About Area Codes in Yukon
Yukon (YT) is a Canadian territory in the Northern region. With a 2023 Statistics Canada population estimate of 45,750 residents, Yukon is served by 1 active area code: 867. The provincial capital is Whitehorse and the largest city is Whitehorse.
Canadian area code assignments are managed by the Canadian Numbering Administrator (CNA) under the broader North American Numbering Plan (NANP). As Yukon's population and demand for phone numbers grew — driven by cell phones, VoIP lines, and pagers — regulators either split existing area codes or added overlay codes that share territory with the original.
Yukon observes the Mountain time zone. Most of Canada observes Daylight Saving Time from the second Sunday in March through the first Sunday in November, except parts of Saskatchewan which stays on Central Standard Time year-round.
When you receive a call from a Yukon number, the area code tells you only where the number was originally assigned. Because of Local Number Portability (LNP), Canadian callers can keep their phone numbers when moving across provincial lines — so a 867 number is no longer a guarantee the caller is physically in Yukon.
Phone number format in Yukon
All Yukon phone numbers follow the standard 10-digit NANP format: (NPA) NXX-XXXX. For local calls within Yukon, 10-digit dialing is mandatory because of overlay codes. For long-distance calls within Canada or to the US, dial 1 + area code + 7-digit number. From outside North America, dial your international access prefix, then 1 (the NANP country code), then the 10-digit number.
