Telephone calls
International calls
Dial the international access number (00), the country code,
the area code and the subscriber’s number. Call 124 for
directory assistance.
National calls
For calls outside Tirana, dial 0, the city code and the subscriber’s
number. Call 14 for domestic directory assistance.
Local calls
Tirana numbers have seven digits, all starting with a 2 or a 3.
Calling Albania from abroad
Dial the country code (355), then the city code (Tirana is 4)
or the mobile phone number without the initial zero.
Mobile phones
Four providers are active in Albania. AMC numbers start
with 068, Eagle Mobile numbers with 067, Plus with 066
and Vodafone numbers with 069. You can easily purchase
pre-paid SIM cards for around 600 lek at the providers’
shops; you’ll need ID and a local address (which can be that
of your hotel). Recharge cards are widely available across
the country. National rates for pre-paid calls are between
30-55 lek per minute.

Public telephones
Some pay phones do work, but those at hotels and post
offices often work better. Telephone cards are available at
post offices. 50 unit cards cost 560 lek; 100 units 980 lek;
200 units 1800 lek. New cards should be wrapped in clear
plastic. People on the street also sell cards; beware that
you’ll likely be paying more. Don’t let them get away until
you have verified the card at a public telephone. If you don’t
plan to talk away a whole card, you can rent one from the
‘businessmen’ lingering near the phone boxes. Prices will
run about 15-20 lek per unit.
Internet cafés
Free wifi is increasingly common in city-centre cafés,
restaurants and hotel lobbies such as the Rogner. It’s
also available free at the airport. In the internet cafés
listed below, expect to pay 100-150 lek per hour for
internet access (and plenty of noise from little boys
playing Counterstrike).
