Area code 807 serves northwestern Ontario, Canada, including cities like Thunder Bay, Kenora, Dryden, and Fort Frances. It was created in 1962 from a split of area code 705 to better address the communications needs of Ontario’s vast northern region. The area is known for its natural resources, Indigenous communities, and wilderness tourism. Due to its low population density, 807 remains a standalone code with no overlays or splits anticipated. It is a vital link for remote and urban areas alike, symbolizing the rugged spirit of northwestern Ontario.
