What are the major mobile networks available for a travel eSIM in Guatemala?

In Guatemala, the primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) are:

Tigo Guatemala: Operated by Millicom, Tigo offers a comprehensive range of mobile services, including voice, data, and high-speed 4G and 5G data services.
Claro Guatemala: A subsidiary of América Móvil, Claro provides mobile voice and data services, as well as fixed-line and broadband services.
Movistar Guatemala: Part of Telefónica, Movistar offers mobile voice and data services, focusing on competitive offerings and network expansion.

Additionally, Guatemala has Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) that offer mobile services by leasing access from major carriers. For example, Tuenti operates as an MVNO in the country. However, most travel eSIMs rely on MNO infrastructure, not MVNOs.

Can I get a travel eSIM with a phone number and SMS for Guatemala?

Travel eSIM plans that include a phone number and SMS capability are available for Guatemala from three providers: GlobaleSIM, Amigo e and Roamify. The GlobaleSIM and Roamify offers use the dialing code +1, which matches Guatemala’s code in the dataset, providing local phone numbers with inbound and outbound voice and inbound or inbound/outbound SMS. Amigo eSIM supplies numbers with the dialing code +44, and Roamify’s Guatemala‑specific plan uses +33, so those numbers are foreign and not locally registered in Guatemala. All three operators support SMS in addition to voice services.

Prices for these plans start around $6 USD for a 1 GB 7‑day option and rise to about $105 USD for a 20 GB plan valid for 365 days. Validity periods range from 7 days to 365 days, with data caps from 1 GB up to 30 GB. Travelers who prefer not to use a local or foreign phone number can still obtain a data‑only eSIM and use VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection.
