eSimHero eSIMAbout eSIMs in Italy
Whether you are visiting Rome, exploring the Amalfi Coast or travelling through northern Italy, an eSIM gives you a data connection for your trip without relying on public Wi-Fi. Choose from short stays through to longer options of up to 180 days.
Coverage & networks
This Italy eSIM connects to Iliad, TIM and Wind networks, with 5G available. It is a local plan for use in Italy, so it is suited to trips centred on the country. Calls and text messages are not included; the plans provide mobile data.
How much data you need
Choose from 1GB, 3GB, 5GB, 10GB, 20GB, 50GB or unlimited data. Light use such as maps, messages and occasional browsing may suit a smaller allowance, while streaming, frequent navigation and hotspot use can require more data. Available durations range from 1 day to 180 days, including 3, 5, 7, 14, 15, 30 and 31 days. Top-ups are supported if you need more data during your trip.
Setting it up
Select the data allowance and duration that match your plans, then add the eSIM through your phone’s mobile network or eSIM settings. Keep your existing SIM available for other services if needed, and make sure mobile data is set to use the Italy eSIM when you arrive.
