On January 30, 2026 a new area code 471 will enter service in Mississippi, USA. The new Numbering Plan Area will overlay existing NPA 662, serving roughly the northern half of the state. Some of the larger communities currently using area code 662: Clarksdale, Greenville, Holly Springs, Olive Branch, Southaven or Tupelo.
The dialing plan within NPA's 662 borders is as follows: 10 digits for local calls and 1+10 digits for toll calls. This same dialing plan will apply with the introduction of the new NPA 471 in January 2026.
