The View from The Hague
The Hague is not the Netherlands' largest city but it may be its most internationally complex. It is simultaneously the seat of Dutch government, the home of the International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court, and a city where Indonesian, Surinamese and Turkish communities have deep roots going back generations. Add the diplomatic missions, the international civil servants, the NGO and legal community, and you get a city with a remarkably high ratio of people whose families are in different countries and whose employers are in different time zones.
Dutch carriers β KPN, T-Mobile NL, Vodafone β cover The Hague under the +31 country code, area code 70. Business plans for the international court community and NGO sector exist, but they're expensive and designed for institutional expense accounts. For the Schilderswijk and Transvaal neighborhoods, where Moroccan and Turkish families have lived since the guest-worker era, the need is entirely different: affordable, regular calls to Casablanca or Izmir, not a billed enterprise account.
The Hague's International Communities
The Hague's Indonesian community is one of the oldest and largest in the Netherlands, with roots in the Indies repatriation of the 1940s and 1950s. Families that arrived with Dutch-Indonesian identity have maintained cultural and family connections to Java, Sumatra and other islands for three generations; those bonds show up as regular calls to Jakarta and Surabaya. The Moroccan and Turkish communities in the eastern and central neighborhoods β Transvaal, Schilderswijk β maintain the same calling corridors found elsewhere in the Netherlands but with higher density here. A less-discussed corridor runs to the Dutch Antilles and Suriname. The city's diplomatic quarter adds a floating population of short-term international residents calling family on every inhabited continent.

Telecommunications in Vietnam
Vietnam has made significant strides in its telecommunications infrastructure over the past two decades. The country is served by several major mobile network operators, including Viettel, MobiFone, and Vinaphone, which together cover approximately 98% of the population. As of 2023, Vietnam boasts extensive 4G coverage, and 5G services have begun rolling out in major cities, including Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. The mobile penetration rate is estimated to be over 90%, indicating that mobile phones are the primary communication tool for most Vietnamese people.
Landline usage is declining but still present, especially in urban areas where fixed-line phones can be found in offices and homes. The countryβs telecom market is known for its competitive pricing, with affordable plans and packages encouraging widespread mobile phone usage. The government has also invested heavily in expanding broadband Internet access, further enhancing the overall telecom landscape. As a result, Vietnam is rapidly becoming a hub for digital communication in Southeast Asia.
Dialing Vietnam from Abroad
To call Vietnam from abroad, you need to follow a specific dialing format. Start by dialing the international access code for your country (for example, 011 in the United States). Next, enter Vietnamβs country code, which is +84. After that, you need to dial the area code, which can vary depending on the city you are calling. For instance, Ho Chi Minh City has the area code 28, while Hanoi's area code is 24.
When calling a mobile number, you can skip the area code and dial the mobile prefix directly, which usually starts with a 0. For example, if you are calling a mobile number that begins with 090, you would dial +84 90 followed by the remaining digits. Keep in mind that mobile numbers in Vietnam typically have 10 digits, while landline numbers can range from 8 to 11 digits depending on the area. Some international calls may require special prefixes, so itβs advisable to check with your local telephone provider for any additional instructions.
Best Times to Call Vietnam from The Hague
Vietnam operates on Indochina Time (ICT), which is UTC+7. This timezone means that when calling from the United States (for instance, PST is UTC-8), there is a 15-hour difference. Therefore, if itβs 8 AM in California, itβs already 11 PM in Vietnam. To ensure you reach your contact at a suitable time, itβs best to call during local business hours from 8 AM to 5 PM ICT.
Weekends in Vietnam, particularly Saturday and Sunday, are typically reserved for family and leisure activities. National holidays, such as Lunar New Year (Tet), which usually falls between late January and mid-February, can also affect availability, as many businesses close for extended periods. Other significant holidays to keep in mind include National Day on September 2 and the Mid-Autumn Festival. Being mindful of these timings will enhance your chances of having productive conversations.
Calling Etiquette in Vietnam
Understanding the communication culture in Vietnam is crucial for effective phone interactions. When answering a call, it is common for Vietnamese people to greet the caller with a simple "Alo" (Hello). Formal greetings are typically used in business contexts, such as stating one's name and title. In informal settings, friends and family may use more casual greetings.
Cold calling is generally acceptable, especially in business contexts, but it's important to introduce yourself clearly. During personal calls, people may prioritize face-to-face meetings or messaging apps like Zalo or WhatsApp over phone calls. In professional settings, punctuality is valued, and calls should be made during business hours, which are generally 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM from Monday to Friday. Being polite and showing respect, especially to elders or superiors, is key in both business and personal conversations.
Mobile vs Landline Numbers in Vietnam
Vietnamese mobile numbers are ten digits domestically and begin with 03, 05, 07, 08, or 09 β drop the leading zero and dial +84 followed by the nine remaining digits. The three dominant carriers, Viettel, MobiFone, and Vinaphone, each hold large chunks of the 03 and 09 ranges, but carrier-based guessing isn't necessary for a foreign caller. Landlines use city codes: Hanoi is 24, Ho Chi Minh City is 28. Both cities migrated to eight-digit local numbers in 2018, so any seven-digit Hanoi number in an old contact list needs a leading 3 inserted. For calling in, mobile is overwhelmingly where people answer, but businesses still maintain landlines as the published customer-facing number. One distinction worth noting: Zalo, a Vietnamese messaging app, carries more everyday communication than WhatsApp among locals, and a missed call often prompts a Zalo reply.
Why The Hague Callers Switch to VoIP
The range of destinations from The Hague is unusually wide even by Dutch standards: Indonesia and Jakarta are not typical on Dutch carrier add-ons, and calls to Indonesian mobiles can be expensive on standard KPN or T-Mobile plans. The city's international civil servants tend to negotiate their own arrangements or bill to employers; the Schilderswijk household calling Casablanca weekly does not have that option. Dutch mobile data is competitively priced and coverage in The Hague is solid throughout the city, including the more densely populated immigrant neighborhoods. Routing the call over that data connection means the Istanbul or Jakarta rate is transparent and consistent β and the person picking up in Izmir or Surabaya just hears a normal phone ring.
Cost-Saving Habits for Calling Vietnam
Vietnam is UTC+7 with no daylight saving, and the time rarely shifts relative to your own. From London, Vietnam is seven hours ahead; from New York, it's eleven or twelve depending on the season. Reaching someone at a Hanoi office in the morning means calling late the previous evening in Europe. The Tet holiday β Vietnamese Lunar New Year, typically falling between late January and mid-February β shuts down most of the country for a full week or more, with travel and family gatherings occupying everyone's time. Calls in the ten days before and after Tet also tend to go unanswered. Landline rates to Vietnamese fixed numbers are typically lower than mobile, and since many businesses keep Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi city numbers published for customer contact, using those for long calls can reduce cost meaningfully.
