Telephone numbers in Bulgaria are under a full number dialing plan, meaning that the full national number must be dialed for all calls, while it retains the trunk code, '0', for all national dialling. Area codes are prefixed with a trunk code of 0 only when dialled domestically.

For example, to call a number in Sofia, dial:

  • 02 xxx xxxx from a landline in Sofia
  • 02 xxx xxxx from outside Sofia but in Bulgaria
  • +359 2 xxx xxxx from outside Bulgaria
