The country dataset lists 3 local operator names across TripoSIM catalog entries. Those names can belong to different purchasable plans. There is no proof in this country summary that one purchased profile can use every named network. Check the network list for the exact SKU before paying. Manual selection only works if your purchased plan is authorized to use the selected operator.

Guatemala ranks #5 of 38 North America destinations by number of listed partner networks.

5G in Guatemala

11 of 38 North America destinations list 5G. 5G is listed for at least some plans. You also need a 5G-capable phone, and 5G availability varies by plan, location and device; the catalog-wide flag is not a coverage guarantee. 5G rarely changes how much data you use, only how fast it arrives.

Source and method

Figures come from the TripoSIM travel eSIM dataset (CC BY 4.0), generated from TripoSIM's live catalog on 2 November 2026: country-level observed price fields in USD, which do not verify a purchasable plan for a specific trip. Rankings compare the median price per GB across observed catalog entries in each country. This site is owned by the same company as TripoSIM, so this is first-party data, not an independent market survey. Prices, plan duration and individual terms can change; the checkout page is authoritative. A country-level network list can combine different SKUs, not networks guaranteed in any one purchased profile.
