Ivory Coast: Mobile Coverage & Carriers
ESIMBYCOUNTRY at checkout · See all codes →Three major mobile network operators serve Ivory Coast: Orange, MTN, and Moov. All three have commercially launched 3G and 4G/LTE services. 5G has been commercially launched in the country, though deployment details remain limited. Some local carriers issue eSIMs, though the availability and scope of this service appear inconsistent across operators.
Roaming users connecting to these networks will likely encounter LTE bands B3 (1800 MHz) and B8 (900 MHz), which are common throughout the region. For 5G connections, band n78 (3.5 GHz) is the expected frequency. Given the low confidence in comprehensive network data for Ivory Coast, travelers should verify current coverage and eSIM options directly with their chosen operator or roaming provider before arrival.
