The holders of at least a majority of the voting power of the Company's capital stock, present in person or by proxy (regardless of whether the proxy has authority to vote on any matter), shall constitute a quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes are counted for purposes determining whether there is a quorum.

**How do I vote if I am a stockholder of record?**

![](image_011.jpg)

**How do I vote if I am a beneficial owner of shares?**

If you are a "beneficial owner," also known as a "street name" holder (meaning that you hold your shares of our common stock through a broker, bank or other financial institution), your broker, bank or financial institution will ask you how you wish to have your shares voted. In addition, you will receive instructions as part of your proxy materials provided by your broker, bank or other financial institution on how to access the virtual annual meeting and participate and vote at the annual meeting (including, if your broker, bank or other financial institution elects to do so, instructions on how to vote via telephone or the Internet). You must follow those instructions in order to be able to access the virtual annual meeting and have your shares voted. You may also be able to obtain a proxy from your broker, bank or other financial institution by contacting them directly. Your broker is not permitted to vote on your behalf on the election of directors and other matters to be considered at the annual meeting (except on the ratification of the appointment of Urish Popeck & Co., LLC as auditors for 2025) unless you provide specific instructions. Accordingly, your shares will only be voted if you give instructions to your broker, bank or financial institution.

**Can I revoke my proxy or change my vote after I vote by proxy?**

If you are a stockholder of record, you can revoke your proxy before it is exercised by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• giving written notice to our Corporate Secretary;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• delivering a valid, later-dated proxy, or a later-dated vote by email (investors@iqstel.com), in a timely manner; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• voting during the live webcast of the annual meeting

If you are a beneficial owner of shares, you may submit new voting instructions by contacting your broker, bank or other holder of record and following their instructions for how to do so.

**What vote is needed to approve each proposal? How do abstentions or broker non-votes affect the voting results?**

The following table summarizes the vote threshold required for approval of each proposal and the effect on the outcome of the vote of abstentions and uninstructed shares held by brokers (referred to as broker non-votes). When a beneficial owner does not provide voting instructions to the institution that holds the shares in street name, brokers may not vote those shares in matters deemed non-routine. Only Proposal 2 is a routine matter.

Your shares will be voted in accordance with your instructions. If you are a stockholder of record and sign, date and return a proxy card but do not indicate how you wish to vote your shares, the appointed proxies named on the proxy card will vote your shares "for" each of the nominees with respect to Proposal 1 and "for" Proposal 2, and in the discretion of the appointed proxies named on the proxy card with respect to any other business properly brought before the annual meeting.

**Who will pay for the cost of this proxy solicitation?**

We will pay all expenses incurred in connection with the solicitation of proxies. In addition to solicitation by mail, our officers, directors and regular employees, who will receive no additional compensation for their services, may solicit proxies in person or by telephone, facsimile, email or the Internet. We have requested that brokers, banks and other nominees who hold stock in their names furnish this proxy material to their customers; we will reimburse these brokers, banks and nominees for their out-of-pocket and reasonable expenses.

**Could other matters be decided at the annual meeting?**

We are not aware of any other matters that will be presented and voted upon at the annual meeting. If you return your signed and completed proxy card or vote by telephone or on the Internet and other matters are properly presented at the annual meeting for consideration, the persons named in the accompanying proxy card will have the discretion to vote for you on such matters and intend to vote the proxies in accordance with their best judgment.

**PROPOSAL NO. 1<br> ELECTION OF DIRECTORS**

Our bylaws provide that our business shall be managed by or under the direction of a board of directors. The Board currently consists of five directors.

There are five nominees for election to the Board at the annual meeting. Each of the five nominees, if elected, will hold office for a term that expires at the next annual stockholders' meeting. Each director shall hold office for the term for which he or she was elected and until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation, or removal. Proxies solicited by the Board will, unless otherwise directed, be voted to elect the five nominees named below to constitute the entire Board.

The Board has nominated each of the following individuals for election as a director at the annual meeting: Leandro Iglesias, Alvaro Quintana Cardona, Italo Segnini, Raul Perez and Jose Antonio Barreto. Each nomination for director was based upon the recommendation of our board of directors and each nominee for director is a current member of the board. All nominees have consented to be named and have indicated their intent to serve if elected. In the event any of the nominees shall be unable or unwilling to serve as a director, the persons named in the proxy intend to vote "FOR" the election of any person as may be nominated by the board in substitution. The Company has no reason to believe that any of the nominees named below will be unable to serve as a director if elected.

The following table sets forth certain information, as of the date of this proxy statement, as to each nominee for the office of director:

As of the date of this proxy statement, no other matter is known which will be brought before the annual meeting. If any matter not described in this proxy statement is properly presented for a vote at the meeting, the persons named in the accompanying proxy card will vote in accordance with their best judgment and discretion

**HOUSEHOLDING**

In accordance with notices previously sent to many stockholders who hold their shares through a broker, bank or other holder of record ("street-name stockholders") and share a single address, only one annual report and proxy statement is being delivered to that address unless contrary instructions from any stockholder at that address were received. This practice, known as "householding," is intended to reduce our printing and postage costs. However, any such street-name stockholder residing at the same address who wishes to receive a separate copy of this proxy statement or the accompanying annual report on Form 10-K may request a copy by contacting the broker, bank or other holder of record. Alternatively, we will promptly deliver a separate copy of either of such documents if a street-name stockholder contacts us either by calling (954) 951-8191 or by writing to IQSTEL Inc., 300 Aragon Avenue, Suite 375, Coral Gables, FL 33134 Attn: Corporate Secretary.

Street-name stockholders who are currently receiving householded materials may revoke their consent, and street-name stockholders who are not currently receiving householded materials may request householding of our future materials, by contacting Broadridge Financial Services, Inc., either by calling toll free at (866) 540-7095 or by writing to Broadridge, Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717. If you revoke your consent, you will be removed from the "householding" program within 30 days of Broadridge's receipt of your revocation, and each stockholder at your address will receive individual copies of our future materials.
