The global roaming tariff market size is expected to reach USD 88.9 billion by 2027, expanding at a CAGR of 4.5% from 2020 to 2027, according to a study conducted by Grand View Research, Inc. The increasing number of internet users is anticipated to positively influence the market growth. An increase in the subscription of LTE owing to broader network coverage is also anticipated to drive the growth. However, the availability of 3G- and 4G-enabled smartphones that provide high efficiency while roaming are bolstering the market growth. 4G provides low latency and enables users to access data and voice services when traveling abroad owing to the roaming agreements between different operators. This factor is also expected to contribute to the market expansion over the forecast period.
Moreover, the increase in number of internet users in developing countries along with the rising adoption of smartphones is unfolding opportunities for market growth. For instance, the number of internet users in developing countries accounted for 2,868 million in 2018. Also, according to GSMA, smartphones are expected to emerge as the leading and most popular mobile devices used by individuals across all regions by 2020, which is expected to boost the adoption of smartphones to a total of 80% by 2025.

Additionally, the rise in international tourism activities is also one of the factors expected to drive the market growth. The Australian Government revealed that 8.6 million international tourists visited Australia in June 2017. In addition, the Australian government updated its Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with China, India, and Australia in 2016, 2014, and 2017 respectively for encouraging tourism activities.
The launch of 5G services in 2020 is anticipated to provide growth opportunities owing to better coverage and enhanced network capacity, thus offering customers high-quality roaming services. However, government regulations are expected to reduce the tariff margins of network providers, thereby restraining the market growth.
Key suggestions from the report:
- The international roaming type segment accounted for a market share of over 70% in 2019. Even though the segment is expected to witness highest growth over the forecast period the ongoing spread of coronavirus since last few months negatively impacted the growth with reduced international tourism

- Asia Pacific is expected to witness substantial growth owing to the rising disposable income and increase in the adoption of smartphones coupled with significant number of internet users in the region
- The market is highly consolidated and characterized by high competition with the presence of major global players who focus on introducing different roaming tariff plans to enhance their market presence
- The companies are also carrying out mergers and acquisitions in an attempt to capture major market share. For instance, in March 2019, America Movil announced the acquisition of Nextel Telecommunications Ltd. Through this acquisition, the company expects to strengthen its position in Brazil market and expand its spectrum portfolio, coverage and quality, and subscriber base
