Additional information about MD phone numbers

The 301 area code was one of the original 86 codes established by AT&T back in 1947 and originally covered the entire state. In spite of the consistent expansion of the Baltimore-Washington metropolitan area, it wasn’t until 1991 that eastern Maryland was split off into code 410.

In the years that followed, the demand for landlines and mobile numbers only increased, leading to the decision to implement the 240-overlay code in 1997. That same year, 443 was also introduced. The 667 overlay was introduced relatively recently, coming onto the scene in 2012.

Important points about Maryland telephone numbers

The MD area code and other parts of a phone number

A Maryland number, like any other American telephone number, is composed of several elements: a one-digit country code, a three-digit local area code, and, finally, a seven-digit phone number. This seven-digit phone number is, in turn, made up of a three-digit exchange number and a four-digit subscriber number.

So, a number example would be 1-301-1234567 or 1-410-1234567.

Is a Maryland local number or a toll-free number better for my business?

Whether you choose a toll-free or a local number depends on what your aims are. If you’d like to encourage your customers to call you, then a toll-free number might be best; this means your company will cover the cost of all incoming calls, taking the pressure off your clients. Here at MightyCall, we offer both options, letting you choose the one that best suits your needs.

Will people be able to tell that I’m not in MD even if I have a Maryland area code number?

No, people will not be able to tell that you’re not in MD if you use a Maryland prefix. When you use one of these codes with our virtual phone numbers, it will seem to your customer as if the call is coming from a number in Maryland.
