Area code 385

Area code 385 serves Utah, including Salt Lake City, Kaysville and Provo (Mountain time). It has been in service since March 29, 2009 and shares its area with 801.

Numbers starting with 385 drew 1,275 reports to the FTC from Aug 14, 2026 to Nov 11, 2026 and 662 complaints to the FCC since November 2023. The number on your screen can be faked, so a 385 number proves nothing about where a call came from.

Phone companies holding 385 exchanges

Each exchange (the three digits after the area code) is assigned to one carrier. 100% of these exchanges are pooled: their numbers are handed out in blocks of 1,000 to other carriers, so the holder below is not always the company serving a given number.
