The ten-digit telephone numbers of the North American Numbering Plan consist of a three-digit numbering plan area code (NPA code), written as the most-significant part of the national telephone number, followed by the three-digit central office code, and the four-digit local line or station number.
Area codes are also assigned for non-geographic purposes. The rules for numbering NPAs do not permit the digits 0 and 1 in the leading position.

The largest telephone numbering plan in North American is the North American Numbering Plan (NANP), serving 25 regions or countries. Other countries maintain an autonomous numbering plan with distinct country codes within the international E.164 specifications by the International Telecommunication Union.
When dialing a telephone number, the area code may have to be preceded by a trunk prefix or national access code for domestic calls, and for international calls by the international access code and country code. Area codes are often quoted by including the national access code. For example, a number in London may be listed as 020 7946 0321.
