French Polynesia: Mobile Coverage & Carriers
ESIMBYCOUNTRY at checkout · See all codes →French Polynesia has two mobile network operators: Vini (OPT) and Vodafone (Pacific Mobile). Both 3G and 4G/LTE services are commercially available in the territory, and 5G has also been launched. Roaming eSIMs typically connect via LTE bands B3 (1800 MHz) and B28 (700 MHz), or via the 5G n78 band at 3.5 GHz where available.
Information regarding whether local carriers issue eSIMs is currently being verified and confidence in available data is low. Travelers and residents considering eSIM options are advised to contact the carriers directly for current details on eSIM issuance and compatibility.
