Prefix Blocks (NPA-NXX)

758 active prefixes in this area code, assigned as 5,875 thousands-blocks — pooling splits one prefix across several carriers, so each block is listed separately with the rate centre it is homed to, its carrier of record, and the switch that serves it.

Ten-Digit Dialing Required

318 now shares its territory with 457. Because of this overlay, local calls in this region must be dialed with all ten digits.

About Area Code 318

Area code 318 is a North American Numbering Plan (NANP) telephone area code assigned to Louisiana, United States. It is one of 6 area codes serving Louisiana. As population and demand for phone numbers grew, the region was divided into multiple numbering plan areas to avoid exhausting the available 7-digit number pool.

Is 318 a valid area code?

Yes. 318 is an active North American Numbering Plan (NANP) area code, currently assigned to Louisiana, United States. It is safe to answer or dial calls using this area code.

Where is area code 318?

Area code 318 covers 118 cities and communities in Louisiana, including Alexandria, Arcadia, Athens, Bastrop, Belcher, and 113 more localities. This is based on telephone company rate center data — the geographic areas carriers use to determine local calling boundaries and to assign numbers when a business or individual requests a phone number in a specific city.

What time zone is area code 318?

All numbers in the 318 area code observe Central Time (IANA timezone: America/Chicago). Central Time is UTC−6 in winter (CST) and UTC−5 in summer (CDT). When placing a call to a 318 number from a different time zone, check the current local time above to avoid calling outside of business hours.

How do I dial a 318 number?

From within Louisiana, dial the 7-digit local number directly if calling within the same rate center, or dial 1 + 318 + 7-digit number for long-distance calls within North America. From outside the US or Canada, dial your country's international exit code followed by 1 318 XXX XXXX. The country code for both the United States and Canada in NANP is +1.

Formatting 318 phone numbers

Format 318 numbers using E.164 notation as required by RFC 3966: prefix with +1 and omit dashes and parentheses (e.g., +13185550100). This format ensures tel: links work correctly on all mobile browsers and VoIP apps. See the tel: URI formatting guide for complete examples.
