Will the US iPhone work with an European provider?

[Darkhour]

hello


I purchased my iPhone in the states but I'm moving to France.
is there I can sign a contract for my iPhone to work in France?
can I get a sim card in France at orange ( the provider in France)

Or is there another way for my iPhone to work there?
I am asking so I can use the phone capabilites.


Thanks in advance please tell me I won't have to buy another
one there, I bought my iPhone when it first came out

You'd have to unlock the phone. I don't think Apple or at&t are very willing to do it themselves. As long as its unlocked though you shouldn't have any issues.
