Nova Scotia is served by 1 area code: 902. Any of them dials internationally as +1 followed by the area code and the seven-digit local number. Which specific numbers are in stock changes over time, so the Browse & Purchase tab in your account is the live source.

Do I need to live in Nova Scotia to get a number there?

No. A DialAnyone Nova Scotia number is virtual — it lives in your account rather than on a SIM, so you can hold and use it from any country. There is no residency requirement and no address to prove; the Canadian carrier asks for no documents. DialAnyone verifies your identity once, online.

Can a Nova Scotia number receive SMS verification codes?

Yes. Canadian numbers support SMS, and because the number is private to you rather than shared on a public receive-SMS site, codes from banks, marketplaces and apps generally arrive. Some services block all internet-based numbers, so delivery is not guaranteed for every sender.
