For example, to call a number in Germany, you would type +49 (the German country code) and then the rest of the German number, without the initial 0. So, if a German mobile number is 01520 555 555, you would dial +49 1520 555 555.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind that if you have an Australian number and are in Germany on your travels, you will still have to use the format above when calling a local German number from your Australian number.

class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Travellers have several ways to make international calls, depending on how often they call, where they travel, and whether they need mobile internet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>International calling with your home plan:<\/strong> Best for occasional calls if international minutes are already included.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>VoIP apps (WhatsApp, Telegram, Viber):<\/strong> These popular international calling solutions for travellers are best for those who are certain that they will have internet connection at all times.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Prepaid SIM or calling cards:<\/strong> Best for those who need local phone numbers and don\u2019t mind switching cards and registering with a foreign carrier.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Travel eSIMs with data:<\/strong> Best for frequent travellers who want reliable VoIP internet without roaming fees.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s get into more details about these International calling solutions for travellers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How-to-make-international-calls-with-your-home-plan\"><\/span>How to make international calls with your home plan<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use your regular monthly phone plan to call international phone numbers \u2014 whether you\u2019re calling another country from home or calling your home country while abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Some international call minutes may be included in your monthly plan.<\/strong> If they\u2019re not, or if you have used up your allowance, you will be charged a fixed rate per minute that is set by your mobile provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Steps to make your international call<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First, check if your plan includes international call minutes. If it doesn\u2019t, check the rates for the country you\u2019re calling, just so you\u2019re aware of the costs in advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With that done, dial the country code, then the number you\u2019re trying to call. Then, you are ready to make the call.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#fdf3ee\">Here is a practical example for calling a number in France from Australia:<br><strong>Country code: <\/strong>+33 for France.<br><strong>French number:<\/strong> 9 digits of the phone number.<br><strong>Example:<\/strong> +33 6 12 34 56 78.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">International area codes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When making international calls, <strong>you will need to add the area code of the country you are calling to before the phone number.<\/strong> Here are some examples of international area codes from around the world:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Australia: +61<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Indonesia: +62<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>New Zealand: +64<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Japan: +81<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>China: +86<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>India: +91<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mexico: +52<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pakistan: +92<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>South Africa: +27<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>United States: +1<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Spain: +34<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Germany: +49<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Greece: +30<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ireland: +353<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Poland: +48<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Calling from a landline?

Here are the steps you need to get chatting with your friends anywhere you go:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Get a VoIP app:<\/strong> Pick an app you want to use for VoIP calls. Popular options include WhatsApp, Viber, Telegram, and Messenger. Do your research, as some of them may be subject to IP telephony regulations in some countries. (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.itu.int\/itunews\/manager\/display.asp?ext=html&amp;ipage=voip&amp;issue=01&amp;lang=en&amp;year=2005\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">International Telecommunication Union<\/a>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Make sure the recipient has the same app:<\/strong> VoIP calls only work if both the caller and the recipient have the same app.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add the recipient to your contacts:<\/strong> If you haven\u2019t already, add the person you\u2019re trying to call to your list of friends or contacts in the VoIP app.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Start talking:<\/strong> With all of the above ticked off, simply open a chat with the person you\u2019re trying to call, locate the call button, and enjoy international calling over the internet.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Both you and the person you\u2019re calling need to be connected to the internet for VoIP calls to work. You can use WiFi, but it\u2019s not available on the go. You can also use <a href=\"https:\/\/esim.holafly.com\/roaming\/what-is-data-roaming\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">data roaming<\/a> with your regular card or get a prepaid SIM with mobile data. However, <strong>nothing beats travel eSIMs when it comes to price and convenience for <a href=\"https:\/\/esim.holafly.com\/internet\/international-internet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">international internet access<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How-to-call-internationally-with-an-eSIM\"><\/span>How to call internationally with an eSIM<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the type of eSIM you use, the experience can be different. An eSIM from your mobile carrier simply replaces a physical SIM card, so calls and texts work the same way as they normally do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A travel eSIM usually doesn\u2019t include calls or texts, but if you choose one with unlimited data, you can stay connected and make international calls through VoIP apps instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Holafly\u2019s eSIM with unlimited data<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Calling over the internet can use a lot of data, especially for video calls. That\u2019s why you need an unlimited data eSIM, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/esim.holafly.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Holafly<\/a>. All Holafly travel eSIM plans offer unlimited data, which means you can call as much as you like without counting minutes or constantly tracking your data usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You also get 1 GB of <a href=\"https:\/\/esim.holafly.com\/always-on\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Always On<\/a> monthly backup data with every eSIM plan. The added data allowance will be available as soon as your <a href=\"https:\/\/esim.holafly.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Holafly eSIM<\/a> is activated, and for as long as you keep it installed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All you need is an <a href=\"https:\/\/esim.holafly.com\/how-to\/esim-phones\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">eSIM-compatible phone<\/a> and an active eSIM plan. eSIMs can also work on other compatible devices, allowing you to <a href=\"https:\/\/esim.holafly.com\/internet\/phone-calls-on-ipad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">make calls on your iPad<\/a>, smartwatch, or even laptop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How-to-call-internationally-with-prepaid-calling-cards\"><\/span>How to call internationally with prepaid calling cards<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If international calls aren\u2019t included in your plan and the pay-as-you-go calling rates seem too steep, you can make calls abroad with a prepaid SIM card. Such SIM cards are typically available at most international airports, mobile providers\u2019 stores, and even convenience stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Buy your card, insert it into your mobile phone, and you\u2019ll be able to make calls within minutes. These cards typically have a fixed balance of calls, texts, and data. If you use up your balance, simply buy a new card or top up your balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How prepaid calling cards work<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Using a prepaid card for international calls works just the same as it would with your regular plan. Once you activate your card, you\u2019ll be automatically connected to a local mobile network. Then, enter the country code and the number you want to call, tap the call button, and you\u2019ll be able to call whoever you want as long as you have an outstanding balance on your card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How-much-do-international-calls-cost\"><\/span>How much do international calls cost?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>International calls can be free if you\u2019re using VoIP services or if they\u2019re included in your monthly plan. Alternatively, you can get roaming add-ons or prepaid calling cards to make international calls more affordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t do any of those, you\u2019ll be subject to pay-as-you-go rates, which is typically the most expensive option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s take a closer look at the pay-as-you-go rates for international calls by some of the biggest mobile providers worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Provider<\/th><th>International calling rates<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Optus<\/td><td>AU$0.44 to $3.95 per minute<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Telstra<\/td><td>AU$0.02 to $1.95 per minute<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>EE<\/td><td>\u00a30.14 to \u00a31.10 per minute<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>O2<\/td><td>\u00a30.22 to \u00a33.91 per minute<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Vodafone UK<\/td><td>\u00a30.23 to \u00a33.10 per minute<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Verizon<\/td><td>US$0.49 to $2.49 per minute<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>T-Mobile<\/td><td>US$1.00 to $5.00 per minute<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>AT&amp;T<\/td><td>US$1.00 to $3.00 per minute<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Rogers<\/td><td>CAD$1.10 to $3.05 per minute<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Telus<\/td><td>CAD$1.50 to $3.00 per minute<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#fdf3ee\">The Federal Communications Commission recommends that US users look up basic rates at their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fcc.gov\/consumers\/guides\/international-long-distance-calling-made-simple-tip-sheet\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">International Calling Tip Sheet<\/a> before making decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don\u2019t want to worry about charges for international calls or count the minutes left on your balance, get an <a href=\"https:\/\/esim.holafly.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">unlimited data eSIM<\/a> from Holafly instead.
