Dial Indonesia directly through your phone carrier using country code 62 — convenient, but international rates can add up fast.
Prepaid calling cards let you reach Indonesia at lower rates, though you'll juggle access numbers and PINs each time.
MeraTalk connects you to Indonesia over the internet with HD-clear audio, low rates, and no hardware to set up.
Dial 011, then 62, then the number, dropping the leading 0.
On a mobile you can replace the exit code with a + sign and dial +62 directly, which works from any country without knowing the local exit code.
Full dialing sequence
Start by dialing your own country's international access code. From the US or Canada this is 011; from most of Europe it's 00. This tells your network you're making an international call.
Immediately follow with Indonesia's country code — no spaces or dashes. This routes your call to Indonesia's telephone network. On smartphones, replace the exit code with a + sign.
Add the city or regional code for your destination in Indonesia. If the local number starts with a 0 (trunk prefix), drop it — the country code replaces it when dialing internationally.
Enter all remaining digits of the local number exactly as written. For mobile numbers, include every digit — no abbreviations. Press call and your carrier does the rest.
A strong, stable internet connection is the foundation of every clear call — use Wi-Fi or solid data whenever you can.
A quality headset sharpens both ends of the conversation, making your calls to Indonesia clearer and more comfortable.
Keep the time difference in mind — UTC+7 to UTC+9 — so you reach people at a reasonable hour and not in the middle of the night.
The price of calling Indonesia swings widely depending on whether you use a carrier, a calling card, or VoIP — and VoIP usually wins.
How to get started with MeraTalk
Phone numbers in Indonesia follow set ranges after the 62 country code, distinguishing mobiles, landlines, and special services.
Indonesian mobile prefixes are allocated in blocks per operator, so the prefix usually identifies the network.
+62 is Indonesia. The digits after the country code tell you what kind of number it is:
Indonesian numbers begin with a trunk prefix 0 domestically. Drop it when calling from abroad: a Jakarta number written 021 XXXX XXXX is dialled +62 21 XXXX XXXX.
Indonesia splits emergency services across several numbers rather than using one for everything:
Indonesian area codes by city, with the full number as you dial it from abroad.
Indonesian area codes are two or three digits after the leading 0, and the leading 0 is dropped from abroad. Landlines carry eight digits in the major cities and seven elsewhere.
