Global Starlink offers several prepaid eSIM plans that include a phone number and the ability to send and receive SMS while traveling in France. The plans that provide SMS can be found under the “Orange” and “Orange Global Explorer” range, all of which list a dialing code of +33, indicating that the phone number is a local French number and that users can make and receive calls as well as send and receive SMS. These plans have validity from 15 days to 30 days and cover France plus between 32 and 38 other countries. Prices on these packages range from roughly $17.00 USD for the 15GB 28‑day card to about $71.00 USD for the 100GB 30‑day card.
Other French‑coverage eSIMs from Global Starlink include dialing codes of +34, which are Spanish numbers that support inbound and outbound voice but do not list SMS capabilities. Since the availability of a local French number and SMS depends on the specific plan selected, users are advised to confirm the chosen plan’s radio and messaging features directly with Global Starlink before purchasing.
