Additional
Information
- United States Pacific Islands (+670, +671, +684)
- This describes American Samoa (country code 684). Guam (country
code 671), and the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands (country
code 670).
- There are proposals to move these territories into the North American
Numbering Plan (NANP, i.e. country code/world zone 1). The NANP
area codes 670, 671 and 684 have been reserved for this purpose,
matching the existing country code assignments.
- Bellcore officially announced that Guam (671) and Northern Marianas
(670) would be incorporated into the NANP. These codes began service
on 1 July 1997. The international country codes were to be removed
from service as of 1 July 1998. See areacode-info.com pages on 670
Northern Marianas and 671 Guam.
- No announcement has been made regarding American Samoa's (+684)
inclusion in the NANP at this writing, although 684 is a reserved
area code in the NANP in case that should happen. That territory
uses 7-digit subscriber numbers and can thus be easily integrated
into the NANP.
- Territories that join the NANP would be expected to relinquish
their respective country codes according to apparent NANP policy.
- Subscriber numbers would also have to conform to the standard
7-digit format, within each area code, which is the case throughout
the United States Pacific Possessions (i.e. American Samoa, Guam,
and the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands) plus three United
Nations Pacific Islands (Marshall Islands, Micronesia, and Palau).
