Albania: Mobile Coverage & Carriers
Albania has three major mobile network operators: Vodafone, One (Telekom), and ALBtelecom. These carriers provide 3G, 4G/LTE, and 5G services across the country. The primary LTE bands used are B20 (800 MHz) and B3 (1800 MHz), while 5G services operate on the n78 band (3.5 GHz). Roaming eSIMs are likely to connect to these bands when operating on local networks.
Some local carriers in Albania issue eSIMs, though availability may vary. For travelers seeking eSIM options, it is advisable to verify current eSIM support directly with individual carriers, as offerings may differ across operators and regions.
