Alaska area codes
The table below lists every active Alaska area code with its coverage, service date and prefix count.
Geographically the map reads: 907 (Anchorage). Each code page lists its full coverage down to individual rate centers.
Every Alaska code keeps Alaska time.
Every Alaska community — Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, Wasilla among the largest — shares the single 907 code, a simplicity most states lost to overlays years ago.
907, in service since 1957, anchors Anchorage, carries 657 active prefixes across 253 rate centers, split among 45 carriers. 210 of its prefixes are pooled — shared between carriers in thousands-number blocks. It is the only area code serving Alaska. NANPA projects its capacity to last until 4Q 2047 — no relief needed for decades. Local dialing is ten digits.
Note that toll-free codes (800, 833, 844, 855, 866, 877, 888) sit outside this list — they have no geographic tie to Alaska or anywhere else, and are assigned individually from the national SMS/800 registry.
As everywhere in the NANP: these codes say where numbers were issued, not where callers are. Per-code pages break coverage down to rate centers and prefixes.
| Code | Major area | In service | Overlay complex | Prefixes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 907 | Anchorage | 1957 | — | 657 |
