Swaziland

Basics
Swaziland, officially the Kingdom of Eswatini; sometimes called kaNgwane or Eswatini, is a sovereign state in Southern Africa, neighboured by Mozambique and South Africa. It's a landlocked country of 17,000 km2 and 1.2 million inhabitants.

Swaziland is one of the last countries in the world to abolish an almost complete monopoly in all sectors of its telecommunications market. Until 2011 the state-owned posts and telecommunications operator (SPTC) also acted as the industry regulator and had a stake in the country’s sole mobile network, in an uneasy partnership with South Africa’s MTN. So up to now only one network provider is operating: A new independent regulatory authority was established in 2013 and has since embarked on radical changes to the telecom sector. SPTC temporarily entered the mobile market independently, but was challenged about this by MTN in the courts and had to close down again. Now Swaziland is about to release a 2nd license and selection process is underway in 2017.

Note that very few operators actually offer international roaming in Swaziland. Not even all South African providers, but only MTN for a surcharge. As Swaziland is landlocked, the country depends on neighbouring countries for international fibre bandwidth. This means that access pricing were high for many years, though prices have fallen more recently in line with greater bandwidth availability resulting from several new submarine fibre-optic cable systems, that have reached the region in recent years.

MTN Swaziland
Up to 2017 MTN Swaziland is the only provider in the country. It has a quite good coverage up to 4G/LTE at rather high prices. That's why many local people complain about rates similar or even higher than in South Africa.

2G up to EDGE on 900 MHz, 3G started in 2011 on 2100 MHz and 4G/LTE was added in 2014 on 1800 MHz (band #).
