Interior

The Ministry of Interior (MOI) mobile network in Qatar operates with the Mobile Country Code (MCC) 427 and Mobile Network Code (MNC) 06. As a dedicated network operated presumably for governmental or public service reasons, this differs from the commercial mobile networks available to the general public in Qatar, such as Ooredoo (MCC 427, MNC 01) and Vodafone Qatar (MCC 427, MNC 02). This arrangement of reserved network codes reflects Qatar's strategic approach to telecommunications infrastructure, ensuring secure and reliable communication channels for key government functions. While Ooredoo and Vodafone Qatar compete fiercely for market share, offering a range of consumer and business services, the MOI network likely prioritizes security, resilience, and specialized applications relevant to its operational requirements. Its presence alongside other established networks underscores the importance of diverse telecommunications infrastructure within the broader context of Qatar’s overall development, aligning with the nation’s strategic vision within the Asia & Middle East region. The specific technologies employed and the range of services offered by the MOI network remains less publicly known than the commercial offerings, but serve a specific and important task.
