North American Area Code Directory

What is an area code?

In a North American phone number, the three digits after the +1 country calling code are the area code. For example, +1 220 is an Ohio numbering assignment; +220 without the 1 is The Gambia’s country calling code. Learn the difference between country codes and area codes.

Area codes can overlap in one region, and phone numbers can be moved or spoofed. Use this directory to understand numbering assignments, not to identify a caller.
