Area code 786 serves southeastern Florida, primarily overlaying the well-known 305 region, which includes vibrant cities such as Miami, Hialeah, and Miami Beach. Introduced in 1998 to accommodate the explosive growth in mobile phones and residential lines, 786 has since become synonymous with Miami's diverse, international character. This area is a major global hub for trade, finance, tourism, and culture. Miami’s downtown skyline is marked by major financial institutions, luxury residential towers, and the headquarters of Latin American operations for numerous multinational corporations. The Port of Miami, one of the largest cruise ports in the world, adds to the city’s economic vitality. Cultural influences from Cuba, the Caribbean, South America, and beyond shape the culinary, linguistic, and artistic scenes in the region. Major employers include Baptist Health South Florida, the University of Miami, American Airlines (at Miami International Airport), and countless hospitality and tech firms. Residents benefit from warm weather, access to world-renowned beaches, and a lifestyle that blends coastal leisure with high-octane business energy. Whether you're targeting a local market or aiming to project a dynamic, international presence, a 786 number connects you to one of the most iconic and business-savvy areas in the United States.
