Establish a Local Presence in Japan

Get Local Roots in Japan

Your telephone number is an important backbone of your local identity just like a physical address. By activating a Japanese number, it’s easier to get rooted into the local cities where you choose your number. Whether it be Tokyo, Osaka, Hiroshima, or Yokohama, you can show your regional customers and prospects that you are reachable.

Enhance your Customer Relationships in Japan

Do you have customers in Japan? Or do you plan to get them? Use a dedicated business phone number in notable cities like Tokyo or Yokohama to improve your interaction with your local customers. With a local number, your customers will feel more comfortable calling you and taking your calls. It’s one more way to enhance your customer relationship.

Set the Hours that You’re Reachable

We know you might be working from a different time zone. That’s why you can set the days and times that you allow your correspondents to reach you. Easily set your hours according to the time zone that you’re in or the time zone you are making calls to.

Impress your Customers with a Well-Established Company Greeting

Get your calls started off on the right foot. Show your professionalism to your callers using an official greeting. With a voice menu, let them direct themselves to the person or service they need, with pleasant music during the transfer period. Incoming calls will automatically be assigned to team members according to the caller’s selected preferences.

Maximize the Results of your Local Marketing Campaigns

If you are doing local advertising in Japan, you can add your virtual number to your publicities to effectively measure the ROI of your campaigns. Call statistics available for each number allow you to track how your callers heard about you and identify your best performing campaigns.

Increase your Pick-Up Rate with a Local Japanese Number

People are much more likely to answer calls from local phone numbers. When you offer your sales team local Japanese landline or mobile numbers, they will be able to get a hold of more people faster and increase sales. By allowing them to switch from one number to another, they can reach people with a 08145 number in Yokohama or a 0813 number in Tokyo, for example.

To call a Japanese phone number from an international number, you must start by dialing the +81 country code. This is followed by a 10-digit number including the area code. Phone numbers are typically written as +81 xxxxx xxxxx.

How do I know where a Japanese phone number is coming from?

Japanese phone numbers are preceded by the area code. Sparsely populated regions have longer area codes as compared to densely populated regions. Codes also ascend from north to south. For example, Sappora has an area code 11 while calls originating from Tokyo begin with the area code 3. Thus, looking at the first few digits of a phone number can give you an idea of where the call is originating from.

What international calling code is used in Japan?

Japan uses a +81 country calling code.
