Digital Adoption in Bolivia
80.0% internet use · 0.6651 e-government
This profile brings together internet use, financial inclusion and UN e-government indicators for Bolivia, with source years shown alongside each figure.
Internet and Connectivity
Internet use in Bolivia is reported at 80.0% for 2024. The indicator measures individuals using the internet rather than subscriptions.
Bolivia is compared only where the same indicator definition is available for the country, its region and the world. The source year is shown with each figure.
Bolivia records 98 mobile subscriptions per 100 people in 2024 in the cited series. Subscriptions count active lines rather than unique residents, so a rate above 100 is possible. Across the indicators, use the stated indicator definition so the value is not mistaken for a population share.
The fixed-broadband figure for Bolivia is kept as a subscription rate rather than a household-access percentage. The two measures use different denominators. Survey measures are shown separately from telecom counts.
| Connectivity indicator | Bolivia | Year |
|---|---|---|
| Individuals using the internet | 80.0% | 2024 |
| Mobile cellular subscriptions | 98 per 100 people | 2024 |
| Active mobile broadband subscriptions | 86.7 per 100 people | UN 2024 survey input |
| Fixed broadband subscriptions | 12.07 per 100 people | 2024 |
Digital Payments
Financial-inclusion indicators are shown separately from connectivity measures because they describe account ownership or payment use.
| Financial inclusion indicator | Bolivia | Year |
|---|---|---|
| Adults with an account | 56.9% | 2024 |
| Women with an account | 53.5% | 2024 |
| Men with an account | N/A | N/A |
| Made or received a digital payment | N/A | N/A |
The financial-inclusion figures for Bolivia come from survey indicators and are kept separate from telecom subscription measures. Account ownership and payment use measure different aspects of digital participation.
A male account-ownership value and a directly comparable digital-payment value are not displayed because they were not directly verified in the authoritative extracts used for this page. No value has been inferred from totals or from another year.
Data note: When comparing Bolivia with regional or global figures, use the year printed beside each value because collection periods can differ.
Digital Government
Data note: No missing Bolivia value is estimated on this page; an unavailable observation remains clearly identified until a comparable source is published.
| UN indicator | Bolivia |
|---|---|
| E-Government Development Index | 0.6651 |
| Global rank | 99 |
| Online Service Index | 0.5987 |
| Telecommunication Infrastructure Index | 0.7089 |
| Human Capital Index | 0.6876 |
| UN rating class | High, H3 |
Bolivia ranked 99th worldwide in the 2024 UN E-Government Survey with an EGDI score of 0.6651.
EGDI combines online services, telecommunications infrastructure and human capital; it is not an internet-use rate.
The EGDI is a digital-government measure rather than a general score for consumer technology adoption, so it should be read alongside connectivity and financial-inclusion indicators.
The digital gender gap
Gender-disaggregated indicators can reveal differences hidden by national averages. This section only calculates a gap when both sides are directly verified and comparable.
Share of male population
Not availableNo directly verified value in extract
Not shownNot calculated from incomplete data
Not shownMale value not directly verified
Not shownA directly verified pair of male and female internet-use observations was not available in the retrieved extract for this page. The page therefore leaves the gender-gap values unfilled rather than estimating them.

Sources & methodology
DigifyWorld uses the latest publicly available observation directly verified for each indicator and keeps the reference year visible instead of treating every number as current-year data.
Rounding: percentages are generally shown to one decimal place, subscription rates to up to two decimals and index scores to four decimals. Where no directly verified comparable value is available, DigifyWorld shows a dash instead of estimating a replacement.View sources used for this page
