International Calls

Making International Calls from Your Home Area

For information about making international calls from your home area, including rates and other charges that may apply, contact your carrier or go to your carrier’s website.

Using iPhone Abroad

You may be able to use iPhone to make calls in other countries around the world, depending on available networks.

Enable international roaming: Contact your carrier for information about availability and fees.

Important: Voice and data roaming charges may apply. To avoid data roaming charges, turn Data Roaming off.

Turn Data Roaming off: In Settings, choose General > Network, then tap to turn Data Roaming off. Data Roaming is turned off by default.

Turning Data Roaming off helps to avoid data roaming charges when traveling outside your carrier’s network by disabling data transmission over the cellular network. You can still access the Internet if you have a Wi-Fi connection. If Wi-Fi network access isn’t available, however, you cannot:

ÂÂ Make or receive FaceTime video calls ÂÂ Send or receive email

ÂÂ Browse the Internet

ÂÂ Sync your contacts, calendars, or bookmarks with MobileMe or Exchange ÂÂ Stream YouTube videos

ÂÂ Get stock quotes ÂÂ Get map locations

ÂÂ Get weather reports

ÂÂ Purchase music or apps

Other third-party apps that use data roaming may also be disabled.

If Data Roaming is turned off, you can still make and receive phone calls, and send and receive text messages. Voice roaming charges may apply. Visual voicemail is delivered if there’s no charge; if your carrier charges for delivery of visual voicemail when roaming, turning Data Roaming off prevents the delivery of visual voicemail.

Important: If Data Roaming is turned on, you may incur charges when roaming outside your carrier’s network for the use of any of the features listed above, as well as for delivery of visual voicemail. Check with your carrier for information about roaming charges.
