The 712 area code is a telephone numbering plan code used for the state of Iowa. It was established in 1947, making it one of the original 86 area codes assigned at that time. The 712 area code covers most of the state’s western region, including the cities of Sioux City, Council Bluffs, and Fort Dodge. It also includes portions of Omaha and the Sioux City metropolitan area.
The North American Numbering Plan (NANP) is a system of telephone numbering assigned to Canada, the United States and its territories, and some Caribbean countries. NANP assigns unique area codes to each of the individual economies and assigns telephone numbers within those area codes. The NANP is administered by the North American Numbering Plan Administration, a body created by the FCC and jointly operated by the U.S., Canada and Mexico. NANP has greatly simplified the process of establishing telephone numbers and enabled easier access to switching services without the need for manual intervention. As a result, users of 712 area codes can easily contact both domestic and international callers.
