LMT: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

LMT is a Latvian mobile operator that sells mobile broadband, 5G home internet and business connectivity. The company builds and runs its own network, including 5G fixed-wireless and fibre backhaul infrastructure. Its services are delivered as network subscriptions for private and business customers in Latvia.

Telia, the Swedish operator, holds 49 per cent directly and an effective 60.3 per cent through its stake in Tet. The Latvian state holds 28 per cent directly and controls Tet, which gives it decisive influence in practice. In 2025 the government decided to buy out Telia's stakes, but no decision had been reported by July 2026, so ownership remains in flux. The company's website does not state where customer data is hosted, so hosting locations should be requested from LMT directly.

Why digital sovereignty matters with LMT

LMT is headquartered in LV and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so LMT scores best on data residency.

LMT is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs LMT together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
