Find any 346- phone number in Texas
The 346 area code is a geographic area code used in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP). First used in July 2016, the 346 area code was created to provide additional phone numbers to the existing 713, 281, and 832 area codes, located in the Houston metropolitan area. Phone numbers with the 346 code can be located throughout a 10-county region of East Texas, including the city of Dallas.
The North American Numbering Plan is the system that administers and assigns the three-digit area codes of the United States and Canada. It divides the region into a total of 86 numbering plans, 3 of which are located in Texas. Numbers within each area code can range from a 7-digit local number, to a 10-digit full-length phone number. The United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is responsible for making general policy rules concerning the use and assignment of area codes, while the number administrators handle the day-to-day operations, such as creating new area codes when they are needed.
