About eSIMs in El Salvador
Choose an eSIM for your trip to El Salvador and get mobile data without relying on a physical SIM. Plans are available for short visits and stays of up to 30 days, with both fixed-data and unlimited options.
Coverage & networks
The eSIM connects to Claro’s 4G network in El Salvador. It is data-only, so calls and texts are not included. You can use internet-based messaging and calling apps over your mobile data.
How much data you need
Choose from 0.1GB, 0.5GB, 1GB, 3GB, 5GB or an unlimited-data plan. Smaller allowances may suit light use such as messaging and occasional maps, while heavier use may call for 3GB, 5GB or unlimited data. Plans last for 1, 3, 5, 7, 15 or 30 days, and you can top up if you need more data.
Setting it up
Install the eSIM on a compatible device before you need to use it, then follow the setup instructions on your phone. Select the eSIM for mobile data when you are ready to connect in El Salvador. Keep your primary SIM available if you need to receive calls or texts on your usual number.
