Digicel Naoero and Telikom Nauru, trading as Neotel, provide the country's main commercial telecommunications services. Mobile ownership reached 91.8% of the population in 2020, while mobile-broadband subscriptions reached 33.7 per 100 people in 2023. In 2022, 2G and 3G coverage reached about 98% of the population and LTE coverage about 90%. Fixed telephone infrastructure is largely unreliable, and fixed broadband mainly serves government and business users. Nauru has relied heavily on satellite connectivity, although the EMCS submarine cable was completed and handed to Cenpac Corporation on 15 May 2026. Its live end-user and last-mile performance is not confirmed by the available evidence.
