Now, let’s delve into why a 347 area code could be advantageous.
Where is area code 347?
The 347 area code primarily serves New York City, excluding Manhattan. Additionally, it covers surrounding areas such as:
Bellerose Terrace
Brooklyn
Jamaica
Long Island City (distinct from Long Island, which employs the 516 and 363 area codes)
Richmond Hill
Staten Island
Operating in the Eastern time zone, it forms part of an overlay complex with the 718, 917, and 929 area codes, all serving the same region. Introduced in 1999, the 347 prefix complements nearby area codes like 646 for Manhattan.

Why a New York area code is necessary for your company
Local numbers lend credibility to small businesses and allow larger enterprises to establish a local presence without leasing physical office space. With a 347 area code number for New York, you can virtually expand into Kings, Queens, the Bronx, Richmond, and more—without the overhead costs of physical office space.
Moreover, incorporating a local number into marketing campaigns increases the likelihood of customer calls, as individuals are more inclined to dial local numbers, free from long-distance charges. Additionally, when calling recipients see a local New York area code on their caller ID, they’re more likely to answer.
From a business perspective, New York offers unparalleled opportunities—it’s a global financial hub boasting major banks, corporations, and renowned sports teams like the New York Yankees and New York Knicks. With its vast population and robust economy, having a New York area code is invaluable for reaching customers and prospects in this dynamic region.
