What is roaming service?

Roaming service allows a customer outside of their home country to get access to the mobile network for the voice call, SMS and data with their own mobile number. As the customer can travel to any foreign country, international roaming service will help them use the mobile service without any hassle.

Roaming service allows a customer to travel across various countries and access to the mobile network without changing their SIM card and number. It is suited for the people who travel often abroad for business, trade, tourism, and several other works.

  • The international roaming service was first started with the GSM mobile service and now it is available in 3G, 4G mobile networks as well.

Nepal Telecom started the International roaming service back in 2001. Till now, they have partnered with 192 operators in 86 countries. For instance, if you take your Nepal Telecom SIM card (with international roaming service) in those countries, you will be able to use the mobile service.
