Schedule calls during overlapping daylight hours when both parties are likely to be alert and available.
Confirm the recipient's availability via text or messaging app before calling across time zones.
Keep calls to reasonable lengths during off-peak hours to be considerate of the other party's sleep schedule.

Business etiquette

Request a meeting time in advance when calling US business contacts. Respect typical US business hours (9 AM–5 PM local time).
Always identify yourself at the start of the call, especially if the recipient may not recognize your Laos number.
Be concise and prepared. International calls are best when both parties have an agenda.
Follow up important conversations with email or messaging to confirm details discussed.
Be mindful of the caller's timezone; avoid calling very early morning or late evening unless pre-agreed.
