French Polynesia has two mobile network operators, Vini (OPT) and Vodafone (Pacific Mobile), offering 3G, 4G/LTE, and 5G connectivity across bands B3, B28, and n78. A travel eSIM will connect to these networks on modern eSIM-capable phones. Local eSIM availability is currently being verified.

Connectivity options in French Polynesia are limited, and roaming through a travel eSIM tends to be expensive. A regional or global travel eSIM may be the only practical option for visitors, though coverage outside main towns can be sparse. Verify coverage for your specific travel plans before relying entirely on mobile connectivity.
