[[Image:Area codes VT.png|thumb|right|Vermont, and its 802 area code, in red]]
'''Area code 802''' is a telephone [[area code]] in the [[North American Numbering Plan]] (NANP) for the [[U.S. State]] of [[Vermont]]. [[AT&T]] established the numbering plan area (NPA) for the entire state with one of the original area codes in October 1947 and it remains Vermont's only area code.

Vermont is among the eleven states with only one area code and 802 has become a source of pride in the state.<ref name="picard20130731">{{cite news | url=http://www.sevendaysvt.com/vermont/how-802-went-viral-and-became-vermont-shorthand-for-cool/Content?oid=2265600 | title=How "802" Went Viral and Became Vermont Shorthand for Cool | work=Seven Days | date=July 31, 2013 | access-date=February 14, 2014 | last=Picard|first=Ken}}</ref>

Prior to October 2021, area code 802 had telephone numbers assigned for the [[central office code]] 988. In 2020, ''988'' was designated nationwide as a dialing code for the [[National Suicide Prevention Lifeline]], which created a conflict for exchanges that permit [[seven-digit dialing]]. This area code was therefore scheduled to transition to [[ten-digit dialing]] by October 24, 2021.<ref name="pl556">{{cite web|url=https://nationalnanpa.com/pdf/PL_556.pdf|date=January 8, 2021|publisher=North American Numbering Plan Administrator |title=Transition to 10-digit dialing (for 988 as 3-digit access to National Suicide Prevention Hotline)|access-date=March 9, 2021}}</ref>
