Can i use BC558PNP bipolar transistor instead of BC558NPN?

[electronicslab]

I can't find BC558NPN transistor,will it work if i use 558PNP transistor instead?

NO
what could it be if you use salt for sugar?

There's no BC558 NPN transistor. BC558 is always a PNP type. That's why you can't find it.
An NPN type would be for example BC548.

I got BC558 here:

Yes, it's PNP. Why do you think, it could be NPN?
