### International Calling Rates

- However, if you're using mobile data, be mindful of any data roaming charges if you're traveling internationally.

### Other Considerations

- Ensure that you have a stable internet connection, especially if you're making video calls, as poor internet connectivity can affect call quality.
- Make sure that the contact you're calling also has WhatsApp installed and is connected to the internet to receive your call.
