eSIM Turkey: online from day one, without roaming bills
Turkey sits outside EU roaming, so standard roaming data gets expensive fast. Install a Turkey eSIM before you fly and you are connected in Istanbul, Antalya or Bursa as soon as you land.
No local SIM purchase with passport checks, no IMEI registration – everything is done online in minutes.

Why skip standard roaming in Turkey
Because Turkey is not in the EU roaming zone, data is billed at premium rates. A single heavy day of maps and social media can cost more than a full week-long eSIM plan.
How much data to choose
- Long weekend in Istanbul: 1–3 GB.
- A week on the Antalya coast: 3–5 GB alongside hotel WiFi.
- Business trips or longer stays: 10 GB or an unlimited plan.
How to activate your eSIM in 3 steps
Install it at home over WiFi and switch the line on when you land. Data roaming must be enabled on the eSIM line – without it no eSIM will get you online.
- 1. Pick a plan and pay online by card – no shipping, no waiting.
- 2. You receive an installation QR code by email and in your account.
- 3. Scan the QR code, enable the eSIM line and turn on data roaming.
Does my phone support eSIM?
Dial *#06# on your phone. If you see an EID number next to the IMEI, your phone supports eSIM. The phone also must not be carrier-locked.
Supported devices include iPhone XR/XS and newer, Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, plus most recent Huawei, Xiaomi and Motorola models.
