Nomad eSIM Data Plans for France

Nomad does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM for France; every plan listed has a fixed data allowance. Plans that carry the word “unlimited” in the title offer a daily limit of 2GB for local France or a total cap of 37.5GB or 75GB for broader European coverage, after which traffic may be throttled to a reduced speed, although the exact throttled rate is not disclosed.

Instead, travellers can select high‑data fixed plans. For instance, Nomad’s Local France – 30 Days – 50 GB plan costs $35 and gives 50 GB of high‑speed data valid for 30 days, while the Regional Europe – 30 Days – 50 GB plan is $29 and provides the same data volume across France and 34 other countries. These options offer more data than the lower‑cap “unlimited”‑named plans and may be more economical for heavy data users.

Nomad does not provide any France eSIM plans that include a local phone number or SMS capability. All of the France plans from Nomad are data‑only, meaning they only offer internet access.

Travelers can still use voice and messaging services over the data connection with popular VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage, which work without a phone number or SMS support.

Nomad offers 10 single‑country plans that cover France and an additional 26 multi‑country plans that include France. The plans have prices ranging from 4.00 to 170.00 USD, data caps between 1 GB and 75 GB, and validity periods from 3 to 365 days. Nomad provides both fixed data cap plans, which grant a set amount of data for the full validity period, and daily data cap plans, which allow a specified amount of data each day.
