Revision as of 22:12, 14 July 2007 by VK35 (talk | contribs) (new article, see talk page)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Area code 684 is the number assigned to telephones in American Samoa. The area code system is part of the North American Numbering Plan, NANP.
Access to telephones in this area from telephone outside the region need to be aware of the country code, which is "1". Business cards and letterhead may list their telephone number as +1 (684) xxx-xxxx, where x is also a number. 1 is not only the long distance access prefix within the United States but is also the country code. For example, Singapore callers attempting to reach a telephone number in the 684 area code must dial "001" (service code to access international numbers) then "1" (country code for the United States and countries participating in the NANP) then the desired telephone number.
The 684 area code came into effect on 2 October 2004. Prior to this date, American Samoa did not participate in the NANP.
