Geographic Coverage and Administration
The 577 code covers the administrative territories of the municipalities of Rrogozhinë and Kavajë. These areas are part of the Tirana County but are distinct from the Tirana city code (4). Subscribers in this region are typically served by fixed-line operators, and the code is used for both residential and business lines. The region benefits from proximity to the port of Durrës and the capital, making it an attractive location for logistics and light industry.
Overlay and Numbering Considerations
Albania’s numbering plan does not currently implement overlays for geographic codes; each area retains its unique NDC. However, number portability allows subscribers to retain their 577 numbers even if they switch operators, provided they remain within the same geographic area. For callers, it is essential to include the area code for all calls, even for local calls within the same region, as the national dialing plan requires full 9-digit dialing (0 + NDC + subscriber number) for all fixed-line calls.
Practical Guidance for Callers
For local callers within Rrogozhinë or Kavajë, dialing the full national number (including the trunk prefix) is mandatory. For international callers, always replace the leading zero with the +355 country code. Be aware that some businesses may list their numbers in the international format, so ensure you have the correct number of digits after the area code. If you encounter difficulties, verify the subscriber number length, as Albanian fixed-line numbers typically consist of 7 digits after the NDC.
