Mi eSIM eSIM Data Plans for Costa Rica

Mi eSIM does not provide a true unlimited data plan for Costa Rica. The plans that carry the word “Unlimited” in their name give only 1 GB of high‑speed data per day and throttle the speed to 500 kbps (or 512 kbps for Latin America) once that daily quota is reached. For travelers who need more data, Mi eSIM offers fixed data plans such as the 50 GB eSIM Data for 30 days (30 days, 50 GB) or the 20 GB eSIM Data for 30 days (30 days, 20 GB). These bundled plans can be more cost‑effective for heavy‑usage users.

Mi eSIM does not offer any eSIM plans with a local phone number or SMS capability for Costa Rica. Travelers who need calling or texting will need to rely on data‑only plans combined with VoIP services such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage. Because access to these apps can vary by country, users should confirm that the messaging services they plan to use work in Costa Rica before purchasing a data‑only eSIM.

Mi eSIM provides 14 single‑country data plans that include Costa Rica and 20 multistatus coverage plans that cover Costa Rica along with other destinations. The plans vary in price from about $4.59 to $174.87 USD and in data cap from 1 GB up to 50 GB, with validity ranging from 1 to 31 days.

For single‑country plans, most are fixed‑data, offering a set amount of data that can be used over the chosen validity period. Some multi‑country plans are daily data‑cap plans, which reset each day and provide a new data allowance according to the chosen amount. Both types may allow tethering and may include reduced speeds (500 kbps or 512 kbps) for certain data thresholds or usage patterns.
