North Macedonia travel data eSIM

What is a North Macedonia eSIM?

A North Macedonia eSIM lets you arrive in Skopje, Lake Ohrid or the historic towns of the country with data already ready on your phone. You install the eSIM at home, then when you first connect after landing the data allowance begins. It provides a convenient, paper‑free way to stay online for navigation, translation, booking tickets and sharing your travel moments without swapping physical SIM cards.

Our eSIM connects to vip 5G, giving you access to that operator’s network while you travel across North Macedonia. The plan’s data pool is shared across all devices you use, and you can keep using it for the full duration regardless of where you move within the country.

Questions people actually ask

If yours is not here, write to us — we answer within 24 hours.

Which operator does the North Macedonia eSIM use and what does that mean for a traveller?

The eSIM connects to vip 5G. This gives you access to that operator’s network, so you can use data for navigation, apps and online services while you are in North Macedonia.

Can the eSIM also be used in a neighbouring country, such as Greece?

No, this is a single‑country plan valid only in North Macedonia. Regional plans are available for travelers who need coverage in multiple neighboring countries.

Which plan size suits a trip to Skopje and Ohrid?

As a rough guide, the 5 GB or 10 GB 30‑day plans usually cover a two‑city visit, depending on your data usage habits and activities while traveling.

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.
