Using the quasinormal mode frequency of extremal Reissner-Nordström black holes, we obtain the area spectrum for these types of black holes. We show that the area and entropy black hole horizon are equally spaced. Our results for the spacing of the area spectrum differ from that for Schwarzschild black holes.
