How to Call Austria from Australia: 3 Ways
Most people make calls to Austria in one of 3 ways.
- Calling card. You dial a local access number in Australia, so the card works from any landline or mobile phone. It needs no internet connection and no new SIM card. International rates to Austria start at 12.4c a minute.
- Your calling plan. Many calling plans charge a rate per minute for international dialling, and some block it. Check the rate to Austria before you call.
- Internet calling apps (VoIP). Calls are free when both people have the same app and a data plan or Wi-Fi. Call quality depends on the internet connection at both ends.
A calling card suits calls to landlines and to people with a weak internet connection.
Why a Call to Austria Does Not Work
- Keeping the 0 after 43, e.g. 0011 43 0664 123 4567 instead of 0011 43 664 123 4567.
- Taking a Salzburg number for a mobile. 0662 is the Salzburg landline code, even though it sits among the 06XX mobile codes.
- Thinking a number is the wrong length. Austrian numbers vary: a Vienna number has 7 digits after the 1, many country towns have 5 digits after a 4-digit code, and company numbers can carry extra extension digits.
- Assuming a 0800 freephone number will work from Australia. Reachability is only required from the EEA and Switzerland; ask for a normal landline or mobile number.
- Forgetting daylight saving. Austria is UTC+2 from the last Sunday of March to the last Sunday of October and UTC+1 the rest of the year.
- Your mobile plan may block international calls, or need extra credit for them. A phone card avoids this, because you dial an Australian access number first.
- On a phone card, the overseas number goes in after the access number and PIN, and ends with #.
