MTNL is providing International Roaming on its GSM cellular Mobile services in more than 170 countries world-wide covering all the major countries of the World.

International Roaming is being provided by MTNL using two methods

MTNL is providing International Roaming directly in 143 countries in association with its Roaming partner in these countries. Dolphin customers can use the International roaming facility in these countries using normal SIM card provided by MTNL after activation of ISD & international roaming facility in their SIM.

2.

 

Using Dual IMSI SIM card:

MTNL is offering International Roaming facility in about 106 countries using dual IMSI SIM cards. For using International roaming in these countries, Dolphin customer needs to get Dual IMSI SIM in place of normal SIM already available with them and get activated ISD & International roaming on the Dual IMSI SIM card.

Customers are advised to call on 1503 for more information. The customer will have to get in touch with a nearby CSC and pay a security deposit for activation of international roaming facility.

The applicable charges are variable and dependent on the foreign operators. For an updated detailed tariff of operators in various countries, we request you to contact our call center on 1503 (or +919869012345)

Usage Charging

Voice/SMS

 

All voice calls viz. incoming and outgoing (including calls to MTNL Customer Care) are chargeable while you are overseas. The call charges are completely operator dependent and are in general charged for a 60 second pulse. The SMS is charged for 160 characters per outgoing SMS (For example, in case of an SMS of 170 characters, it will be treated as 2 SMSs).

GPRS/Data

 

The charges for GPRS/Data usages are calculated in terms of the Volume of data sent or received. As with the Voice / SMS, charges here are variable and completely dependent on foreign operators. Also note that your local plans for GPRS/

Blackberry are not valid overseas and all data usages are charges at the visited operator rates.

Blackberry Usage

 

When roaming abroad, receiving and sending mails adds to the data usage and is charged accordingly.
