Your best option is to use a free video or voice calling app that you can use on your phone or computer, such as Skype, WhatsApp, or FaceTime. While many of these apps have a history of being banned on and off over the years in Saudi Arabia, users can get around the ban by using a VPN (virtual private network). You’ll need to confirm with the person you’re communicating with that they have the app and are able to use it.

WhatsApp’s calling function has been intermittently banned in Saudi Arabia, but you may be able to use other features of the app (such as text chat). You can also frequently get around internet calling bans by installing a VPN (virtual private network), which conceals your geographic location.

Just enter your exit country code (234) then add 966, then enter the person's phone number. The steps are exact same, but with your own country code.
