Data plans
Choose your gigabytes. Best value if you know roughly what you use.
Unlimited plans
Never watch your data. Just pick how long your trip is.
Prices are in USD and payable in crypto. No contract and no auto-renewal, and any balance you do not use stays on your account for next time.
Turning on roaming can cost $10 or more a day. A whole Czech Republic trip starts at $1.79.
See the plansWhy an eSIM for Czech Republic
The Czech Republic is a country of fairy-tale spires and medieval towns, from Prague's Charles Bridge and castle to the red rooftops of Cesky Krumlov and the beer halls of Bohemia. An eSIM keeps you online for maps, tram tickets, and translation the moment you land at Prague's Vaclav Havel Airport.
It is also the beer capital of the world, where locals drink more pilsner per head than anyone, and half the fun is finding the right pub. You buy the data before you fly, pay from your crypto balance with no ID, and keep your home number on its own SIM for calls and bank codes.
- Fast 4G and 5G across Prague, Brno, and the whole country.
- Online on arrival at Prague's Vaclav Havel Airport.
- One plan for the cities, the castles, and the beer towns.
- Pay in crypto with no ID, and keep your home number.
Is a Czech Republic eSIM right for you?
Whoever you are travelling as, the setup is the same: buy, scan, connect. Here is what it means for you.
Czech Republic eSIM vs a local SIM vs roaming
Coverage is fast on every option across the country. The real differences are for non-EU visitors, and for how privately you can pay. Here is how they compare.

EU and EEA visitors roam free on their home plans in the Czech Republic, so this is aimed at non-EU travellers and at anyone who prefers to pay privately in crypto. Costs are rough guides, not quotes.
Coverage and networks in Czech Republic
Depending on the plan, your eSIM connects to a major Czech network such as O2, T-Mobile, or Vodafone. Coverage is fast and near-total across Prague, Brno, and the cities, in the historic towns, and along the roads and rail between them, with strong 5G in the cities.
Expect strong eSIM coverage in Prague, Brno, Cesky Krumlov, with data across the rest of Czech Republic. Signal follows the local network, so it is strongest in cities and along main routes.
Coverage by area
Fast, near-total coverage across Prague, Brno, Ostrava, and the towns, with strong 5G. This is where almost all your data goes.
Reliable across Cesky Krumlov, Karlovy Vary, Kutna Hora, and the Bohemian and Moravian countryside, with only the odd rural dip.
Coverage holds well along the main rail lines and highways, so you stay online city to city.
How much data do you need in Czech Republic?
Whether your Czech Republic trip is 7 days, 2 weeks, or a month, pick the data size to match. Not sure? Slide your trip length below and we will suggest a plan.
A Czech trip leans on maps, tram and train tickets, translation from Czech, restaurant and pub reviews, and photos to the cloud. For a one to two week trip, 5 to 10 GB suits most people. The Unlimited tiers, from 3 to 30 days, suit heavier use or hotspotting, and you can top up any time.
Estimate your data for Czech Republic
Social, photos, some video
An estimate to guide you, not a limit. Wi-Fi at your hotel covers a lot, and you can top up any time, so it is fine to start smaller.

Using an eSIM in Czech Republic's top cities
One Czech Republic eSIM covers all of these. Here is what to expect, city by city.
eSIM in Prague
Fast 4G and 5G across the city, from Charles Bridge and the castle to Wenceslas Square and the airport. Your eSIM keeps maps, the PID transit app, and translation live as you wander the old town and cross the Vltava.
eSIM in Cesky Krumlov
Good coverage across the fairy-tale town, the castle, and the river bend below. Handy for booking rafting or a castle tour, and for finding your way through the twisting medieval lanes.
eSIM in Pilsen
Reliable signal across the home of pilsner, from the historic brewery to the main square. Useful for brewery-tour times, reviews, and checking the train back to Prague.
Yes, you can call and text in Czech Republic
Your eSIM is internet. So every calling and messaging app works, just like at home. No new apps to learn, nothing to set up.
Message anyone
WhatsApp, iMessage, Messenger all run over your data.
Call home for free

Good to know
- •Coverage is fast and near-total across Prague, Brno, and the whole country, so you will rarely be offline anywhere you actually go.
- •EU and EEA visitors already roam free on their home plans here. This eSIM is for everyone else, and for anyone who would rather pay privately in crypto.
- •Czech is a tricky language for visitors, so a translation app and offline maps earn their keep, especially outside the tourist centre of Prague.
- •The eSIM carries data. Keep your home SIM active for calls and bank codes.

Why travellers choose SimVala
“Post-Brexit I don't get free EU roaming, so this covered Prague perfectly. Online at the airport, flawless across the old town and out to Cesky Krumlov. Paid in crypto, no ID.”
“Long weekend of Prague castles and beer halls. Data was fast everywhere, and maps and reviews made finding the good pubs easy. Kept my US number for the bank codes.”
“Great across Prague and Brno, and it held up on the train between them. Czech is hard to read, so having maps and a translation app always live was a lifesaver.”

If Czech Republic is one stop of a bigger trip, one regional plan covers the whole area on a single eSIM.
eSIM in Czech Republic: FAQ
Does my phone support eSIM?+
Most phones from the last few years do, including recent iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, and Google Pixel models.
How do I pay?+
In crypto only: Bitcoin, Monero, USDT, USDC, Solana, and more.
When does my plan start?+
Your plan validity begins when you install and activate the eSIM, not when you buy it.
Will an eSIM work in the Czech Republic?+
Yes, as long as your phone supports eSIM and is carrier unlocked. The eSIM connects to a local network in the Czech Republic and gives you data the moment you arrive.
How much data do I need in the Czech Republic?+
It depends on what you do. Maps and messaging use very little, while video and hotspotting use much more. For a typical one to two week trip, 3 to 5 GB suits most travelers, and you can top up any time.
Can I keep my phone number in the Czech Republic?+
Yes. Your home number stays on your physical SIM for calls and codes, while the eSIM carries local data. Both work at once on a dual-SIM phone.
Can I buy my eSIM before I travel?+
Yes, and you should. Buy and install it before you fly, then switch the line on when you land in the Czech Republic. Your plan's days only start counting when you activate it, not when you buy.
Does the plan expire?+
Each plan runs for a set number of days once you activate it, shown on the plan. Any balance you have not spent stays on your account for your next trip, so nothing is wasted.
Can I use my eSIM as a personal hotspot?+
On most plans, yes, so you can share your connection with a laptop or a friend. Tethering uses more data, so pick a larger plan if you rely on it.
Do EU visitors even need a Czech eSIM?+
If you have an EU or EEA plan, you already roam free in the Czech Republic, so you may not need one. This eSIM is aimed at visitors from outside the EU, such as the UK, the US, and further afield, and at anyone who would rather buy data privately in crypto with no ID.
Is coverage good across the country, not just Prague?+
Yes. Coverage is fast and near-total across Prague, Brno, and the smaller cities, in the historic towns, and along the roads and rail between them, so you stay online almost everywhere you go.
Will I need a translation app in the Czech Republic?+
Probably, outside the tourist heart of Prague. Czech is a tricky language for visitors, so keeping data live for a translation app and offline maps earns its keep, especially in the smaller towns.
Is there an unlimited data plan for the Czech Republic?+
Yes. Unlimited plans run from 3 to 30 days, handy for a longer trip or heavy use like hotspotting. Sized plans are the cheaper pick if you use less, and you can top up any time.
