Not sure if you need an eSIM?
YOUR SITUATION → RECOMMENDATION
Your home carrier includes the destination at a clear, affordable rate → Use roaming
Your carrier charges per day and you're staying more than 3 days → eSIM is usually cheaper
You don't know what your carrier charges at the destination → Check carrier first, then decide
You need data immediately on arrival, no setup time → eSIM — install before departure
Read the eSIM vs roaming guide →
Before you install any eSIM

Check your phone is carrier-unlocked and supports eSIM. Dial *#06# — if you see an EID number, your device supports eSIM. If your phone is locked to your home carrier, a travel eSIM will not work.
