Bulgaria eSIM FAQs
Yes! Bulgaria supports eSIM technology, allowing travellers to stay connected without needing a physical SIM card. An eSIM provides a convenient way to access mobile data throughout the country.
Activating an eSIM in Bulgaria is simple. Purchase your eSIM online, scan the QR code in your phone’s eSIM settings, and enable mobile data and roaming. For a detailed setup guide, visit our how to install an eSIM article.
Absolutely! Using a travel eSIM is a whole lot better than roaming in Bulgaria and here's why:
- Cost Savings: Avoid high roaming charges by using local data plans tailored to your destination.
- Flexibility: Easily switch between different data packages without the need to physically swap SIM cards.
- Control: Gain better oversight of your data usage and expenses, ensuring no unexpected fees or overages.
This depends. If you're using a regional eSIM ie. Europe or Asia, then you can use it in the countries specified on our plan page. But, if you have bought an eSIM for a specific country only, then you can only use it in that country.
The good news is, if you need to purchase an eSIM for a different country, you can do that on our website (yep the one you're on right now) in just a minute or two.
Our Bulgaria travel eSIMs are data-only meaning you can only use them for internet and not calling or SMS messages, unless you use an internet based messaging service such as WhatsApp.
Connectivity: If you're having connectivity issues with your Bulgaria travel eSIM check out our eSIM troubleshooting guide for a troubleshooting process or of course contact us and we will get you sorted ASAP.
