Paris CDG eSIM FAQ

Yes, Charles de Gaulle Airport offers free unlimited WiFi. You can use it to download your eSIM, but we recommend installing it before you fly to ensure you can use GPS or call a taxi immediately upon arrival.
Does eSIM work outside Paris across France?
Absolutely! Your Cellesim eSIM provides seamless coverage in Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Nice, and all over France using Orange and SFR premium 5G networks.
