Most concerns that people seem to have regarding how to call Italy are the mind boggling numbers they need to dial and the expense of placing calls. EZLongDistance is here to simplify both issues.

To start with, you need to understand the codes you would need to dial to make your international call. The international prefix is the code that allows you to dial outside the country you are located in, and each country has its own unique code. Next you need to know the country code of the country you are calling; this is a 1 to 3 digit number. In this case, for Italy the code is 39. Now you will dial the city code and finally the phone number that you wish to be connected to. Simple enough? Let's try this again.

Step 1: Dial the International Call prefix (Dial 011: the code for the U.S.)

Step 2: Dial the Country Code (Dial 39: the country code for Italy)

Step 3: Dial the City Code

Ancona: 071 Bari: 080 Bergamo: 035 Bologna: 051 Brindisi: 831 Cagliari: 070 Capri: 081 Catania: 095 Como: 031 Florence: 055 Genoa: 010 Messina: 090 Milan: 02 Modena: 059 Naples: 081 Padova: 049 Palermo: 091 Pantelleria: 923 Perugia: 075 Pescara: 085 Pisa: 050 Pompei: 081 Portofino: 185 Reggio Clabria: 096 Rimini: 0541 Rome: 06 Savona: 019 Sondrio: 342 Sorrento: 081 Taranto: 099 Torino: 011 Trieste: 040 Turin: 011 Vatican City: 6 Venice: 041 Verona: 045 Vicenza: 444

Step 4: Dial the phone number

If you are in New York and calling a business associate in Venice the numbers you would need to dial would be:

011 + 39 + 041 + Phone Number

International Code + Country Code + City Code + Phone Number
