Find any 306- phone number in Saskatchewan
The 306 area code is one of the original area codes designated in 1947 by the North American Numbering Plan. It is based in Saskatchewan, a province in Canada, and it covers most of the area’s landline telephones. 306 is not just the area code, but it is also the prefix of 4-digit telephone numbers assigned to many residents and businesses in the province. As of 2016, this area code is home to 8,201,000 people.
The North American Numbering Plan is an international system of numbering telephone exchanges. This plan divides the continent into 80 regions and assigns each region a three-digit number, called an area code. This area code is then further divided into an exchange (or office code) of 3-4 digits, which identifies a particular exchange in the region. This exchange, in turn, can be divided into two or more lines, creating a unique phone number for each line. The 306 area code, for example, serves over 8 million people living in Saskatchewan and is further divided into exchanges of three- to four-digit numbers.
