These upper limits on roaming charges do not include VAT. At the moment, the standard charges are EUR0.35/minute and EUR0.11/minute for outgoing and incoming calls, respectively.
The cost to send a text message abroad will not exceed EUR0.08 without VAT – while receiving a text message is free, ANCOM said Thursday.
The new charges are required per Regulation (EC) No. 531/2012 of the European Parliament and Council on roaming on public mobile telephone networks within the Union.
