Faroe Islands travel data eSIM
What is a Faroe Islands eSIM?
A Faroe Islands eSIM gives you data‑only connectivity the moment you land on the archipelago, letting you explore the rugged fjords, cliffs and villages without hunting for a local SIM. Install it at home, keep your home number untouched, and let the plan start counting when you first connect in the Faroe Islands. It’s ideal for checking ferry schedules, navigating remote trails, and staying in touch while you wander between Tórshavn, Vágar and the other islands.
Our plans run on Faroese Telecom 5G, so once you activate the eSIM in the Faroe Islands it links to that operator’s network. Data usage is measured from the first connection and continues for the selected period, whether you’re cruising between islands or strolling through a village. The plan’s duration and volume stay fixed regardless of how you move around the islands.

Local networks
Which networks you connect to in Faroe Islands
When you connect in the Faroe Islands, the eSIM attaches to Faroese Telecom 5G’s network. The actual reach depends on the operator’s infrastructure in each area, so you’ll have access wherever the network is present. This setup lets you use maps, booking apps and local information services throughout your stay, without needing a separate local SIM.

Questions people actually ask
If yours is not here, write to us — we answer within 24 hours.
Which operator does the Faroe Islands eSIM use and what does that mean for a traveller?
The eSIM connects to Faroese Telecom 5G. This gives you access to that operator’s network, so you can use data services wherever the network is available during your stay.
Does the eSIM also work in a real neighbouring country of the Faroe Islands?
It is a single‑country plan valid only in the Faroe Islands. Regional plans are available for travelers who want coverage in neighbouring countries such as Iceland.
Which plan size suits a trip to Tórshavn and Klaksvík?
As a rough guide, the 5 GB or 10 GB 30‑day plans usually cover a moderate amount of browsing, navigation and app usage for a visit to both cities.
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.
