Italian Carrier Ranges and Number Format
Italian mobile numbers follow the format +39 3XX XXXXXXX. The leading 3 digit identifies the number as mobile, and the subsequent prefix indicates the carrier allocation:
- TIM (Telecom Italia)— 338, 339, 347, 348, 349, 366, 368, 389
- Vodafone IT— 340, 341, 342, 345, 346
- WindTre— 320, 327, 328, 329, 380, 388
- Iliad Italy— 351, 352, 353, 354, 355, 356, 357, 358, 375
Numbers from these carrier ranges pass the phone-type validation used by services that distinguish genuine Italian mobile numbers from non-geographic or VoIP ranges. Italy's telecoms regulator AGCOM enforces strict SIM registration rules, which means carrier-origin number ranges carry higher trust with Italian platforms compared to virtual-only prefixes.

Is an Italy temp number shared or private?
