That depends on your cell phone. If it’s a GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) capable cell phone, then yes, it will work internationally. Unlike the United States, the rest of the world operates on the GSM standard Our mobile service providers operate under different standards, most of which can’t be used on a GSM network. Before traveling outside the US, double check with your cell phone’s manufacturer, just to be certain.
