Find any 474- phone number in Saskatchewan
The 474 area code is a telephone area code in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) for the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It was created as an overlay of area codes 306 and 639, which were both exhausted. The 474 area code covers most of South-central Saskatchewan, including the cities of Moose Jaw, Prince Albert, and Saskatoon. It was introduced on February 26, 2021, and all numbers must include 11-digit dialing, even when calling mobile phones within the same area code.
The North American Numbering Plan is a system that governs telephone numbering in the United States, Canada and various Caribbean nations. It was established in 1947 to facilitate communication between long-distance carriers and to simplify billing for businesses. It divides each geographic region into specific subdivisions, each associated with its own 3-digit area code. The 474 area code is the latest to join a system that now includes over 800 area codes. In addition to regular phone numbers, area codes are also used for toll-free and premium numbers, satellite services, virtual numbers, and fax lines.
