I like esimdb and use it for all my esims worldwide, for a long time now. I do wish the navigation would become easier. So in the main overview I want to see details of 1 esim, and not go to the overview of the provider where I need to manually find the esim I saw in the overview.
Also I wish I could filter by provider (which doesn't always match the provider that you actually get). Everything else is great!

Airgun shows it will have A1 as provider but it is Yettel.

Marcoused in Bulgaria 🇧🇬

The app offers no coverage in Bulgaria. There's no support available from the app. I would not recommend this provider.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many travel eSIM brands (providers) are available for use in Bulgaria, and how many prepaid data plans are there?

Bulgaria offers more than 110 providers and over 6500 prepaid data plans, giving travelers a wide variety of options to find an eSIM that suits their needs.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Bulgaria?

Yes, there are a number of eSIM providers that offer unlimited data plans for travelers in Bulgaria.
Firsty offers a one‑day unlimited plan priced at zero dollars, though the speed is capped at 256 kbps and the connection may be throttled.
Yoho Mobile, Roamify, MicroEsim, Billion Connect, abesteSIM, Truely, Yesim, and FairPlay all provide unlimited data packages ranging in validity from one to fifteen days. These plans generally allow tethering, but speed may be limited to a maximum of 5 Mbps or subject to throttling by the carrier.

The price points for these unlimited plans cover a range from as low as $0.00 to approximately $28.00, giving travelers a variety of budget options while still ensuring unlimited data availability.

What are the major mobile networks available for a travel eSIM in Bulgaria?

In Bulgaria, the primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) are:

A1 Bulgaria: A subsidiary of the A1 Group, offering comprehensive mobile services, including voice, data, and messaging, with extensive 4G and 5G network coverage.
Vivacom: Part of the United Group, providing a wide range of mobile services and notable for launching Bulgaria's first 5G network in September 2020.
Yettel Bulgaria: Formerly known as Telenor Bulgaria, now owned by e& PPF Telecom Group, offering diverse mobile services with significant network coverage.

These MNOs own and operate the primary mobile network infrastructure in Bulgaria. While there are Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) in the country, they provide services by leasing access from these major carriers. Most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of the MNOs rather than MVNOs.

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

Travel eSIM plans that include a phone number and SMS service are available for use in Bulgaria. Providers that offer such plans include GlobaleSIM, Roamify, SimOptions, and MoreMins eSIM. These plans give users inbound and outbound voice and SMS capabilities, but the phone numbers are not local Bulgarian numbers; they use foreign dialing codes such as +1 (United States/Canada), +33 (France), +420 (Czech Republic) and +44 (United Kingdom). Plan validity ranges from seven days to up to six months, while prices start around $4.00 USD and extend to about $50.00 USD for larger data bundles.

If a local Bulgarian number is required, travelers must look for different providers, as the options above supply foreign numbers. Nonetheless, the foreign numbers can be used for calls and texts while connected to Bulgarian networks and are compatible with local data coverage.
