Using a different country code

[AhmedSiddig]

Hi team,

I just wanted to know if there is an option to use a different country code within 3CX.
We have a number from a different country and we are based in Dubai, we are using that Zoom Voip but calls get interrupted after a few minutes, i think because its blocked by UAE so is it possible to use that number from 3CX and have it for calling and receiving.

Please let me know.

Thanks,

If Dubai requires that VoIP provider block SIP services (VoIP trunks) that originate outside the country, then making use of a VPN (if possible) , would be that only way to do this. Knowing that they may be breaking the law, in a particular country, may make some providers reluctant to offer such a service.

Thank you for the reply, we are trying to avoid the VPN option because its restricted here that's why.
but from what you said i guess there's no other option.

If they are looking for, can detect, and then restrict VPN, then I'm pretty sure that you won't be able to get around the restrictions in place.
It's unfortunate that some counties feel the need to be this restrictive.
