624 area code — New York geographic
624 is the area code assigned to New York, in service since November 16, 2023, Eastern time. It is part of the 624/716 overlay complex — these codes share the same territory. Note that porting and VoIP mean a 624 number can be used from anywhere — the code marks where the number was assigned.
624 was created from 716 in 2023.
If a 624 call asks for money or personal data, treat the displayed number as unverified: hang up and reach the organization through its published number. Numbering data locates numbers, not callers.
Dialing: 10D locally, 1+10D to other codes (1+10 digit dialing permissible at service provider discretion.).
NANPA projects numbering capacity for the 624/716 complex to exhaust in 2Q 2095.
FAQ
Is 624 a toll-free number?
No. 624 is a geographic code; calls are billed like any other domestic call. Toll-free codes are 800, 833, 844, 855, 866, 877 and 888.
Why do 716 and 624 cover the same place?
They are overlays: when a code runs low on numbers, a new code is added over the same territory instead of splitting it. The 624/716 complex shares one service area, and local calls are dialed with 10 digits.
Will 624 run out of numbers?
NANPA's current forecast projects exhaust in 2Q 2095 — decades of capacity remain.
