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.

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?

Yes, several travel eSIM providers offer plans that include a phone number and support for voice and SMS while you are in Bulgaria. GlobaleSIM, Roamify, SimOptions, MoreMins eSIM, TravelKon and LinkeSIM all have options that deliver a phone number, inbound and outbound voice calls, and inbound and/or outbound SMS. The telephone numbers are not local Bulgarian numbers because the dialing codes used in these plans are +1 (United States) or +33 (France) or other foreign codes, rather than the +359 code used for Bulgaria. Prices for these plans begin at about $4 for a 1 GB 7‑day package and can go up to roughly $120 for a 500 GB 90‑day subscription, with validity periods ranging from a few days to 90 days.
