Movistar Chile and travel eSIM in Chile

Quick answer

  • 26 of the 52 Chile plans we sell name Movistar Chile as a reachable network, at 3G and 4G and 5G.
  • Movistar runs 5G on n78; your phone needs at least one of them.
  • Travel plans connect by roaming, so no plan can promise one specific network.

Movistar Chile in brief

Movistar Chile is a mobile network operator in Chile, and one of the networks a travel eSIM may reach through roaming.

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.

Movistar's bands and technology

ItemMovistar
LTE (4G)Not verified
5G NRn78
5G launched2021
Network code (MCC-MNC)730-02, 730-07, 730-29, 730-30

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 Movistar 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.

Who licenses Movistar

Mobile networks in Chile are licensed, and their spectrum assigned, by the Subsecretaría de Telecomunicaciones (Subtel). 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 Movistar Chile

From the supplier record behind each package, 26 of the 52 plans we currently sell for Chile declare Movistar Chile as a network the profile can reach, at 3G and 4G 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 Movistar Chile 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.

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 Movistar Chile is weak where you are, try selecting Claro Chile or Entel manually in the network settings, and keep data roaming on for the eSIM profile.

FAQ

Will my eSIM definitely connect to Movistar Chile?+

26 of our plans name Movistar Chile 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 Movistar?+

At least one of these; 5G: n78. Your phone's band list is on the maker's spec page for your model, under "Cellular" or "Network".

Does Movistar Chile run 5G, and will my plan get it?+

Yes. Movistar has run commercial 5G since 2021, on n78. 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.
