Some background on Prince Edward Island and its area codes

Prince Edward Island (PEI) utilizes the area code 902, which it shares with Nova Scotia. Established in 1947 as one of the original North American Numbering Plan (NANP) codes, 902 has remained a constant identifier for the region's telecommunications, reflecting its historical and geographical connections with neighboring provinces.

To accommodate growing demand, area code 782 was introduced as an overlay in 2014. This addition allows for more phone numbers without altering existing 902 numbers. The overlay system requires residents to dial ten digits, even for local calls, ensuring sufficient numbering resources for both PEI and Nova Scotia.

The implementation of area codes 902 and 782 aligns with nationwide trends of increasing telecommunications needs. Despite PEI’s relatively small population, the dual area codes facilitate modern connectivity demands. Their introduction reflects broader efforts to modernize telecommunication infrastructures while maintaining historical continuity.
