Calls to the Middle East

Since 13 March 2026, we've been offering free standard voice calls from Australia to destinations across the Middle East and Gulf region, to help our customers stay connected during a difficult time.

This offer has now ended. Standard international call rates apply from 14 May 2026, meaning calls to destinations such as Bahrain, Iran, Israel, Kuwait, Lebanon, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates are now charged again at their standard rates. For more information see our international calling rates.
