List of countries by number of mobile numbers in use

This list ranks the countries of the world by the number of mobile phone numbers in use.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This list does NOT provide the "number of mobile phones in use." Nobody knows that data. This is a count of phone numbers by country. In fact, often each SIM card has a separate phone number, so those with a dozen SIM cards (for each city they frequent) will have a dozen phone numbers.

In some countries, it's true that one person might have two mobile phones. Also, some mobile phone numbers may be used by machines as a modem (examples: intrusion detection systems, home automation, leak detection), or a local micro-cell.
