Additional information about NJ phone numbers

201 was the first area code to be introduced to New Jersey, as it was one of the original 86 numbers created back in the 1940s when the North American Numbering Plan was first put into place. Over the next fifty years, the code split three times to allow for the creation of more NJ phone numbers. This was done to accommodate the rising need for landlines and, later, mobile numbers that were seen throughout the entirety of the US and beyond.

Important points about New Jersey telephone numbers

The NJ area code and other parts of a phone number

A New Jersey number is formatted in the same way as other telephone numbers, being made up of a 1-digit country code, a 3-digit local area code, and a 7-digit phone number. These 7-digits can be further split up into a 3-digit exchange number and a 4-digit station number.

So, a number example for the city would look like this: 1-201-1234567.

Is a New Jersey 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 NJ even if I have a New Jersey area code number?

No, people will not be able to tell that you’re not in NJ if you use a New Jersey 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 New Jersey.
