Zong China Calling Bundles in Pakistan: 75 to 600 Minutes From Rs 325 on *4083#
Zong China bundles on *4083# run from 75 minutes for Rs 325 to 600 for Rs 2,000 plus tax. A second page lists an unlimited offer at Rs 250 a week. Compare both.
To call China from a Zong SIM, dial *4083# and choose a bundle from 75 minutes for Rs 325 plus tax up to 600 minutes for Rs 2,000 plus tax. Zong's website lists a second, cheaper "unlimited" China offer at Rs 250 a week and Rs 750 a month with a fair usage limit, so read both before you buy.
Students in Beijing and Shanghai, traders in Guangzhou and engineers on CPEC sites all call Pakistan, and families call back. We read Zong's China IDD bundles page and its International Direct Dialing page on 21 October 2026. Prices are plus tax.
The China IDD bundles run from 75 to 600 minutes
Zong's shop page lists four China bundles, the same for prepaid and postpaid: 75, 150, 300 and 600 minutes. The code to subscribe and unsubscribe is *4083#. Bigger bundles cost less per minute.
| Bundle | Price (+ tax) | Minutes | Cost per minute |
|---|---|---|---|
| China Offer 75 mins | Rs 325 | 75 | Rs 4.33 |
| China Offer 150 mins | Rs 625 | 150 | Rs 4.17 |
| China Offer 300 mins | Rs 1,150 | 300 | Rs 3.83 |
| China Offer 600 mins | Rs 2,000 | 600 | Rs 3.33 |
The cost per minute is our arithmetic, price divided by minutes. Zong says the offer is valid for China landline and mobile (written as LL+M) and does not apply with international roaming. The shop page gives no validity in days.
A second Zong page lists an unlimited China offer at Rs 250 a week
The International Direct Dialing page shows "China IDD Bundles" with a weekly price of Rs 250 and a monthly price of Rs 750, both with a fair usage policy. It states the cap as 525 minutes for the weekly bundle and 2,250 minutes for the monthly one. It tells prepaid customers to dial 310 to subscribe, and a postpaid table shows the monthly Rs 750 only.
By our arithmetic, 525 minutes for Rs 250 is under Rs 0.48 a minute, and 2,250 minutes for Rs 750 is about Rs 0.33 a minute. Both are far below the Rs 3.33 of the 600 minute bundle. The two pages do not explain each other. We could not tell whether both are current, so this is a conflict between Zong's own pages. Ask Zong on 310 which one applies to your SIM and read the reply before you accept.
Pick by minutes used and check the fair usage rule
If you call China twice a week for half an hour, that is about 240 minutes a month. The Rs 1,150 bundle for 300 minutes covers it. The monthly unlimited offer, if it applies to you, would cover it for Rs 750.
The word unlimited needs care. Zong attaches a fair usage policy and names a cap, so it is not endless. For light use, say 60 minutes a month, the 75 minute bundle at Rs 325 is enough.
How to subscribe and stop
For the shop bundles, Zong lists *4083# to subscribe and unsubscribe. For the unlimited offer, the page says to dial 310. The steps below follow the shop bundles.
- Count the minutes you call China in a normal month.
- Ask Zong on 310 whether the unlimited weekly or monthly offer is open to your SIM.
- If not, dial *4083# and choose the bundle that fits.
- Read the price in the reply and keep the SMS.
- Call China with +86 before the number.
- Dial *4083# again to unsubscribe.
Planning a trip? The rules for entry are in the China visa guide for Pakistanis, and roaming bundles for the trip itself are in the Zong roaming bundles for China, Thailand and Malaysia. If a charge repeats, the Zong unsubscribe steps list the codes to stop services.
Keep the SMS and check your balance after you subscribe
After any bundle, look at your balance and the confirmation message. If the amount taken is higher than the price on this page, the difference may be tax, which Zong adds on top. Keep the message for 30 days. If you see a second charge you did not expect, call 310 and quote the date and time of the SMS. Do not subscribe to a second bundle while minutes remain, because Zong does not say they carry over.

How we verified this
What we checked, where we read it, and what we could not confirm.
Last checked 21 October 2026. Prices, minutes, the *4083# code and terms come from Zong's China IDD bundles page, and the unlimited weekly and monthly offer and its caps come from Zong's International Direct Dialing page, both at zong.com.pk and both read on 21 October 2026. Cost per minute is our own arithmetic. The two pages list different China offers and we could not confirm which is current. We did not subscribe or place a call. Zong can change or withdraw offers, so confirm the price on your phone.
