Questions developers ask
- Where is area code 354?
- Area code 354 is in Quebec, Canada: all 64 of its exchanges on record are there. From abroad it is dialled +1 354, then the seven-digit number.
- Is a 354 number mobile or landline?
- Either: in the North American Numbering Plan the line type belongs to the exchange (the three digits after the area code), not to the area code. Of the 64 exchanges on record in 354, 3 (5%) were allocated as mobile, 57 (89%) as fixed line and 4 (6%) as VoIP. A number can have been ported since, to another carrier and even to another line type.
- Which carriers have numbers in area code 354?
- 6 carriers hold exchanges in 354 on record; the most: Cogeco (30), IXICA Communications (23) and ISP Telecom (4). These are the original allocations: with number portability, a number may be served by another carrier today, which only a live carrier lookup (an HLR or MNP query) can tell.
- How do I validate a 354 phone number?
- In E.164 a 354 number matches ^\+1354[2-9]\d{6}$: +1, the area code, a central office code that does not start with 0 or 1, then four digits. Written nationally it reads (354) 555-0123. The exchange patterns on this page narrow it to the exchanges allocated as mobile, fixed line or VoIP.
