How to call Vietnam from Australia

In short

To call Vietnam from Australia, dial +84, then the number without its leading zero. With Intercalling you do this in your browser, no app and no SIM, from about $0.54 a minute. The first call is free with no card, then you pay by the minute and your credit never expires.

The Vietnam country code and how to dial it

Vietnam's country code is +84. Mobile numbers start with 03, 05, 07, 08 or 09 locally, and the leading zero is dropped when you call from overseas, so a mobile becomes +84 followed by the rest. Landlines have a city code, such as 24 for Hanoi and 28 for Ho Chi Minh City, also dialled without the zero.

From a regular Australian line you would dial 0011, then 84, then the number. With Intercalling there is no exit code to remember. Type the plus sign and the full number, the same on a laptop or a phone, and we connect your browser straight to the Vietnamese network.

Vietnam reworked its mobile numbering a few years back, so older saved numbers can have an out of date prefix. If a number will not connect, it is worth confirming the current format with whoever you are calling, then re entering it as +84 with the single leading zero removed.

What it costs to call Vietnam

A call to Vietnam runs about $0.54 a minute. You pay by the minute with no monthly plan and a small $0.004 connection fee per call, and the credit you top up never expires, so you can add a little and use it whenever you need.

For the large Vietnamese Australian community across Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, that gives a simple, direct line home. You can try the first call free to check the audio before adding any credit.

Time zone and the best time to ring

Vietnam sits three to four hours behind Australian eastern time depending on daylight saving down here, since Vietnam does not observe daylight saving. Evening in Australia is still afternoon or early evening over there, which suits a relaxed call with family.

If you are calling parents or older relatives, an Australian evening usually finds them home in their early evening, before the night gets late over there. For a business call to Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City, ring later in the Australian afternoon to catch their working day.

Whoever you call needs no app and no account. They simply answer their normal mobile or landline, whether they are in Hanoi, Da Nang or Ho Chi Minh City.

Reading a Vietnamese number correctly

Vietnamese numbers are written locally with a leading 0 on both mobiles and landline area codes, and that 0 always comes off from overseas. A mobile written as 0912 345 678 becomes +84 912 345 678, and a Ho Chi Minh City landline written as 028 1234 5678 becomes +84 28 1234 5678.

Mobiles carry the area inside the prefix, so 03, 05, 07, 08 and 09 mark the line as mobile rather than tying it to a city. Landlines, by contrast, use a city code like 24 for Hanoi. Either way the rule is the same, drop the single leading zero and keep the rest exactly as written after +84.

The Vietnamese Australian community and cost vs roaming

Vietnamese is one of the most spoken community languages in Australia, with large populations in western Sydney, Melbourne's south east and Brisbane. A flat per minute rate makes regular calls home easy to budget, whether you are checking in with parents or arranging family matters.

Ringing Vietnam on a normal Australian mobile, or on roaming while travelling, can cost far more per minute and often hides the rate inside a plan. Because Intercalling runs over the internet there is no roaming, and you see the per minute price before you dial, so the cost stays predictable wherever you are.

The same applies if you travel to Vietnam yourself. Rather than buying a local SIM just to make a few calls, you can open the browser on hotel or cafe wifi and ring an Australian or Vietnamese number at the same clear rate, with no card to swap and no allowance to top up separately.
