About the 229 area code
Area code 229 serves Albany, Georgia and extends to Valdosta, Thomasville, Hahira, and Lake Park, with the whole territory observing Eastern time.
Created in 2000 by splitting territory from 912, the code has had a straightforward run since. It carries no overlay and has produced no further codes of its own, so the area it received at creation is the area it holds today.
Dialing note: 229 was carved out of the 912 territory and went into service in 2000.
Numbering details on this page (service dates and overlay status) are checked against the NANPA numbering registry. Registry data as of 07/16/2026.
