Choose a France eSIM for how you will travel

Paris, the Riviera and the Alps call for different amounts of data. Install the eSIM at home: it switches on by itself when your phone first finds Orange, Bouygues or Free after landing at Charles de Gaulle or Orly. Every plan here is data only and must be installed and activated within 60 days of purchase.

A week in Paris

Bonjour RATP or Citymapper for the metro, SNCF Connect for train tickets, museum time slots and Uber, Bolt or G7 for late rides all need data on the move. If you use maps and apps all day, a daily plan suits you; pick 2GB per day for heavier photo and video use, or a total allowance for lighter or uneven use.

Provence, the Loire or the Alps by car

Signal is good in towns and on the autoroutes, but can fade in Alpine valleys, on Corsican mountain roads and in deep countryside. Download Google Maps or Waze areas offline before you leave the hotel Wi-Fi.

The Riviera and Monaco

Nice, Cannes and Antibes are covered. Monaco is not in the plan's country list, so expect no service once your phone connects to a Monaco network; use Wi-Fi there or stay on the French side.

Eurostar, Brussels or Geneva

The same plan keeps working in the United Kingdom, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy and Spain, so a day trip to Brussels or a TGV to Geneva needs no second eSIM.

Which networks does the France eSIM use?

It connects through Orange, Bouygues Telecom and Free Mobile on their 4G/LTE networks. 5G is not guaranteed.

Does it work in Monaco or Andorra?

No. Neither is in the plan's country list. It covers mainland France and Corsica plus 32 other European countries, including the UK and Switzerland. French overseas territories such as Guadeloupe or Réunion are not included.

Can I keep my home number active for calls?

Yes. The eSIM adds data only, so your usual SIM can stay switched on for calls and texts while the eSIM handles data; your home carrier may charge roaming for those calls.

How much data do you need in France?

Start with what you use away from Wi-Fi: maps, translation and messages need less data than video, video calls or a laptop hotspot. Check your phone’s recent data usage for a useful baseline and leave room for travel days.

Daily-data plans: compare the high-speed allowance for each day and read what happens after it is used. A reduced-speed connection and a high-speed connection are different allowances.

Total-data plans: the allowance is shared across the validity period. This can suit uneven use, but a heavy day can leave less data for the rest of the trip.

Check these details before buying

  • Check that your phone supports eSIM and is carrier-unlocked.
  • Confirm the activation rule and expiry date for the selected plan. Installation does not have the same effect on every provider’s plan.
  • If you need a laptop connection, check hotspot support on the selected plan.
  • For a regional plan, confirm that every country on your route is included in its coverage list.

Questions about your France eSIM

Can I keep my existing phone number?

On a compatible dual-SIM phone, you can use the travel eSIM for data alongside your home SIM. Keep data roaming off on the home SIM unless you intend to use it, and check your home carrier’s charges for calls and SMS abroad.

When should I install and activate the eSIM?

Install it before you travel while you are on stable Wi-Fi, and keep the eSIM line switched off until you land. Then turn it on and allow data roaming for that eSIM only. Your plan details state whether validity starts at installation or at the first connection in the destination.

Can I order a physical SIM instead?

Physical SIMs are only shipped to addresses in Vietnam. For other trips, choose an eSIM, and check that your phone supports eSIM and is carrier-unlocked before you buy.
