History of 249 Area Code

Area code 249 started providing service on March 19, 2011. It was the 11th area code in Ontario and one of the 5 area codes introduced that year. 249 was created as an overlay of 705 to address the overuse of telephone numbers.

Initially, the 705 area code served the western half of Golden Horseshoe and the northern part of Ontario. In 1962, its geographical region was split, and northwest Ontario was assigned the new area code 807. Then, after four decades, the remaining part also got a new area code, 249. Since then, a 10-digit dialing format has been necessary for all calls.
