About Colorado Area Codes

Colorado is served by 4 area codes within the North American Numbering Plan (NANP). The area codes are distributed across different cities and regions of the state to accommodate the demand for phone numbers.

All Colorado phone numbers use the international country code +1, followed by the three-digit area code and a seven-digit local number, for a total of 11 digits when dialing internationally.

Some areas of Colorado have overlay area codes, meaning two or more area codes serve the same geographic area. In these regions, 10-digit dialing is mandatory for all local calls.
