What Are N11 Codes?

N11 codes are short, 3-digit numbers used to connect to public services.
You’ve probably seen some of them before — like 911 for emergencies or 411 for directory help.

Who manages N11 codes?

In the U.S., the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) assigns and oversees N11 codes. Some are assigned nationally, while others may be used locally until a national assignment is made.
