What it does

What can you do with your Germany eSIM?

A travel eSIM is built for mobile data. You browse and stream like at home, but regular calls and texts work differently than with a normal SIM card.

  • Use mobile data

    Yes

    Your Germany eSIM handles all internet on your phone.

  • Use WhatsApp

    Yes

    Your existing WhatsApp account and number keep working.

  • Call via WhatsApp or FaceTime

    Yes

    These calls run over mobile data, so your Germany eSIM is enough.

  • Keep your own phone number

    Yes

    Your regular SIM card stays active alongside the eSIM.

  • Standard calls and SMS

    Via your own SIM

    Most travel eSIMs are data-only. Regular calls and texts run on your normal SIM.

  • Use as personal hotspot

    Depends on bundle

    Hotspot support varies per bundle and provider. Check the details of the bundle you choose.

Want to stay reachable on your own number? Keep your regular SIM active and use the Germany eSIM only for mobile data.

Why an eSIM is useful in Germany

Germany relies on data for navigation, trains, parking apps and work on the road.

An eSIM is often cheaper than EU roaming from non-EU carriers and easy to set up before you go.

Coverage in Germany

Coverage is excellent in cities and along major transport routes. Rural forests or valleys may occasionally be weaker.

  • Strong 4G/5G in urban areas.
  • Handy for Deutsche Bahn apps and motorway navigation.
  • Install at home; activate when needed.

Coverage depends on location, device and network partner.
