Three digits find one code. A city, state, or province lists every code there. Covers every area code in service in the US, Canada, and the US territories.
Your answer
Type an area code, a full phone number, or a place above. You’ll see where the code is, the time there right now, and whether now is a good time to call back.
Keep your local number
Your area code tells callers you’re close by. FrontDesk Talk works with the number you already have: forward your calls with a short code, or port the number to us, and every call gets answered 24/7. Get your forwarding codes or read the porting guide.
Built from NANPA’s area code database and public time zone sources, checked in October 2026. The times follow each place’s current rules, including the 2026 changes in Canada, where several provinces stopped changing their clocks. An area code shows where a number started. People keep their numbers when they move, so ask when the time matters. Your search stays in your browser.

A code that covers more than one province or territory, like 902 or 867, shows under each one.
An area code tells you where, and when to call
Every US and Canada phone number starts with a three-digit area code. It tells you the state or province where the number was set up, and with it the time zone. That helps when a missed call comes from a number you don’t know, or when you need to call a customer back and don’t want to ring them at dinner or before they’re up.
This lookup covers every area code in service in the US, Canada, and the US territories, built from the numbering plan administrator’s own list. It shows the overlays that share an area, the codes that cross a time zone line, and the time right now in each zone, including the 2026 changes in Canada, where several provinces stopped changing their clocks.
How to use the area code lookup
1
Type a code, number, or place
Enter a three-digit area code, paste a full phone number, or type a city, state, or province.
2
Read the result
See where the code is, its main cities, the time zone, the time there now, and any other codes that serve the same area.
3
Call at a good time for them
Use their local time to call back while it’s daytime there. If a code covers two time zones, check which one your customer is in.
What an area code can and can’t tell you
An area code shows where a number was first set up. People keep their cell numbers when they move, and they can take a number to a new carrier, so a 212 number might belong to someone in Denver. Treat the area code as a good hint about where someone is, not proof. When the time matters, like for a callback, ask.
Overlays: two codes, one area
When an area runs low on numbers, regulators usually add an overlay: a new area code that covers the same place as the old one. Existing numbers keep their code, and new numbers can get either one. That is why Dallas has 214, 469, 972, and 945, and why calls inside an overlay area take all 10 digits, even to the house next door.
Codes that cross a time zone line
Some area codes cover two time zones. 850 in the Florida Panhandle covers Pensacola on Central Time and Tallahassee on Eastern. 208 covers Boise on Mountain Time and Coeur d’Alene on Pacific. Most of Arizona never changes its clocks, but the Navajo Nation does. The lookup shows the time in every zone a code covers.
Good times to call back
For a callback someone asked for, daytime on a weekday in their time zone is the safe choice. For sales and marketing calls, federal rules in the US allow calls only between 8 AM and 9 PM where the person you are calling is, and some states set tighter hours. This is general information, not legal advice.

Questions
Where is an area code from?
Type it in above to see the state or province, the main cities, and the time zone. Keep in mind that people keep their numbers when they move, so an area code shows where a number started, not always where the person is today.
What time zone is an area code in?
Most area codes sit in one time zone. A few cross a line, like 850 in Florida, 208 in Idaho, and 812 in Indiana. The lookup shows each zone a code covers and the time there right now.
Why does one city have more than one area code?
Busy areas run out of numbers, so a new code is added on top of the old one. This is called an overlay. All the codes serve the same place, and you dial all 10 digits for local calls.
Is a call from 876 or 809 from the US?
No. Those codes use the same +1 dialing as the US and Canada, but 876 is Jamaica and 809 is the Dominican Republic. Calls and texts to them are international and can cost more. The lookup tells you when a code is outside the US and Canada.
Which parts of Canada stopped changing their clocks?
British Columbia moved to UTC-7 all year in March 2026. Alberta, Manitoba, the Northwest Territories, and northwestern Ontario around Kenora won’t turn their clocks back in November 2026. Saskatchewan and Yukon already kept one time all year. The lookup uses the new times.
Can I keep my local number with FrontDesk Talk?
Yes. Forward your calls to FrontDesk Talk or port your number to us, and callers keep dialing the number they already know. Every plan keeps your current number.
