History & Cultural Notes

Area code 784 covers Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, entering service June 1, 1998 as part of the breakup of the old shared Caribbean area code 809. Saint Vincent and the Grenadines was, in fact, the last territory to split off from 809, completing the region's transition to individual country codes by 1998-1999 after a permissive dialing period that ran through June 1, 1999. The number 784 is said to have been chosen deliberately: on a telephone keypad, the digits spell out "SVG," the country's own abbreviation.

The numbering plan area is anchored on the capital, Kingstown, and extends to Georgetown, Barrouallie, Chateaubelair, and out into the Grenadines chain, including Bequia and Union Island. Bananas have long been the traditional export crop, while tourism, yachting, and maritime services now drive much of the economy -- the Grenadines' roughly 32 small islands, among them Mustique and Canouan, form one of the Caribbean's premier sailing and luxury tourism destinations. Offshore financial services add another layer to the country's economic base.
