The abolition of roaming charges in the EU is extended until 2032. This means that there are no other fees for surfing and making phone calls in other EU countries.

Originally, the abolition of roaming fees applied until June. Even after June, people in the EU would now “be able to make calls, send text messages and surf the Internet at no additional cost,” the EU Council said. However, the rules for “appropriate use” are retained. These are intended to prevent it from being permanently possible to make phone calls or surf the Internet in other EU countries without extra costs. Roaming fees are charged for using foreign mobile networks. For mobile phone calls within the EU as well as in Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway, they were initially limited in 2007 and then gradually reduced. They were then completely abolished on June 15, 2017.
