Getting a Italian virtual phone number for your business

Milan, Rome, Turin: Italy is the third-largest market in the euro area, and an Italian number makes all the difference there. Italians are wary of foreign calls, all the more so since the campaigns against abusive telemarketing.

Good news for a company based outside Italy: an Italian mobile number is available with an address anywhere in the world. A landline, on the other hand, requires an address within the area code’s zone. In both cases, proof of address is requested.

Italy stands out above all for how it identifies the legal representative: an ID with its number, the issuing authority and the date of issue, but also date and place of birth, tax code or equivalent, and nationality.

Country code and number format

Local (landline)
+39 +39, then the number with its leading 0, which is kept after the country code: 02 Milan, 06 Rome, 011 Turin, 081 Naples. Example: +39 02 1234 5678.
Mobile
+39 +39 3, then usually 9 digits (10 digits in total). Example: +39 312 345 6789.

What you need to know

A 0 that stays

Unlike in France or the UK, Italy keeps the leading 0 of landline numbers after the country code: +39 02 for Milan, not +39 2. Mobile numbers start with 3, with no 0.

Spoofed calls blocked

Since 2025, Italian carriers block calls from abroad that display an Italian number (AGCOM resolution 106/25/CONS), for landlines since August and for mobiles since November. One more reason to use a number genuinely assigned to your company.

The representative’s tax code

You will be asked for the legal representative’s Italian tax code (codice fiscale), or its foreign equivalent: for a director based outside Italy, their tax identification number.
