An Australia number without an office in Australia
An Australian virtual number is a real +61 number that isn't tied to a phone line or SIM in Australia. Your customers make a domestic call. Your team answers it in the UK on whatever device suits them.
Australian landline numbers have 10 digits, including the leading 0. A Sydney number looks like (02) 9123 4567 to a local caller and +61 2 9123 4567 from abroad. Each area code covers a whole region: 02 for New South Wales and the ACT, 03 for Victoria and Tasmania, 07 for Queensland, and 08 for Western Australia, South Australia and the Northern Territory.

A virtual number is a real Australian number issued by a licensed carrier. Calls to it travel over the internet (VoIP, voice over internet protocol) to the phone, laptop or app you choose. Callers in Australia dial it like any other local or interstate number.
