Italy uses country calling code +39. Geographic fixed-line numbers begin with 0, and that zero is part of the national significant number rather than a removable trunk prefix. Keep it both inside Italy and after +39: Rome 06 becomes +39 06, while Milan 02 becomes +39 02.
The examples show a national format and the corresponding international plus format. Actual subscriber lengths can vary where noted.

City guide →Italy introduced complete selection for geographic numbers in the late 1990s. The reform made the district code, including its initial 0, part of the number dialled for every fixed-line call. AGCOM’s service-based plan continues to reserve numbers beginning with 0 for geographic services and lists district indicators of two to four digits.
A district code identifies a geographic numbering district, not an exact municipality, subscriber address or live device location. District boundaries can cover many municipalities and do not necessarily match regional or provincial borders. Number portability, call forwarding and VoIP can weaken location inference, while mobile numbers beginning with 3 are non-geographic.
Italy uses country calling code +39.
Yes. Italy is an exception to the common trunk-prefix rule: the initial 0 belongs to the geographic national number and remains after +39.
No. It describes a numbering-plan association, while portability, forwarding and internet telephony can separate a number from the caller’s present location.
