Nomad eSIM Data Plans for Australia

Nomad’s eSIM plans for Australia do not provide a truly unlimited data option. Every plan listed in the catalogue has a specific data cap, either a per‑day limit such as 2 GB/day for the Local Australia – 3‑Day and 5‑Day plans, or a total cap such as 37.5 GB for the Regional APAC – 5‑Day plan and 75 GB for the Regional APAC – 10‑Day plan. The plans are marked with “unlimited” in the name, but they are not high‑speed data without limits; after the quota is reached, the connection may be throttled.

Fixed‑data plans are available as alternatives. For example, the Local Australia – 10‑Day – unlimited plan gives 2 GB/day with a 10‑day validity, and the 30‑Day – 50 GB plan provides a 50 GB allowance. While these options are not unlimited, they can be cost‑effective for most travelers.

Nomad does not provide an Australia eSIM that includes a local phone number or SMS capability. The provider only offers data‑only plans for this destination. Travelers who need voice or messaging can use VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram or iMessage over the data connection instead.

Nomad provides 10 single‑country data plans that include Australia and 32 multi‑country plans that cover the country. The available options span a price range from about $5.50 to $170, with data caps varying between 1 GB and 75 GB. Some plans feature a fixed data allowance, while others offer a daily data cap, and a number of plans allow tethering.
