Orange Caraïbe and travel eSIM in French Guiana

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

Quick answer

  • 14 of the 21 French Guiana plans we sell name Orange Caraïbe as a reachable network, at 4G and 5G.
  • Orange Caraïbe runs LTE on B3, B20 and 5G on n78, n1; your phone needs at least one of them.
  • Travel plans connect by roaming, so no plan can promise one specific network.

Orange Caraïbe in brief

Orange Caraïbe says its 5G is available only in deployed zones, using the 3.5 GHz band and, in some zones, 2.1 GHz.

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 Caraïbe 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.

Orange Caraïbe's coverage map

Orange Caraïbe 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 Orange Caraïbe's own network; a roaming plan may not get every technology it shows.

Who licenses Orange Caraïbe

Mobile networks in French Guiana are licensed, and their spectrum assigned, by the Autorité de régulation des communications électroniques, des postes et de la distribution de la presse (Arcep). 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 Caraïbe

From the supplier record behind each package, 14 of the 21 plans we currently sell for French Guiana declare Orange Caraïbe as a network the profile can reach, at 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 Orange Caraïbe 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.

Orange CaraïbeB3, B20n78, n1
Digicel Antilles FrançaisesB3, B7, B20Not verified

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 Orange Caraïbe is weak where you are, try selecting Digicel Antilles Françaises or Free Caraïbe or SFR Caraïbe manually in the network settings, and keep data roaming on for the eSIM profile.

FAQ

Will my eSIM definitely connect to Orange Caraïbe?+

14 of our plans name Orange Caraïbe 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 Caraïbe?+

At least one of these, LTE: B3, B20; 5G: n78, n1. Your phone's band list is on the maker's spec page for your model, under "Cellular" or "Network".

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

Yes. Orange Caraïbe has run commercial 5G, on n78, n1. 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.
