Starting January 30, 2026, the 471 area code will be introduced in northern Mississippi, overlaying the existing 662 area code to meet rising demand for phone numbers.
The new code will be assigned only when all 662 numbers are exhausted, and existing 662 numbers will remain unchanged.
Both area codes will require 10-digit dialing for local calls.
The Mississippi Public Service Commission urges residents and businesses to update contact lists and automated systems to accommodate the change, ensuring continued seamless communication.
