Adding international contacts to Viber is just as simple as adding any other number and requires no special actions. As long as your contact has Viber, you can use the service to call or message her for free. The service is cross-platform as well, so you do not need the same device as your contact to communicate with her. If you know your contact already has Viber installed, you can add her directly to your contact list; if not, use the invitation option to invite her to the service.
