Some of the existing mobile networks in Bulgaria will be switched off in 2025. The Chairman of the Communications Regulation Commission, Ivan Dimitrov, explained that the frequency resource will be reallocated, creating opportunities for better implementation of 4G and 5G networks.

''The GSM technology has been used in Bulgaria since 1995, covering everything from 2G to 5G. Our country is a leader in the Balkans in terms of the frequency resource provided over the years and can boast of reliable and high-quality networks", said Ivan Dimitrov.

Tests for the introduction of 6G mobile networks in Bulgaria have already begun.
