Locations for Area Code - 347

Area code 347 is an overlay of 718 and 917, serving New York City boroughs outside Manhattan, including Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. Introduced in 1999, it helped accommodate the high demand for mobile phones, faxes, and landlines in the city’s outer boroughs. Ten-digit dialing is required. Though initially viewed as less prestigious than 718 or 917, 347 has become a common and accepted part of New York’s communications fabric. It now represents everyday life in the boroughs—creative, diverse, and constantly changing—capturing the multicultural, fast-paced rhythm of outer NYC.
