Cyprus travel data eSIM
What is a Cyprus eSIM?
Traveling to Cyprus? A data‑only eSIM gives you instant online access the moment you land in places like Nicosia, Limassol, Paphos or Larnaca. Install it at home, then activate it when you first connect on the island, so you can navigate, book tables, or share photos without hunting for a local SIM.
In Cyprus the eSIM links to Vodafone 5G and Epic 5G networks. Your chosen data allowance runs for the specified period, counting from the first connection on the island, and you can use it for everyday online tasks while moving between cities or exploring historic sites.
Local networks

Questions people actually ask
If yours is not here, write to us — we answer within 24 hours.
Which operator(s) does the Cyprus eSIM use and what does that mean for a traveller?
The eSIM connects to Vodafone 5G and Epic 5G. That gives you access to the same mobile networks that local residents use, so you can browse, map routes, and use apps just as they do.
Does the eSIM also work in a real neighbouring country of Cyprus?
No, this is a single‑country plan valid only in Cyprus. Regional plans are available if you need connectivity in nearby countries such as Greece or Turkey.
Which plan size suits a trip to Nicosia and Larnaca?
As a rough guide, a 5 GB 30‑day plan often covers moderate use for two cities, while a 10 GB 30‑day plan provides extra flexibility for heavier browsing or streaming.
Will I lose my own phone number?
No. Your physical SIM stays in the phone and keeps your number for calls and WhatsApp. The eSIM only carries data, so both work side by side.
When does my plan start counting down?
When the eSIM first connects to a network at your destination — not when you buy it. So you can install it days before you fly without losing any time.
Is my phone compatible?
Most phones from 2018 onwards are: iPhone XS and later, Google Pixel 3 and later, Samsung Galaxy S20 and later. Your phone also has to be carrier-unlocked. Dial *#06# — if an EID appears, you have eSIM. Full list on our Device Compatibility page.
How fast will I get my QR code?
Usually within a couple of minutes of payment, by email. If it has not arrived, check spam first, then write to us and we will resend it immediately.
Can I use hotspot or tethering?
Yes, on every plan we sell. Share the connection with a laptop, a tablet or the rest of your group.
What if I change my mind?
If you have not installed the eSIM, you get a full refund within 180 days. Once a profile is activated and data has been used it cannot be refunded — the allowance is consumed from the network. Full detail in our Refund Policy.
Do you sell plans for groups?
Yes. For Umrah and Hajj groups, student trips and tour operators we deliver the QR codes as a single batch before departure, at group rates. Email us with your group size and destination.
