Using mobile data in Algeria: local tips
- Patchy signal in the south. The UK government warns that mobile coverage can be patchy or absent in remote areas, especially in the south, and that online maps may not be accurate there.
- Exam-week disruptions. Algeria has disrupted internet access during its June baccalaureate exams every year since 2018 — plan around it if you travel then.
- Metro app needs a local card. The Algiers metro’s El Metro app sells QR e-tickets, but only accepts Algerian CIB or Edahabia cards — visitors buy tickets at the station.
- Emergency numbers. Dial 14 for the fire brigade and civil protection, 1548 for police and 1055 for the Gendarmerie.
