Get a 718 Area Code Number for Your Business

The 718 area code covers Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island β€” the four outer boroughs that make up the backbone of New York City's business landscape. Callifi provides 718 business phone numbers with hosted VoIP, on-site installation, and local support from Midtown Manhattan.

What is the 718 area code?

The 718 area code was introduced in 1984 when it was split from the original 212 code to serve Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. It was the first area code split in New York City history and quickly became the defining identifier for the outer boroughs. Today, 718 remains one of the most recognized area codes in the country β€” it signals a genuine, established New York City business rooted in the neighborhoods that drive the city's economy. From Williamsburg to Astoria, from Fordham Road to the Staten Island Ferry, 718 means New York.

Frequently asked questions

Where is the 718 area code?

The 718 area code covers Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island β€” the four outer boroughs of New York City. It was split from the original 212 area code in 1984.

What's the difference between 718 and 347?

Both 718 and 347 cover the same geographic area β€” Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. 718 was the original outer borough code (1984), and 347 was added in 1999 as an overlay when 718 numbers started running low. They're functionally identical.

Can I get a 718 number if my office is in Manhattan?

Yes. With VoIP, your physical location doesn't need to match your area code. Some Manhattan businesses choose a 718 number to connect with outer borough customers, or maintain numbers in multiple area codes.

Can I port my 718 number to Callifi?

Yes. We port 718 numbers from any carrier with zero downtime. The process takes 3-5 business days and your callers won't notice any change.

Do you provide on-site support in Brooklyn and Queens?

Yes. Callifi provides same-day on-site support throughout all five NYC boroughs, including Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. Our technicians are dispatched from our Midtown Manhattan office.
