- International Phone Call Forwarding
International phone call forwarding involves issuing local phone numbers in countries around the
world and then forwarding those calls to another location.
Why go to the trouble of obtaining international phone numbers when you already have a toll free number? Toll free
numbers are not necessarily international numbers.
Callers from outside your country may not be able to connect, and they might be put off by
different dialing conventions.
If you serve customers in countries outside your own, the answer is international phone call forwarding.
For example, if your business is located in the United States and you want your customers in Paris, France to be
able to reach your office, an international phone call forwarding plan can easily accomplish this.

- First, you would need to get a phone number local to Paris and then use international phone call forwarding to forward
the calls to your U.S. office.
Not yet serving customers in other countries but considering it? Many businesses use international phone call forwarding
as an integral part of their new market entry plans.
Instead of establishing branch offices in new markets, they order local phone numbers and use international phone
call forwarding to route the calls to their established call centers.
This is an inexpensive alternative to costly branch offices. In addition, international phone call forwarding serves
the same goal. For example, as your U.S. business enters a new market, such as Brazil, you want your Brazilian
callers to feel comfortable calling you; you want them to feel as if your office is nearby - not in a whole different
hemisphere. While you could rent local office space, staff the office, and order a local phone number, doing so
is costly and could take a very long time.
With international phone call forwarding, you order the Brazilian phone number and forward the calls
to your U.S. office. You can then advertize your Brazil phone number on your Web site. Callers will feel comfortable
dialing a local number and you will have saved the expense of setting up a physical office.

- In order to get the most out of your international
phone call forwarding plan, you'll want to take advantage of several key features such as setting up local ring
tones and time of day routing. Choosing a local ring tone ensures that the tones callers hear are the same ones
they hear when calling any other local phone number.
Time of day routing is a crucial feature when callers reside in different time zones. For example, you can set
up calls made during your callers' normal business hours to be answered by a live customer service representative.
With the time of day routing feature, calls made after hours can be routed to voicemail or
a different phone number even in another country. For example, between 8 am and 4 pm calls are routed to the Phillippines.
After 4 pm, the calls go to India.
