No Office Needed

Want to connect with customers in Downtown Atlanta, Decatur, or East Point? A 404 number is one of the most recognized and respected area code numbers in the Southeast. Known as Atlanta’s original area code, it immediately signals you’re local, even if your business is remote.

Because of high demand, new numbers are no longer available. If you already own a 404 number, you can easily port it to DialLink. If not, overlay codes 470, 678, and 770 are available now. They serve the same geographic region across the Atlanta area.

Businesses using Atlanta phone numbers work in the Eastern Time Zone. This matches the standard business time zone across Georgia and the southeastern United States.

Why Choose a 404 Area Code?

Area code 404 covers central Atlanta and nearby cities. It includes Decatur, East Point, Brookhaven, and College Park. It was one of the first area codes set up in the U.S. It has become a symbol of Atlanta’s identity, especially in technology, culture, and business.

As Atlanta has grown into a major national and regional hub, the demand for local phone numbers has surged. That's why 470, 678, and 770 were introduced as overlays for the area. They serve the exact same region and are assigned to new phone numbers in the area.

Whether you are expanding into Georgia, you can use a 470, 678, or 770 number. It helps you appear local in Atlanta. It also works well if you are growing a remote team.
