07 is the area code for Queensland, including Brisbane, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast, Townsville and Cairns.
How 07 numbers are arranged
Queensland landline numbers have eight digits after the code and are written (07) 1234 5678. Numbers starting 07 3 are in Brisbane, 07 55 is the Gold Coast, 07 54 is the Sunshine Coast, 07 47 is Townsville and 07 40 is Cairns and the far north.
Because the whole state shares one code, the digits that follow carry the geographic clue.
Calls from 07
After floods and cyclones, calls from fake repairers, insurance assessors and charities increase. A genuine tradesperson will give you a licence number you can check with the state regulator, and will not ask for full payment up front. For any call you did not expect, look up the exact number before you act on it.
Time zone
Queensland uses Australian Eastern Standard Time, UTC+10, all year and does not observe daylight saving. In summer, Sydney and Melbourne are an hour ahead, so a call from a southern business may arrive an hour later in Queensland than you expect.
Does the area code show where the caller is?
Not reliably. Scammers and call centers use spoofing to display a local area code because people are more likely to answer. People also keep their number when they move, so a 07 number can belong to someone anywhere.
That is why the full number matters more than the code. If someone has already reported it, you will see it below.
