Want to build trust with customers in Salt Lake City, Ogden, or Provo? A 801 area code gives your business instant local credibility in northern Utah, whether your team is based in-state or working remotely.
While 801 is still widely recognized, it has reached capacity for new numbers. You can easily port an existing 801 number to DialLink or choose the official overlay code, 385, to serve the same region. Either way, you'll stay connected and sound professional with DialLink's AI-powered phone system.
Why Choose a 801 Area Code?
Established in 1947, the 801 area code originally covered the entire state of Utah. Today, it is dedicated to the Salt Lake City metropolitan area, including cities like Provo, Ogden, Layton, Sandy, and Bountiful. It's a familiar and trusted area code for Utah businesses, especially those in government, healthcare, education, and tech.
Due to increased demand, 385 was added as an overlay in 2009. Both codes serve the same geographic area, so whether you keep your 801 number or choose 385, you're still showing up locally.
