Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.

Unfortunately it's not possible to perform ordinary calls from the Xperia Tablet Z. The phone can use the messaging (SMS and MMS) and data services from the SIM card but it's not possible to call. 

But as you where saying, it is possible to use apps like Skype to call over the Internet.
