Nevada area codes
Nevada uses 3 area codes. The oldest is 702, in service since 1947; the newest is 725, from 2014. Across them 1,602 of 2,358 possible number blocks are allocated, 67.9% of capacity. 702 is at or past 95%, which is why new numbers there come from overlays rather than the original code. AT&T holds 19.0% of the 1,602 assigned blocks across the state, ahead of Lumen at 18.7%; a further 12.2% sits with CLEC and VoIP holders outside the national carriers. In the 33 days to 30 October 2026, FTC complaints named a Nevada caller ID 3,063 times – 1.3% of all complaints in the window, most often 775 with 1,275 (13th of 422 nationally). The state spans 2 time zones (Pacific and Mountain); 775 crosses a zone boundary alone. NANPA records 108 rate centers across the state's codes, and local calls take all ten digits.
All 3 codes
| Code | In service | Blocks used | Largest holder | Complaints | Shares area with |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 702 | 1947 | 786/786 | Lumen 32.8% | 1,089 | 725 |
| 725 | 2014 | 215/786 | Onvoy 21.4% | 699 | 702 |
| 775 | 1998 | 601/786 | AT&T 30.4% | 1,275 | no overlay |
Block share is share of allocated number blocks, not of subscribers. Complaint counts cover 28 Sep – 30 Oct 2026 and reflect spoofed caller IDs as much as real calls.
How full Nevada’s codes are
A code holds at most 786 blocks of 10,000 numbers each. When a code fills up, the administrator does not reclaim numbers – it adds an overlay, and from then on new numbers in the same area come from the new code.
Full or nearly full
Who holds the number blocks
Counted from every assigned block in the state: 1,602 blocks, each with the holder NANPA recorded for it. Percentages are measured, not estimated.
| Holder | Blocks | Share of Nevada | Largest in |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT&T | 304 | 19% | 1 code |
| Lumen | 300 | 18.7% | 1 code |
| Onvoy | 214 | 13.4% | 1 code |
| T-Mobile | 197 | 12.3% | – |
| Other CLEC / VoIP | 196 | 12.2% | – |
| Verizon | 173 | 10.8% | – |
| Bandwidth | 54 | 3.4% | – |
| TPx | 38 | 2.4% | – |
| Comcast | 35 | 2.2% | – |
| Frontier | 28 | 1.7% | – |
| Charter | 22 | 1.4% | – |
| Peerless | 12 | 0.7% | – |
“Other CLEC / VoIP” is not one company: it is every holder outside the national carriers counted together, which is what resellers and app-based numbers look like in the records. This is allocation, not subscribers.
Spam complaints naming Nevada codes
FTC Do Not Call complaints where the caller ID shown was a Nevada number, 28 Sep – 30 Oct 2026 (33 days). Caller IDs on spam calls are routinely faked, so these are complaints about the code, not calls proven to come from it.
What people said the calls were about
- Other – 1,066
- Reducing your debt (credit cards, mortgage, student loans) – 401
- Calls pretending to be government, businesses, or family and friends – 388
- Dropped call or no message – 161
- No Subject Provided – 59
Topics as the complainant chose them, for the codes where the FTC published a topic.
How Nevada got its codes
1 in the 1940s, 1 in the 1990s, 1 in the 2010s. Each code after the first was split off from or overlaid on one already in service.
- 1947 702 goes into service.
- 1998 775 goes into service, split from or overlaid on 702.
- 2014 725 goes into service, split from or overlaid on 702.
Time zones
Nevada is in Pacific, Mountain time. 775 covers more than one zone within a single area code, so the code alone does not tell you what time it is there. NANPA notes: PT/MT only for W Wendover.
Frequently asked about Nevada area codes
How many area codes does Nevada have?
3 in service. They are 702, 725 and 775.
What is the oldest area code in Nevada?
702, in service since 1947. Every later code in the state was split off from or overlaid on an existing one.
What is the newest area code in Nevada?
725, from 2014, overlaying 702.
Is Nevada running out of numbers?
702 is at or past 95% of capacity, but NANPA has not opened relief planning for it, so no new code is announced.
What time zone is Nevada in?
It spans 2: Pacific and Mountain. 775 covers more than one zone within a single area code, so the code alone does not tell you the time.
Which Nevada area code gets the most spam complaints?
775 – 1,275 FTC complaints in the 33 days to 30 October 2026, 13th of 422 codes nationally. Those are complaints about the caller ID shown, and spam callers routinely fake a local-looking number, so this says the code is imitated often, not that the calls come from there.
Which carrier holds the most Nevada numbers?
AT&T, with 19.0% of the 1,602 blocks assigned across Nevada, ahead of Lumen at 18.7%. This is allocation of blocks by the numbering administrator, not a count of subscribers – people keep their numbers when they switch carriers.
Do you have to dial 10 digits in Nevada?
Yes. Every code in the state is in an overlay or ten-digit dialing area, so a local call needs the area code too. Dialing seven digits reaches a recording, not a wrong number.
