If you need to call China the first thing you must to is dial the IDD phone system in the US you dial '011' for example. Then you must dial China's country code 86, the city code (without the zero) and finally the local number of the person you are trying to reach. Here is a simple example. Let's try calling ASM Overseas' Beijing office (local number 5166-1575). The number you must dial to call from USA is : 011-86-10-1575. When placing a call by yourself remember not to pause too long when you dial.


If you like to be on the safe side you can always have an operator assisting your call. However, you should bear in mind that this will cost extra.


When making a long distance call from home you should dial the city code with the zero first and then the local number. For example if you want to call ASM Overseas' Beijing office ( local number 5166-1575) from Tianjin, which is another city in China, you would dial 010-5166-1575.


Three big cities in China are adopting 8-digit phone number system and joining other world metropolitans. Here are some tips on how to update the old phone numbers.

Shanghai:

if the first digit of the old number is ''2'' through ''5'', dial a ''6'' first

if the first digit of the old number is ''6'' through ''9'', dial a ''5'' first

Beijing:

Dial a ''6'' first and then place the old 7-digit number. Mobile phone numbers are already 8-digit numbers so there is no change there.

Guangzhou (Canton):

if the first digit of the old number is ''2'' through ''7'', dial a ''8'' first

if the first digit of the old number is ''8'', you need to replace it with ''81'' and then place the remaining 6 digits.

You can find further information in any Search Engine.

Last tip on making cheap calls to China is to check the time difference beforehand because nobody would appreciate calling them during the small hours.
