Overlay System
Area code 879 was assigned as an overlay for the 709 area code in 2017 to provide relief. This overlay was activated on February 17, 2024, following a rescheduling by the CRTC. As part of this change, ten-digit dialling was implemented across Newfoundland and Labrador on April 1, 2023.
