Welcome to our interactive map showcasing countries that have introduced mobile portability. Here’s how it works:
Why does the launch year matter?
The longevity of mobile number portability (MNP) in a country correlates with the number of mobile operators that adopt it. Consider Spain, which launched MNP in 2000, in contrast to Morocco which only introduced it in 2018. Spanish mobile operators had nearly two decades to assimilate and integrate MNP, likely resulting in a higher adoption rate compared to Morocco.
