Compare 14 eSIM options currently listed for Italy, starting at $2.69 USD. Choose a validity period that covers your whole trip, then compare the data allowance and the conditions of the plan you want to buy.
Available validity periods: 5 days, 7 days, 10 days, 15 days, 30 days. These are plan validity periods; check when the validity starts before installing or activating your chosen eSIM.
Rome, Florence and Venice by train, the Amalfi Coast by ferry and the Dolomites on foot use data in very different ways. Set the eSIM up before you fly into Fiumicino, Malpensa or Venice; it activates when it first connects to TIM, Vodafone, WindTre or Iliad. Plans are data only and must be installed and activated within 60 days of purchase.
Trenitalia and Italo tickets, timed tickets for the Colosseum or the Uffizi, and maps between stations all need data on travel days. A total allowance suits uneven use; a daily plan makes a long, busy itinerary easier to budget.
Signal can drop on cliff roads, on ferries between Positano, Capri and Amalfi, and in rural Sicily or Sardinia. Save ferry tickets and offline maps before you leave the hotel Wi-Fi.
Valleys and ski towns usually have coverage, but high trails and passes often do not. Download offline maps and trail apps before you set out; no eSIM can promise signal on a mountain.
Vatican City and San Marino are not in the country list, so service there is not guaranteed. The plan keeps working if you continue to France, Switzerland or Austria.
It connects through TIM, Vodafone, WindTre and Iliad on their 4G/LTE networks. 5G is not guaranteed.
Yes. Apps such as FREENOW, itTaxi or Uber, where it operates in your city, let you book through the app over the eSIM data.
33 European countries in total, including France, Switzerland, Austria, Croatia, Slovenia and Greece. Turkey, Poland, Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Serbia are not included.
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.
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.
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.
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.
