“I feel completely scammed. This provider's services either don’t work at all, or when they do, you can’t even load Google. After reaching out to their support, I only received basic instructions that are only helpful if you set up the eSIM incorrectly – which wasn’t the case, as I set it up properly. When I tried to address the deeper issue, they started ignoring me. In the end, I had to purchase services from another provider just to get a reliable Wi-Fi connection. I definitely cannot recommend this provider to anyone.”

Can I get a travel eSIM with a phone number and SMS for Belarus?

Travel eSIMs that provide a phone number and SMS capability in Belarus are available from several providers. GlobaleSIM offers a range of Belarus‑targeted plans, each giving a +1 phone number that supports inbound and outbound voice calls and inbound SMS; the data balances run from 1GB to 20GB and the plans are priced from about $4 for a 1GB/7‑day option up to $20 for 20GB/30‑day validity. Airhub supplies Belarus‑local numbers with the country code +375, supporting both inbound and outbound voice and SMS; its data packages vary from 6GB to 100GB and are priced between $10 and $69 for a 30‑day period. RedEx eSIM also provides a local +375 number with full voice and SMS support on a 20GB plan priced at $35.89 for 30 days.

When choosing a plan, note that the +375 provisioning gives a truly local Belarus number, which can be useful for business verification, banking, or local communication, while the +1 options from GlobaleSIM and other providers are foreign numbers that still allow calls and SMS but may not be counted as local calls in Belarus. All plans include data connectivity; VoIP services such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage can be used over the data if local mobile apps are blocked or restricted, but users should confirm app availability before purchasing.
