How to use an eSIM in the Faroe Islands

Setting up takes a few steps:

1. Buy your plan and open the confirmation.
2. Scan the QR code, or tap the install link on your phone.
3. Keep the eSIM switched on for mobile data and turn on data roaming for it if your phone asks.
4. When you arrive, your phone connects and your data is ready.

Your home SIM can stay in the phone for calls and messages. If you are new to this, our guide on what an eSIM is and how it works explains it in plain words.

Choosing the right plan for your trip

Think about how long you will stay and how you use your phone. Maps, messages and a few photos need little data, while video calls and uploads need more.

• Short visits: a small plan with a short validity suits a quick stopover, starting from 1 days.
• Longer trips: plans run up to 30 days, so a week of hiking or a slow tour of the islands is covered.
• Heavy use: choose a larger plan, up to 20 GB.

An unlimited plan is also on sale for the Faroe Islands, if you would rather not count megabytes.

For a typical week of light use, this small one-week plan is a calm place to start, and you can top up later if you need more.

What is the downside of an eSIM?

The main limit is the phone itself. An eSIM only works on an unlocked, eSIM-compatible phone, so an older or carrier-locked handset will not install it. You also need a working internet connection to install the eSIM, so it helps to do it at home or at the airport before you travel.

Once installed, the eSIM sits next to your usual SIM, and you can check the data left and top up whenever you like.
