The 855 area code is a toll-free number used in North America, which means it is not tied to a specific location. It is one of the seven toll-free area codes designed for North America, including 800, 833, 844, 866, 877, and 888. When someone calls an 855 number, the caller does not have to pay for the call, and the number owner bears the incurred charges. The 855 area code is accessible to callers in all 20 countries included in the North American Numbering Plan (NANP), including the United States, Canada, The Bahamas, and the Dominican Republic. Therefore, a toll-free number with the prefix 855 area code is not dedicated to a particular city or state, and it can serve any place in these countries.
