Dominican Republic: Mobile Coverage & Carriers
The Dominican Republic has three major mobile network operators: Claro, Altice, and Viva. These carriers offer commercial service across 3G, 4G/LTE, and 5G generations. The networks utilize several key LTE bands including B2 (1900 MHz), B4 (AWS), and B7 (2600 MHz), with 5G services deployed on the n78 band (3.5 GHz). Some local carriers in the country do issue eSIMs, though availability may vary between operators.
Visitors and travelers planning to use a roaming eSIM in the Dominican Republic should expect to connect primarily through the LTE bands mentioned above, with 5G access available in select areas where n78 is deployed. Given medium confidence in the available information, it is advisable to contact your eSIM provider beforehand to confirm compatibility with the specific bands and networks operating in the country.
