Colombia: Mobile Coverage & Carriers
Colombia has four major mobile network operators: Claro, Movistar, Tigo, and WOM. These carriers commercially operate 3G, 4G/LTE, and 5G networks across the country. The primary LTE bands available for roaming are Band 4 (AWS), Band 7 (2600 MHz), and Band 28 (700 MHz), while 5G services utilize Band n78 (3.5 GHz). Coverage and band availability may vary by operator and region.
Some local Colombian carriers have begun issuing eSIMs, though availability may be limited or vary by provider. Travelers relying on eSIM connectivity should verify compatibility with their specific carrier before arrival. Both traditional SIM cards and eSIM options are generally available through major operators in the country.
