As VoIP service has gotten more fully-featured and reliable, more and more people have switched over from traditional telephone service. In countries where the government has a monopoly or strong control over national telephone service, this can pose a threat to revenue for the state. Some of these countries have placed restrictions on VoIP service and VoIP use, sometimes even going so far as to make using VoIP illegal.VoIP should work just like any other telephone service for you, regardless of which country you are calling. Once you place your call, it will be routed just like any other, no matter which country you call.
