New 465 Area Code Implementation in New York

This document is a guide detailing the implementation of the new 465 area code in the New York 347/718/917/929 area code region. The New York Department of Public Service has approved an all-services area code overlay to accommodate the growing demand for telephone numbers. The new 465 area code will serve the same geographic area as the existing area codes without requiring changes to current phone numbers or dialing procedures. Effective June 18, 2026, customers in the overlay region may receive a number with the new area code when requesting new service or an additional line. The guide outlines the necessary actions for customers, including continuing to dial 1+10 digits for local calls and ensuring that all equipment recognizes the new area code. It also clarifies that existing telephone numbers, pricing, and local call definitions will remain unchanged. Contact information for further inquiries is provided.
