Frequently asked questions:

A foreign phone number and a phone number in your home country to which we can forward your callers.

This varies from country to country. Some countries require a local business address, others do not.

You can choose a local international number, a national international number or a toll-free international number, depending on what is included in the country's legal numbering plan.

We pay foreign operators a so-called interconnection and/or transit charge. This is the cost of transporting traffic from the foreign country to the local country. Expect to pay 5-15 cents per minute and any local surcharges for your international number.

Yes, you can. We can transfer to your current number from the switchboard or provide new phones at your current location or abroad.

The caller will not. This is why many companies have a customer service centre in another country. Or do not open their own physical offices in all countries.

We can play a beep or a message that says "United States" so you know it is a company calling from that country.
