Not necessarily. Some ISPs and majority of cell providers in Europe only give you CGN IPv4. No IPv6, no static option.

That being said, most carriers or major ISPs aren’t actually that hard up for IPv4 space.
By no means will static IPv4s be available on all plans, but merely changing AP or plan type will commonly result in the ability to purchase a static IPv4.
It’s mostly about lubricating with money to find a solution rather than an all out lack of IPv4.
