About the 703 area code

Area code 703 covers northern Virginia: Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax County, Loudoun, and Prince William, the Virginia half of the Washington, DC metro. It is one of the original area codes from 1947 and once covered nearly all of Virginia before 804 split off in 1973 and 540 in 1995. Locals treat 703 as the established NoVA code, distinct from 202 in the District and 301 in Maryland. It reads as a business with roots in the region.

A business with a 703 number signals northern Virginia to customers in Arlington, Fairfax, Reston, and beyond, which matters in a metro where people screen unfamiliar codes aggressively. It suits contractors, cleaning services, and real estate agents working Fairfax and Loudoun counties, as well as consultants serving federal contractors along the Dulles corridor. The 571 overlay covers the same territory and is seen as equally local, but 703 is the code residents associate with longtime area businesses.

Who uses a 703 business number

  • Contractors and home services

    Homeowners in Fairfax and Loudoun counties call back the local number first when comparing quotes.

  • Real estate agents

    The constant churn of people moving in and out of the DC area means buyers want an agent whose number places them in NoVA.

Not exactly. 703 covers the Virginia side of the DC metro, including Arlington, Alexandria, and Fairfax. The District itself uses 202 and the Maryland suburbs use 301 and 240.

They cover the same territory. 571 was added in 2000 as an overlay of 703, so both serve northern Virginia. 703 is the original code.
