Hi all,

Does anyone have experience of deploying Lync enterprise voice in Saudi Arabia?

I understand that Saudi has some restrictions/regualtions regarding VoIP communication.

We have a leased line between our Saudi and Dubai office - we want to know if its legal for a user in Saudi to have a Lync call with a user in Dubai routing over this leased line.

We arent planning any TEHO - we purely want to use enterprise voice and Lync calls.

I have found no clear information regarding this either online or speaking to service providers so any guidance you can give would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Hi UC_Bailey,

I found this document on the Saudi telecoms regulators website as well that states VoIP is permitted for private usage.
