MOSCOW, 29 October (BelTA) – The Council of the Eurasian Economic Commission adopted an action plan on abolishing roaming charges in the Eurasian Economic Union at a session on 29 October, BelTA learned from Iya Malkina, a spokeswoman of the Eurasian Economic Commission.
The action plan stipulates a set of measures designed to prevent, detect, and suppress fraud and enable direct interaction of mobile carriers for handling international roaming traffic. The measures also provide for organizing direct links between mobile carriers.
The development of rules on fair use of just tariffs is part of the action plan. Among other things the rules will determine billing increments and the maximum volume of communications services that roaming users can get at fair prices.
The Eurasian Economic Commission will keep an eye on the implementation of these measures. Once they are fully realized, the Board of the Eurasian Economic Commission will pass recommendations that will encourage EAEU mobile carriers to transition to roaming tariffs as close to home tariffs as possible starting 2025.
