Crnogorski Telekom is one of the networks your eSIM may use in Montenegro. Here is who actually decides which network you get, and what to do with that.

Crnogorski Telekom and travel eSIM in Montenegro

Quick answer

  • 35 of the 35 Montenegro plans we sell name Crnogorski Telekom as a reachable network, at 4G and LTE and 5G.
  • Crnogorski Telekom runs LTE on B1, B3, B7, B8, B20, B32; your phone needs at least one of them.
  • Travel plans connect by roaming, so no plan can promise one specific network.

Crnogorski Telekom in brief

Crnogorski Telekom says on its 5G page that its 5G network is available to 80% of Montenegro's population, and it announced the shutdown of its 3G network from 22 January.

We are not a reseller for this operator and we have not run our own field speed tests. The band and network details below come from the sources listed at the end of the page.

Checked against the sources on 2026-10-11. Only the bands a source confirmed are listed; the network may run others too.

An eSIM can only use Crnogorski Telekom if your phone supports at least one band in this table. Before you fly, open your model's spec page on the maker's site and compare its LTE and 5G band lists.

Crnogorski Telekom's coverage map

Crnogorski Telekom publishes its own coverage map. Look up the street or district you will stay in rather than the country as a whole, because coverage in town and out of town differs a great deal. The map shows Crnogorski Telekom's own network; a roaming plan may not get every technology it shows.

Who licenses Crnogorski Telekom

Mobile networks in Montenegro are licensed, and their spectrum assigned, by the Agency for Electronic Communications and Postal Services (EKIP). The bands above are the ones it allocates. A problem with the local network's own service goes to the operator first; a problem with your eSIM plan comes to us.

The plans on our shelf that name Crnogorski Telekom

From the supplier record behind each package, 35 of the 35 plans we currently sell for Montenegro declare Crnogorski Telekom as a network the profile can reach, at 4G and LTE and 5G. The figure comes from the same catalogue that prices the plan pages, and it moves when the supplier revises the record.

A plan naming Crnogorski Telekom means the network sits in the list the profile may choose from. It does not mean your handset will stay on it. The priority order is the supplier's, and the signal where you stand decides.

A band shared across networks is one a single phone can use on all of them.

Why plans do not name a fixed network

Nearly every travel eSIM is a roaming product: the profile picks a network by an order the supplier sets, not by the buyer. If Crnogorski Telekom is weak where you are, try selecting m:tel Montenegro or One Montenegro manually in the network settings, and keep data roaming on for the eSIM profile.

FAQ

Will my eSIM definitely connect to Crnogorski Telekom?+

35 of our plans name Crnogorski Telekom as reachable, but that is not a guarantee. Travel plans run over roaming agreements, so the network depends on the supplier behind the plan, your device and where you are.

Which bands does my phone need for Crnogorski Telekom?+

At least one of these, LTE: B1, B3, B7, B8, B20, B32. Your phone's band list is on the maker's spec page for your model, under "Cellular" or "Network".

Does Crnogorski Telekom run 5G, and will my plan get it?+

Yes. Crnogorski Telekom has run commercial 5G. A travel plan only gets it when the plan permits 5G, your phone supports one of those bands, and you are inside 5G coverage. Miss any one and you fall back to 4G.

How do I see which network I am on?+

Check the carrier name at the top of the screen, or open the mobile-network settings and look at the operator list. If signal is poor, try selecting a network manually instead of automatic, but only one your plan actually supports.
