Croatia eSIM

CheapESIM also provides a simple compatibility checker on our website to guide you.

Almost every flagship smartphone model released since 2019 supports eSIM, making them excellent choices for CheapESIM's international travel plans. Key compatible devices include the iPhone XS, XR, and all newer models; Google Pixel 3 and all subsequent Pixel phones; and the Samsung Galaxy S20 series, Note 20 series, and all newer flagship Galaxy devices. Many mid-range phones from brands like OnePlus and Oppo are also increasingly adding eSIM support. This broad compatibility ensures that a wide range of travelers can benefit from CheapESIM's value-focused data plans globally.

No. An eSIM can be installed only once, and it locks to the first device it is installed on. It cannot be moved to another phone, re-scanned, or reinstalled afterward, and it is non-refundable once installed. Please install your eSIM on the device you plan to keep using. If you are switching devices and need help, contact our support team.

It depends. Croatia is in the European Union (EU), so "Roam Like at Home" applies for EU citizens. However, since Brexit, many UK providers (like O2, Vodafone UK, Three) have reintroduced roaming fees for Croatia. For travelers from the USA, Turkey, or Asia, roaming is definitely not free and is very expensive. A CheapESIM eSIM is the safest way to get guaranteed data at a fixed price without worrying about surprise bills. 

Yes, absolutely. This is the most popular way to see Croatia. Our eSIM connects to top-tier local networks that have excellent coverage on the main islands like Hvar, Korčula, and Brač. You will also have a stable 4G/LTE signal on the Jadrolinija and Kapetan Luka ferries, allowing you to stream or browse while sailing between Split and the islands. 

 This specific plan is valid only within Croatia. Many tourists take day trips to Mostar (Bosnia) or Kotor (Montenegro). Be aware that these countries are NOT in the EU, and your connection will stop the moment you cross the border. If you plan to do a Balkan tour, we highly recommend our Europe Regional eSIM, which covers Croatia, Bosnia, Montenegro, and Slovenia seamlessly. 

 To ensure the fastest speeds from Zagreb to Dubrovnik, our eSIM connects to Croatia’s premium networks, typically Hrvatski Telekom (HT) or A1 Croatia. These are the best operators in the country, providing extensive 4G and 5G coverage, even in popular tourist spots like Plitvice Lakes National Park.

While many newer models from manufacturers like Apple, Samsung, and Google do support eSIM, it's always best to verify your specific model.
