2G and 3G network sunset tracker

Announced 2G and 3G switch-off dates by country and operator, each with its source and the date we last verified it.

“live / none” means there is no date in the source we read. It does not mean the network will never close.

How this works and its limits

Dates come from operator announcements and regulator notices, entered by hand with a link and the date we verified them. Switch-offs that are reported but unconfirmed are labeled as reported. “live / none” means there is no date in the source we read, not that the network will never close; an announced phase-out without a published date says “announced; date not published”.

Switch-off plans change. Confirm with the operator before you rely on a date for a deployment.

Data sources and licences

Operator names, brands and codes shown here are public reference data compiled from national regulators and other public sources. Their appearance does not indicate any partnership, endorsement, agreement or connectivity between unicomam.com and the named operators. All trademarks belong to their owners. Data is provided “as is” with no warranty; verify against the official source before relying on it for routing, billing or compliance decisions.

Regulatory information is for reference only and is not legal advice; check the regulator link and the “last verified” date.

Brand, status, network-list and shutdown fields include information adapted from the Wikipedia articles “Mobile country code” (opens in a new tab), “Mobile network codes in ITU region …”, “List of LTE networks” (opens in a new tab), “List of 5G NR networks” (opens in a new tab), “List of UMTS networks” (opens in a new tab), “2G” (opens in a new tab), “3G” (opens in a new tab) and “List of 2G/3G network shutdowns”, by Wikipedia contributors (revisions as of 2026-10-20, linked by revision id), licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0 (opens in a new tab). Changes made: extracted, reformatted and merged with regulator data. The derived dataset is available under CC BY-SA 4.0.

Data: MCC-MNC.dev (opens in a new tab) — CC BY-SA 4.0 (opens in a new tab). Filtered and merged by unicomam.com.

Each switch-off date names its source, an operator announcement or a regulator notice, with its date, a link and the date we last verified it. Dates change; confirm with the operator. Operators listed are reference data only (see AT-00).

Why 2G and 3G switch-offs matter for IoT

Operators are switching off 2G and 3G networks to reuse the spectrum for 4G and 5G. Devices that can only use the older technologies lose service when the last network they support in a country closes.

The risk is highest for long-lived devices such as trackers, alarms, meters and payment terminals, and for devices that rely on 2G or 3G for voice or SMS. A switch-off in one country can come years before another.

Before choosing a module for a deployment across countries, check which technologies will still be available for the device’s expected life, and plan for LTE-M, NB-IoT or 4G where older networks are closing.

Frequently asked questions

Why do some operators show no date?

Not every operator has announced a switch-off. We show a date only when it comes from the operator or the regulator.

What does “reported” mean?

A switch-off has been reported publicly but not confirmed by the operator or the regulator. Treat it as a signal to check, not as a fact.

My devices need SMS. What should I check?

Whether SMS still works on the technology your module will use once older networks close. Our team confirms what applies to your deployment in the quote.
