eSIM by region

17 regional eSIM plans cover 205+ countries from EUR 3.50. One plan keeps working as you cross borders, with no swapping SIMs and no new charge at each frontier.

Country plan or regional plan?

A country eSIM is the cheapest way to cover a single-destination trip and runs on that country's own networks. A regional eSIM costs a little more but keeps working as you cross borders, which is what you want for an interrail route, a Gulf itinerary or a road trip across several countries.

The Global eSIM covers 90 countries on one plan and can be topped up from anywhere.

Frequently asked questions

What is an eSIM?

An eSIM is a digital SIM profile you install from a QR code, with no plastic card to insert. Buy a plan, install it over Wi-Fi before you fly, and it connects when you land. Your home SIM stays in the phone, so your own number keeps working. How eSIMs work, in full โ†’

How does a travel eSIM work?

A travel eSIM is a digital SIM you install on a compatible, unlocked phone. It connects to the networks covered by your chosen plan. Plans provide data; some also include calls and SMS. Check the planโ€™s allowances and activation instructions before you buy. How eSIMs work, in full โ†’

Is my phone compatible with an eSIM?

Check your exact model and regional version in the compatibility guide, then look for 'Add eSIM' in your phone's settings. The phone also has to be carrier-unlocked. Brand and release year are not enough on their own, because some regional versions of an eSIM-capable model ship without it. Check your exact phone model โ†’

When does my data plan start - at purchase or on arrival?

On arrival. The clock starts when the eSIM first connects to a network inside the plan's coverage, not when you pay and not when you install, which is what makes installing at home over Wi-Fi safe. Buy ahead if you like, and connect for the first time within a year of purchase.

Can I keep my regular phone number?

Yes. Keep your home SIM installed alongside the travel eSIM. Your existing number stays with your home SIM, and WhatsApp keeps the number you registered. Some travel plans include a separate phone number. Your home carrierโ€™s calls, texts and roaming remain separate.

Can I make calls and send texts?

Choose a plan with included call minutes or SMS to use those services through your phoneโ€™s normal calling and messaging apps. Data-only plans support internet calling and messaging apps. Check the allowances on your selected plan. Charges on your home line stay separate.
