Virtual phone numbers are not associated with any specific landline number. They can be forwarded internationally to any destination the business has chosen. That destination can be a landline, mobile phone, VoIP, etc. This means that you can run your business from anywhere in the world and customers in China can call your virtual phone number without dialing confusing foreign dialing codes.

When somebody in China calls a virtual number, the phone call will be forwarded automatically to the destination the business has chosen. This makes your business much more accessible, and cost-conscious customers in China will be more likely to contact your business. It’s beneficial for both businesses and the individuals contacting them.
