Orange Bissau is one of the networks your eSIM may use in Guinea-Bissau. Here is who actually decides which network you get, and what to do with that.

Quick answer

  • 10 of the 22 Guinea-Bissau plans we sell name Orange Bissau as a reachable network, at 4G.
  • Orange Bissau runs LTE on B3; your phone needs at least one of them.
  • Travel plans connect by roaming, so no plan can promise one specific network.

Orange Bissau in brief

In May 2021 Orange Bissau began modernising its 3G+/4G network and adding 150 antennas to extend coverage to more than 1,000 villages.

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 2026-10-12. Only the bands a source confirmed are listed; the network may run others too.

An eSIM can only use Orange Bissau 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 Orange Bissau

Mobile networks in Guinea-Bissau are licensed, and their spectrum assigned, by the Autoridade Reguladora Nacional das Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (ARN). 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 Orange Bissau

From the supplier record behind each package, 10 of the 22 plans we currently sell for Guinea-Bissau declare Orange Bissau as a network the profile can reach, at 4G. The figure comes from the same catalogue that prices the plan pages, and it moves when the supplier revises the record.

A plan naming Orange Bissau 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 Orange Bissau is weak where you are, try selecting Telecel Guinea-Bissau manually in the network settings, and keep data roaming on for the eSIM profile.

FAQ

Will my eSIM definitely connect to Orange Bissau?+

10 of our plans name Orange Bissau 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 Orange Bissau?+

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

Does Orange Bissau run 5G, and will my plan get it?+

We could not confirm Orange Bissau's 5G status from an official source. Our plans that reach this network list 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.
