About Area Code 702
Area code 702 is a North American Numbering Plan (NANP) area code that has been in service since 1947. It is administered by NANPA on behalf of the FCC and serves the Nevada region anchored on Las Vegas.
702 now shares its territory with an overlay code (725). 10-digit dialling is required for local calls within this region because the same 7-digit number can be assigned under either code.
Mobile numbers in 702 are portable: a person who moved away from Las Vegas may still carry a 702 mobile number on their device. If you receive an unexpected call from a 702 number, run it through the reverse lookup tool above for the most accurate, free identification.
