On May 28, 2026, the Information and Communication Technology Authority (ICTA) of Mauritius issued a press release announcing plans to phase out 3G services in Mauritius. Mobile network operators have begun phasing out 3G networks and confirmed that 3G mobile services will no longer be offered after 2028. ICTA calls on the public to stop importing and using devices that only support 3G, and encourages the adoption of newer technologies such as 4G LTE and 5G.
