Bulgaria Dialing Notes
When calling within Bulgaria, dial the area code with the leading '0' (e.g., 02 for Sofia). When calling from abroad, omit the '0' and dial +359 followed by the area code and local number. Mobile numbers typically start with 87, 88, 89, or 98-99 and are dialed in full after +359 (e.g., +359 888 123 456).
