Calling Indonesia from Malaysia: what to know

Indonesia answers on the country code +62, with the capital in Jakarta and most business concentrated around Jakarta, Surabaya and Bandung. The working language for business is Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia), and local offices generally keep hours of 8:00 to 17:00.

From Malaysia the outbound access code is 00, so a manual dial reads 00 then +62 then the local number. StartACall removes that step: the call goes through your browser, so there is nothing to install and no SIM card to swap when you travel between Malaysia and Indonesia.

Most mobiles in Indonesia sit on operators such as Telkomsel, Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison, XL Axiata. Indonesia spans three time zones, Jakarta is UTC+7 but Bali is UTC+8 and Papua is UTC+9. Scheduling 'Indonesian time' is ambiguous without specifying the zone.

Indonesia runs on UTC plus 7, and it does not observe daylight saving, so the time difference stays constant through the year.
