Vodafone TR and travel eSIM in Turkey
Vodafone TR is one of the networks your eSIM may use in Turkey. Here is who actually decides which network you get, and what to do with that.

Quick answer
- 29 of the 87 Turkey plans we sell name Vodafone TR as a reachable network, at 4G and 5G.
- Vodafone runs LTE on B1, B3, B7, B8, B20, B38 and 5G on n28, n78; your phone needs at least one of them.
- Travel plans connect by roaming, so no plan can promise one specific network.
Vodafone TR in brief
Vodafone Türkiye was formerly Telsim, and Wikipedia's 5G list shows it starting commercial 5G in April 2026.
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.
Vodafone's bands and technology
| Item | Vodafone |
|---|---|
| LTE (4G) | B1, B3, B7, B8, B20, B38 |
| 5G NR | n28, n78 |
| 5G launched | 2026 |
| Network code (MCC-MNC) | 286-02 |
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 Vodafone 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 Vodafone
Mobile networks in Turkey are licensed, and their spectrum assigned, by the Information and Communication Technologies Authority (BTK). 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 Vodafone TR
From the supplier record behind each package, 29 of the 87 plans we currently sell for Turkey declare Vodafone TR 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 Vodafone TR 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.
Vodafone beside the other networks in Turkey
| Network | LTE bands | 5G bands |
|---|---|---|
| Vodafone TR | B1, B3, B7, B8, B20, B38 | n28, n78 |
| Turkcell | B1, B3, B7, B20 | n28, n78 |
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 Vodafone TR is weak where you are, try selecting Turkcell manually in the network settings, and keep data roaming on for the eSIM profile.
FAQ
Will my eSIM definitely connect to Vodafone TR?+
29 of our plans name Vodafone TR 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 Vodafone?+
At least one of these, LTE: B1, B3, B7, B8, B20, B38; 5G: n28, n78. Your phone's band list is on the maker's spec page for your model, under "Cellular" or "Network".
Does Vodafone TR run 5G, and will my plan get it?+
Yes. Vodafone has run commercial 5G since 2026, on n28, 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.
