The North American Numbering Plan is an organized system of numbering plan areas in the United States, Canada, and some Caribbean nations. Each area is assigned an area code, which is a three-digit number that is most easily remembered by its corresponding area letters. In the 813 area code, the 8 stands for Florida, the 1 stands for the first of the state's area codes, and the 3 stands for the third digit in an area code, often which region it is in geographically. The North American Numbering Plan is administered by the North American Telephone and Telegraph Corporation, an organization made up of representatives of the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
