Why an eSIM for Europe

Europe is the easiest place in the world to travel with an eSIM. Coverage is dense, networks are fast, and borders are close together, so a single regional plan can carry you from Lisbon to Helsinki without a new SIM at every crossing.

The catch with traditional SIMs is roaming. Step outside your home network's zone and the per-megabyte charges start. An eSIM sidesteps that: you buy local or regional data up front, see the price before you pay, and top up from the same crypto balance whenever you need more.

  • One regional plan can cover most of the EU and Schengen area.
  • Fast 4G and 5G in cities and along major routes.
  • No roaming surprises: you see the full price before paying.
  • Keep your home number on its physical SIM for calls and codes.

One eSIM for all of Europe

Crossing borders? A regional eSIM keeps you online in every country it covers, with no new plan at each border. Staying in one country? The country plans further down are usually cheaper.

Data only, no phone number. The plan starts when it first connects in a covered country, and uses local partner networks at 3G, 4G, 5G speeds depending on where you are. Your data reaches the internet through the United States, so some websites and streaming apps may show you content for that country. Staying in one country the whole trip? A country plan is usually cheaper.

What to know before you travel

  • EU roaming rules do not cover visitors

    The EU's roam-like-at-home rule only applies to SIMs from EU and EEA operators. Arrive with a US, UK, Australian or Asian SIM and your carrier's own roaming prices apply. A travel eSIM gives you local-style prices instead.

  • The UK and Switzerland are included

    Since Brexit, UK and EU carriers can charge roaming again, and many European plans dropped the UK. Switzerland was never in the EU at all. Our Europe eSIM covers both, alongside 31 other countries.

  • Where the Europe plan stops

    It does not cover the Balkans outside the EU (Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Albania, North Macedonia), Turkey, Ukraine, Moldova, or microstates like Monaco and Andorra. Buy a country plan for those stops, from the same balance.

Need a local phone number there too? An eSIM is data only, so see virtual numbers for Europe.

eSIM for Europe: FAQ

Does one eSIM work across Europe?+

Yes. Our Europe eSIM works in 33 countries, including France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the UK, on one plan. If you are staying in a single country the whole trip, a country plan is usually cheaper. The full country list sits right under the plans.

Will my eSIM work in both the EU and the UK?+

Ours does. Since the UK left the EU, some European plans dropped it, but our Europe eSIM includes the UK alongside the EU countries. Check the country list under the plans for the rest.

How fast is the data?+

Most European networks deliver fast 4G, with 5G in cities and along major routes. Speed depends on the local network your eSIM connects to, not on SimVala.
