eSIM for Ireland

Choose your package

Do eSIMs work in Ireland?

Yes. An eSIM is a digital SIM that lives inside your phone, so you can add a data plan for Ireland without swapping any cards. You keep your home number on your main line and use the travel eSIM for data while you are away.

Your phone needs to support eSIM and be unlocked. Most recent iPhone and Android models do, and you can check yours on our list of phones that support eSIM before you buy.

Which eSIM plan is best for your trip to Ireland?

The right plan depends on how long you stay and how much you use your phone. Plans start at USD 0.64 and run from 1 to 180 days, with data up to 50 GB.

• Short city break: a small plan covers maps, messages and checking bookings in Dublin or Galway.
• Road trip along the coast: pick more data if you stream music, share photos or use navigation all day.
• Longer stay: choose a plan valid for 180 days so you are not buying again mid-trip.

If you would rather not count megabytes, an unlimited plan is also on sale for Ireland. You can always see the data left in your account and top up if you need more.

Where can I buy an eSIM for Ireland and install it?

You can buy it right here, on this page, in Arabic or English. The whole process takes a few minutes:

1. Pick the plan that fits your trip.
2. Pay by card or Apple Pay.
3. Install the eSIM with the QR code or the one-tap install link.
4. Turn on data roaming for the eSIM line when you arrive.

Installing before you fly is a good idea while you still have Wi-Fi, so your data is ready as soon as you land.

eSIM for Ireland and the UK

Many trips to Ireland include a stop in London, Edinburgh or Belfast. If your plans cross into the United Kingdom or continue through Europe, a single regional eSIM can be simpler than buying one plan per country. Take a look at our European Union and United Kingdom plans to compare.

Is there a downside to an eSIM?

The main limit is your phone: it must support eSIM and be unlocked, otherwise the plan cannot be installed. These plans are prepaid data plans, so check what you need before you leave. Beyond that, an eSIM saves you a trip to a shop and the risk of losing a tiny plastic card on the road.
