New Brunswick is currently using one area code. New Brunswick does not utilize any area code overlays. Area code 506 covers
all of the province of New Brunswick.
From 1947 until 1955 New Brunswick utilized area code 902. When area code 902 was established in 1947 it served the three provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia
and Prince Edward Island. Newfoundland and Labrador were added in 1949 when they joined Canada. In 1955 area code 902 was split to form area code 506 which was assigned to New Brunswick, Newfoundland and
Labrador. In 1962 area code 506 was split to form area code 709 which was assigned to Newfoundland and Labrador. Area code 506 then served New Brunswick exclusively.
