📍 Geographic Location of Livorno
Geographic Coverage and Administrative Jurisdiction
The Italian area code 0586 is a Geographic National Destination Code (NDC) assigned to the province of Livorno, in the region of Tuscany (Toscana). This code serves the city of Livorno itself and the surrounding municipalities within the province, including but not limited to Cecina, Piombino, Rosignano Marittimo, and San Vincenzo. The area is part of the PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) and is administered under the national numbering plan supervised by the Autorità per le Garanzie nelle Comunicazioni (AGCOM).
Dialing Formats and Caller Instructions
For local callers within Italy, the number is dialed in the national format: 0586 followed by the subscriber number, which typically consists of 6 to 7 digits. For example, a local call to a fixed line in Livorno would be dialed as 0586 123456. When calling from abroad, the international format requires the Italian country code +39, so the full number becomes +39 0586 123456. It is important to note that the leading '0' of the area code is not omitted when dialing from outside Italy, as is the case with some other countries; the Italian numbering plan retains the '0' in the international dialing sequence. Therefore, international callers must dial +39 0586 followed by the local number.
Overlay and Numbering Considerations
As of the latest AGCOM updates, there is no overlay code for the 0586 area; the code remains exclusive to the Livorno province. However, due to number portability, a fixed-line number with the 0586 prefix may be served by any operator, and it is possible that a number originally assigned to this geographic area has been ported to a VoIP or mobile service. Nonetheless, the geographic significance of the prefix remains for routing and identification purposes. Callers should be aware that the cost of a call to a 0586 number depends on the caller's operator and subscription plan, but it is generally treated as a national geographic call.
Practical Examples for Callers
