Which mobile networks you get in Guinea-Bissau

Orange is the clear default in Guinea-Bissau: it is named by most eSIM providers’ published network lists, while MTN Areeba appears less often. With only two consumer networks named, the operator choice is largely made before you pick a plan; the meaningful differences between eSIMs are likely to sit elsewhere, unless a plan specifically lists MTN Areeba. No provider has published 5G for these networks, so 4G is the highest stated technology here—a fact about the listings rather than a measured limit on the country’s networks.

Where your data comes out in Guinea-Bissau

This is a split: one provider breaks out in Guinea-Bissau, while the others route through the United Kingdom or United States. That choice affects both delay and your apparent location: traffic to local services may typically take about 105ms round trip or more via a foreign gateway, without reducing download speed, and your IP may look British or American. For example, a local banking or government app may reject a foreign IP, whereas an in-country breakout should behave normally; check the table if that matters.

Where providers break out, nearest country first. Estimated from distance, not measured.

Guinea-Bissau eSIM prices, month by month

Data has been getting cheaper in Guinea-Bissau: a gigabyte typically goes for $2.92 now, against $4.77 when we started tracking it in December 2025, a fall of 39% across 11 months.

That is well above the $1.98 a gigabyte typically costs across the 234 destinations we track. Guinea-Bissau is one of the pricier places we cover, at 154 of 234 counting from the cheapest, and the gap between the best and worst plan on this page is correspondingly wide. The move is recent: the figure went up 165% in October 2026 alone.

Every figure here is the lower quartile of the plans in our catalogue that month — the cheaper end of what was actually on sale, rather than an average pulled up by a handful of premium plans.

Frequently Asked Questions about eSIMs for Guinea-Bissau

How many travel eSIM brands (providers) are available for use in Guinea-Bissau, and how many prepaid data plans are there?

Travel eSIM sellers here name Orange and MTN Areeba as the underlying operators, with Orange listed first for stated reach. The provider field is broad too: Bloomy eSIM, Roamix and Stellar eSIM are among the brands offering plans. Brand presence alone is a poor guide to suitability; the useful differences lie in how much data a plan includes, how long it lasts and what its terms say once the allowance is used. A familiar name does not settle those questions.

What are the mobile networks available for a travel eSIM in Guinea-Bissau?

Orange and MTN Areeba are the local operators named in travel-eSIM listings for Guinea-Bissau. That gives you a choice of underlying network, but it is usually made indirectly: the eSIM provider decides which operator it lists for each plan. The network you use is therefore tied to the eSIM you select, rather than being something you normally choose after installation. Checking the provider’s network information can tell you this in advance, and different eSIMs may be associated with different operators.

Are there any free data eSIM plans available for Guinea-Bissau?

A free data option does exist, but it is a small trial allowance rather than a package for a full trip. It is usually limited to one per customer and may require registering with the provider, making it more useful for getting online soon after arrival than for covering a stay. Guinea-Bissau is served by most major eSIM providers, but the broad choice is mainly among paid plans, not free data offers.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Guinea-Bissau?

Unlimited-labelled plans are available from multiple providers for Guinea-Bissau, but the label is not a guarantee of unrestricted speed. One offer may give full-speed data up to a daily allowance, while another applies its limit across the whole validity period. Once that allowance is used, the connection is slowed, potentially making video difficult and navigation sluggish. Check how the allowance is measured, when it resets, and the reduced speed in the plan details before buying.

eSIM Providers for Guinea-Bissau

The choice is less about a crowded field of networks than about how many each eSIM names: Orange and MTN Areeba are the widest-reaching options, many providers state only one, while Bloomy eSIM reaches the most distinct networks. A multi-network option gives you another operator to try if the first is weak; with a single-network plan, check which operator is stated for your itinerary. If no network is named, treat that as unknown, not proof of no reach.
