How can I get 800 number in Nepal?

A friend of mine is bugging me to find out how he can setup a phone line in nepal to be accessible as 800 (toll free). I did some research, not much to be found. He would really appreciate if you know how it can be done and let me know.



Thanks



Answers:

get a good VoIP provider, and then you can get virtual number so only 3.99 a month.8000 anything you want. He%26#39;ll need to have the incumbant operator (Nepal Telephone; or whatever their technical name is) establish a toll free number there. There are likely restrictions about using it as a calling card platform, from hotels, from payphones, from cell phones, etc.



If you have operations in North America or Europe, probably the best thing to do is to ask your local operator there to see if they can get a Nepalese TF number provisioned for you.



Expect significant costs to the end user, a fair # of restrictions, and likely slow provisioning if it can be done at all. I%26#39;m not sure Nepal is able to do much with TF numbers (or wishes to).



Your local operator can go to one of the big long-haul international guys (like Teleglobe) who has a connection with Nepal Telephone %26 Telegraph and see if international toll free is available.



Failing all this, get Vonage and set it up on broadband in Nepal with a north american number... :)
