How to Call India from the US
There are simple, free and low-cost ways to call India from the US — you just need to dial the correct area code and choose the right tool. For free calls, use apps like WhatsApp, FaceTime or Google Duo – all you need is Wi-Fi. For cheap calls to landlines or mobiles, try services like Google Voice, Rebtel or international add-ons from your mobile provider. Let’s take a look at all the options available.
1. Dialing India from the US: The Basics
To make a direct call to India from a US number, enter the number in this format:
011 (US exit code) + 91 (India’s country code) + area code + local number
For example, to call a landline in Delhi (area code 11), it would look like this:
011-91-11-XXXXXXX
For mobile numbers, you skip the area code and just enter the 10-digit number after the country code:
011-91-XXXXXXXXXX
2. How to Call India from the US Free
Want to skip the fees entirely? These free options are great as long as both you and the recipient have internet access:
- WhatsApp – Voice and video calls over Wi-Fi or mobile data
- FaceTime Audio – For iOS users only
- Google Duo / Meet – Works across Android and iPhone
- Facebook Messenger – Audio and video options
These platforms let you stay connected at zero cost — just make sure both parties have a strong internet connection.
3. Cheap Phone Calls to India
If you’re calling a mobile or landline number (where the person may not have an app), these options offer low-cost rates:
- Google Voice – About $0.01 per minute to India; great call quality
- Rebtel – Local access numbers with unlimited India calling plans
- Skype – Affordable pay-as-you-go and subscription options
- Mobile providers – Some US carriers offer international add-ons (e.g., T-Mobile’s Stateside International Talk plan)
These are great if you're calling regularly or want better reliability than app-based calls.
4. Tips for clearer calls
- Use Wi-Fi or strong mobile data for app-based calling
- Confirm the time zone – India is typically 9.5 to 10.5 hours ahead of US time zones
- If using a calling card or app, make sure your balance is topped up and access numbers are current
Summary: Free and low-cost calls to India are easy
Whether you're catching up with family, handling business, or just saying hello – you’ve got flexible ways to make the connection. Free apps are ideal for everyday chats, and low-cost calling services are perfect for landlines or mobiles. Either way, calling India from the US is easier than ever.
