How do I dial mobiles vs landlines in Kosovo

Kosovo uses country code +383, area codes for landlines, a domestic trunk 0, and international prefix 00 for calls placed from Kosovo. +383 became Kosovo’s dedicated country code in 2017 (replacing earlier +381/+377/+386 usage). Some legacy references may still appear, but +383 is the official code.

From abroad → landlines: exit code → 383 → area code (drop the 0) → subscriber. Example (Prishtina): +383 38 2xx xxx; (Prizren): +383 29 2xx xxx.

From abroad → mobiles: exit code → 383 → mobile prefix (drop the 0) → six-digit subscriber (e.g., +383 44 123 456).

Within Kosovo: landlines to another city use 0 + area + number (e.g., 038 / 029 / 039 / 028 / 0280 / 0290 / 0390); mobiles dial 04x/043/048/049/047 + number.

Number length: national significant numbers are typically 8–9 digits (without +383).
