Area code 819

Quebec, Canada

National (819) 555-0123, E.164 +18195550123

How the 769 central office codes (exchanges) of area code 819 were allocated, from the North American Numbering Plan's records: to which carrier, as which line type. A 819 number is mobile, fixed line or VoIP according to its exchange, the three digits after the area code; the allocation is the original one (below).

The exchange patterns follow the original allocations; a number ported since keeps its digits but not necessarily its carrier or its line type.

Questions developers ask

Where is area code 819?
Area code 819 is in Quebec, Canada: all 769 of its exchanges on record are there. From abroad it is dialled +1 819, then the seven-digit number.
Is a 819 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 769 exchanges on record in 819, 163 (21%) were allocated as mobile, 585 (76%) as fixed line and 21 (3%) 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 819?
23 carriers hold exchanges in 819 on record; the most: Bell (259), Telebec (124) and Videotron (101). 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 819 phone number?
In E.164 a 819 number matches ^\+1819[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 (819) 555-0123. The exchange patterns on this page narrow it to the exchanges allocated as mobile, fixed line or VoIP.
