Study abroad
Mobile data for your first days abroad.
The first days of a study-abroad semester often mean navigating a new campus and city, registering for classes, and messaging home, before local paperwork like a bank account or long-term SIM is sorted out. A travel eSIM covers that gap with mobile data that's ready as soon as you land.
Ready before your first day on campus
Install the eSIM over Wi-Fi before you fly, so you have maps, messaging, and email working from the airport through orientation week.
A bridge to a long-term local SIM
Many students eventually switch to a local carrier plan for a full semester. A travel eSIM is a way to stay connected during the days it takes to sort out local paperwork, ID, or a bank account.
Keep your home number for calls
On a compatible dual-SIM phone, keep your home number active for calls and verification codes while the eSIM handles mobile data.
FAQ
Quick answers before you travel.
Can an eSIM replace a local SIM for a full semester?
It can, but many students switch to a local carrier plan for a full semester once they've settled in, since long-term local plans are often better value than continuing travel data plans.
Will I still receive verification codes on my home number?
On a compatible dual-SIM phone, your home SIM can remain active for calls and SMS while the eSIM provides data.
