Calling Indonesia: 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.

Outbound calls on StartACall need no phone number and no app. You place them from the browser, and you only add a US or Canada number when you also want to receive inbound calls.

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.
