Peru: Mobile Coverage & Carriers
Peru's mobile market is served by four major carriers: Claro, Movistar, Entel, and Bitel. All three modern wireless generations—3G, 4G/LTE, and 5G—are commercially launched in the country. A roaming eSIM is likely to operate on LTE bands B4 (AWS), B7 (2600 MHz), and B28 (700 MHz), with 5G connectivity available on the n78 band at 3.5 GHz.
Some local carriers in Peru do issue eSIMs natively, offering an alternative to physical SIM cards for compatible devices. This option may simplify activation for travelers and those switching between devices, though availability and support vary by carrier.
