Overview
Dominica's mobile subscriptions stood at 64.39 in 2025, a decline of +20.80 from 2022. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 64.39 by 2025. Dominica ranked 187th globally.
Dominica’s mobile‑subscription density has risen from zero in 1960 to 64.39 per 100 inhabitants in 2025, placing the island at rank 187 worldwide. The market experienced its all‑time high of 158.13 in 2012, after which subscriptions fell back to zero in 1995 before the long‑term expansion began. Over the 52‑year coverage period the country’s penetration remains well below that of peer nations such as Lao PDR (64.65) and Jordan (64.75), which hover around the same 2025 level. The steep climb since the mid‑1990s reflects broader Caribbean trends of network rollout and falling handset costs, yet the 2025 figure still lags behind the regional average. Continued investment in 4G/5G infrastructure and competitive pricing could sustain the upward trajectory, while any slowdown in foreign direct investment or regulatory constraints might dampen future growth.
