The United States District Court for the Northern Mariana Islands is located on the island of Saipan, in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, at 15.1N 145.8E, or about 150 miles north of Guam in the northwest Pacific.

The local time in Saipan is GMT +10 hours. Saipan is on the other side of the International Date Line from the U.S. Mainland. At 8:00 am Eastern Standard Time, it is 11:00 pm the same day in Saipan. At 5:00 pm Eastern Standard Time, it is 8:00 am the next day in Saipan. This is why sometimes when you call by telephone, there isn't any answer.  Due to the time difference, it may be best to contact us by email.

Saipan is served by the United States Postal Service (USPS), and is in U.S. domestic postal Rate Zone 8.

To call Saipan, use Area Code 670. Saipan is in the same telephone country code as the rest of the United States (Country Code 1), so no international dialing codes are needed when calling from the U.S. or Canada.
