Area codes 876 and 658 are telephone area codes in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) for Jamaica.
Having telephone service to the United States as early as 1936, it was not until 1962 that Jamaica had a high capacity link for dial service to the US network, which was operated as part of the NANP numbering plan area 809. 809 was designated for parts of the Caribbean region in 1958, and was divided in the 1990s for service to individual countries. Area code 876 was created on 1 May 1997 for Jamaica.[1] In 2019, the numbering plan area received a second area code, 658, in formation of an overlay to relieve central office code exhaustion.
The telephone country code for reaching telephone numbers in the country is 1. From other NANP member regions, the dialing pattern is 1-658/876 NXX-XXXX, where 1 is the NANP long-distance trunk prefix.
