Common Questions

The details worth knowing about your French Polynesia eSIM

The eSIM connects to Vini (4G/5G) and Vodafone Polynésie (4G only). Vini has 5G only in central Papeete and Faaa. Both networks share similar 4G bands, but large parts of the Marquesas Islands and Tuamotu Archipelago have no mobile service at all.

Both Vini and Vodafone use 4G bands B1, B3, B7, and B20. Most international phones support these bands. Phones lacking B20 (700 MHz) may get weaker signal in rural or indoor areas, since B20 provides better range.

No. The eSIM only works on the networks of French Polynesia (Vini and Vodafone Polynésie). It stops at the maritime borders. If you travel to the Cook Islands, Fiji, or other Pacific territories, you would need a separate eSIM for each country.

The eSIM data is not filtered or blocked. It connects to the local networks with standard roaming terms. Median download speed is 38.21 Mbps (Ookla, July 2025), but actual speed depends on your location and network congestion.

Coverage is absent across large areas of the Marquesas Islands and Tuamotu Archipelago. Vini 5G only reaches central Papeete and Faaa. On ferry routes between islands, expect no signal once away from populated coasts.
