How to look up an area code

  1. Enter the area code. Type a 3-digit area code, or paste a full 10-digit phone number.
  2. Look up. The region and time zone are resolved from the bundled NANP dataset in your browser.
  3. Review. See the state / province / territory and its primary time zone, with any multi-zone note.

What an area code actually tells you

An area code — the NPA, in numbering-plan terms — is the first three digits of a ten-digit North American number, and it marks the geographic region the number was assigned in. That is a genuine signal: a 212 number was issued in Manhattan, a 415 in San Francisco. But it is the region of origin, not a live location. Since number portability arrived, people keep their number when they move, and mobile numbers travel with their owner — so a 312 cell phone might ring in Chicago or three time zones away. Read an area code as "where this number started", and confirm anything that matters another way.

One region, many codes — overlays and splits

Early on, each area covered one code and a shortage was fixed with a split — carving the region in two and giving half a new code. That forced everyone in the split-off area to change their number, so the modern fix is the overlay: a new code layered over the same geography, assigned to new lines while existing numbers keep theirs. Overlays are why a single metro now has several codes, and why ten-digit dialing became the norm — with two codes sharing one area, the code is needed to route even a local call. It is also why this tool lists many codes under one state: they are stacked over the same place, not different places.

Regions, time zones and the +1 world

The North American Numbering Plan covers more than the United States: Canada, and about twenty Caribbean nations and territories — the Bahamas, Jamaica, the Dominican Republic, Barbados and more — all share the +1 country code, each with its own set of area codes. Time zone follows the region, and where a state or province straddles a boundary (Texas, Tennessee, Indiana, Ontario, and others) the result names the primary zone and flags the exception rather than pretending an area code sits neatly in one. The full dataset is bundled with this page, so every lookup is instant and local — nothing you type leaves your browser. To place an IP address instead of a phone number, use the IP address lookup.

Frequently asked questions

What does this area code lookup do?
Enter a 3-digit North American area code (or a full 10-digit number) and it shows the state, province or territory the code covers and its primary time zone. All 413 geographic NANP area codes are bundled, so the lookup runs in your browser.
Which area codes are covered?
Every geographic area code in the North American Numbering Plan — the United States and its territories, Canada, and the Caribbean nations that share +1 (the Bahamas, Jamaica, the Dominican Republic and others). Non-geographic codes such as 800 or 411 are not location-based and are not listed.
Can an area code tell me exactly where a caller is?
Only roughly. An area code shows the region it was originally assigned to, but number portability means someone can keep a number after moving, and mobile numbers travel with their owner. Treat it as the region of origin, not a current location.
Why does the time zone say the state spans two zones?
Several states and provinces straddle a time-zone boundary — Texas, Tennessee, Indiana, Ontario and others — so a single area code can cover places in two zones. Where that happens the result shows the primary zone and notes the exception rather than guessing.
What is an overlay area code?
When a region runs out of numbers, a new area code is layered over the same geographic area instead of splitting it. That is why one state has many codes and why 10-digit dialing is now common — the region is the same, only the prefix differs.
Is anything I type sent to a server?
No. The full area-code dataset is bundled with the page, so every lookup happens locally in your browser with no network request.
