A number in Albania is the country code +355 followed by a national number of 8 or 9 digits. The trunk prefix, where there is one, is dropped after the code.
Written locally as 067 212 3456, an example mobile number in Albania is dialed as +355 67 212 3456 from abroad.
Leave out the leading 0 when you dial it with the country code.
Why a call to Albania fails to connect
- Keeping the leading 0: after +355 it is one digit too many, and the network rejects the call.
- Leaving out 00 (or +): without it your carrier reads 355 as the start of a number in Italy, not as a country code.
- A wrong number of digits: a number in Albania has 8 or 9 digits after +355.
