Area code 347

Area code 347 serves New York, including New York City Zone 06, New York City Zone 07 and New York City Zone 03 (Eastern time). It has been in service since October 1, 1999 and shares its area with 465, 718, 917 and 929.

Numbers starting with 347 drew 1,019 reports to the FTC from Aug 14, 2026 to Nov 11, 2026 and 780 complaints to the FCC since November 2023. The number on your screen can be faked, so a 347 number proves nothing about where a call came from.
