Question
Can I get Dish Network in a foreign country?
Are you wanting to watch American TV programming on Dish Network in your timeshare or vacation home outside the U.S.? You may think it’s impossible, but guess what? It’s not!
Some people have successfully installed Dish systems in the Caribbean and parts of South America. All they needed was a satellite dish, a Dish receiver, and a U.S. address linked to their account.
Of course, there are some legal and technical challenges that you need to overcome before you attempt this. We don’t know how these people got their receivers authorized, or how they handled the U.S. address requirement. We also don’t recommend any local satellite shops that offer Dish systems in foreign countries. You’ll have to do your own homework and take your own risks.
But if you’re curious, you can see some amazing photos of Dish Network in foreign countries that our readers sent us. And if you have your own photos of Dish Network installations in foreign countries, please share them with us. We’d love to add them to our collection!
(Dish says their signals are not available outside the U.S., but we’ve seen them in bars and restaurants all over the Caribbean (non U.S. territories). We’ve even seen actual retail stores selling the service!
