A Hong Kong number without an office in Hong Kong
A Hong Kong virtual number is a real +852 number with no line or SIM in Hong Kong. Calls reach your team over the internet, so a client in Central or Kowloon makes a local call.
Hong Kong has no area codes. Every number has 8 digits, and landlines start with 2 or 3, so a number looks like 2123 4567 locally and +852 2123 4567 from abroad.
What is a Hong Kong virtual phone number?
A virtual number is a real Hong Kong number issued by a licensed carrier. Calls travel over the internet (VoIP, voice over internet protocol) to the device you choose. English and Chinese are both official languages, so your team can usually take calls in English.

FAQ
Virtual Phone Numbers
Answers to the questions UK businesses ask us most about Virtual Phone numbers.
What is a virtual phone number?
A virtual phone number is a real number that isn't tied to a physical line or SIM. Calls run over the internet, callers see a normal local number, and you answer on your mobile, computer or desk phone.
Can I keep my existing phone?
Yes. You forward your virtual number to your current mobile or landline. There's no need to change your provider or handset unless you want to.
How quickly can I get a virtual phone number?
Most people pick a number and finish sign-up in under three minutes, with forwarding or the app set up in the same session. You're often taking calls the same day.
What does it cost?
It depends on the number type, such as geographic or non-geographic, and your usage. We show the price clearly before you sign up, with no hidden fees and no long lock-in.
Can I use it with 3CX or another phone system?
Yes. Intouch virtual numbers work with 3CX and other VoIP or PBX systems, and we'll help you connect your number to your current setup.
Can I have more than one user or extension?
Yes. You add as many users or extensions as you need. Each can have its own settings, or you point one number at a ring group or queue.
