Tips for Calling China

China uses a single time zone (UTC+8) despite its large geographic area. Mobile numbers are 11 digits starting with 1. Landline numbers include a 2-3 digit area code (010 for Beijing, 021 for Shanghai). Drop the leading 0 when dialing internationally. Business hours are 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM CST.

Connection Fee Explained

Kinvo charges a flat $0.05 connection fee per call to China. This fee is charged only when the call is answered by the recipient. You are never charged for:

  • -Calls that are not answered (no pickup)
  • -Calls that reach a busy signal
  • -Calls that fail to connect due to network issues
  • -Calls you cancel before the recipient answers

For example, a 10-minute call to a China landline costs: $0.05 + (10 x $0.02) = $0.25. A 10-minute call to a China mobile costs: $0.05 + (10 x $0.02) = $0.25.
