Area code 702 is a telephone area code in Nevada, anchored on Las Vegas. It reaches roughly 2.3 million people across places such as Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, Paradise and more. The region observes Pacific time, so a number like (702) 555-0142 is on that clock right now. 702 covers the entire Las Vegas valley and was historically Nevada's main urban code. It shares its territory with the overlay code 725, which sit on the exact same map. Because the 702 region uses more than one area code, you must dial all ten digits — area code included — even for a local call. You do not, however, need to dial a leading 1 for calls within the US and Canada. On this page you'll find a live local clock for Las Vegas, an interactive coverage map, the cities and counties 702 serves, its overlay and neighboring codes, and tips on spotting 702 spam calls.

Safety

Is a call from 702 a scam?

The 702 area around Las Vegas sees heavy tourism and seasonal traffic, and scam calls here often pose as hotels, travel bookings, timeshares or 'prize' offers. Genuine 702 calls come from local businesses and residents. Because a familiar area code can be spoofed by anyone, don't assume a 702 call is trustworthy just because it looks local.

Red flags to watch for

  • Pressure to act right now, or threats of arrest, fines, or service being cut off.
  • Requests to pay with gift cards, wire transfer, crypto, or a payment app.
  • Asking for passwords, one-time codes, your SSN, or full card/bank numbers.
  • A robocall or recording, or a number that won’t let you call back.

When unsure, hang up and call the organization back on a number you look up yourself.

  • Japan010 1 702 555-0142
  • Mexico00 1 702 555-0142
