Find any 250- phone number in Alaska
The 250 area code belongs to the North American Numbering Plan (NANP). This system is used in the United States, Canada, and many Caribbean countries to divide their countries into “numbering plan areas.” Within these areas, different three-digit codes are assigned to maintain the integrity of the respective NANP country’s telephone numbering system.
The 250 area code specifically is a telephone numbering plan area code with coverage in the Canadian province of British Columbia, including the major cities of Vancouver, Victoria, and Prince George. The 250 area code was one of the original 86 area codes instructed by NANP when the North American Numbering Plan was last developed in 1947. Despite the growth and progress of the modern telephone system, this area code remains active to this day.
