Toll-free 1800 — Free for callers from any Australian phone. Best for customer service lines, support desks and enquiry lines where you want to remove any cost barrier for the caller. A worldwide address is accepted.

Local geographic — State-based numbers that carry a recognisable area code. A 2 number says Sydney and New South Wales, a 3 says Melbourne and Victoria, a 7 says Brisbane and Queensland. Best for businesses targeting specific states or wanting to appear locally established. A worldwide address is accepted.

All Australian number types accept a worldwide address, making Australia one of the simplest countries to set up. No Australian address or local entity required.

Australian numbers use a trunk prefix 0 for domestic calls, followed by the area code and subscriber number. When displaying internationally, drop the 0 and add the country code +61:

Local example (Sydney): 02 1234 5678 domestically, +61 2 1234 5678 internationally

Toll-free example: 1800 123 456 domestically

On your website, always show the international format with +61 so both Australian and international visitors can dial correctly. In advertising targeting Australian audiences, use the domestic format with the trunk prefix 0.

You choose an Australian number — toll-free 1800 or local geographic — and tell us where to forward calls. We activate the number, typically within one business day. When someone in Australia dials your number, the call routes through our network and reaches you on your Irish landline, mobile or VoIP system. The caller pays standard Australian rates (or nothing, for toll-free) and your team answers from Ireland.

You manage everything through your online account: change forwarding destinations, set opening hours, configure a phone menu or enable voicemail. No hardware, no installation, no Australian office required.

Australian telecommunications is regulated by ACMA (Australian Communications and Media Authority). Australian phone numbers are issued through licensed carriers in compliance with ACMA regulations and the Telecommunications Act 1997.

All Australian number types — toll-free 1800 and local geographic — accept a worldwide address. CallFactory works with licensed carriers to handle the regulatory requirements on your behalf.

Getting started takes minutes, not months. Choose your Australian number type, provide your address details, and we activate your number — typically within one business day.
