Starting October 2025, Metro Detroit will add area code 679, requiring 10-digit dialing for all local calls.
Starting October 2025, residents and businesses in Metro Detroit will need to use the new 679 area code alongside the existing 313 and 248 codes.
The change is part of a nationwide effort to meet growing demand for phone numbers due to increased use of mobile devices and internet-connected services.
Customers will not need to change their current numbers, but must begin dialing all local calls with the full 10-digit number, including the area code, to avoid call failures.
The transition is expected to be seamless for most users, but officials urge early preparation to prevent disruptions.
