“The application is good and the coverage depends on chosen supplier. Some suppliers are good, others need to be enhanced. The speed and coverage depends on the service provider and on the country infrastructure. Rate is acceptable.”

“Truly awful 3G speed on strong 5G towers in Amsterdam. I have excellent signal strength on my device, yet somehow my 300GB Europe eSIM from Airhub consistently produces 3Mpbs down and up. This strongly suggests rate limiting. Over several days it's like this with the only advice from Airhub support to restart the device, which does nothing.”

Yoho Mobile Netherlands

“Do not use this provider! I have used several esims but this one is not working, only at very low speeds. Contacted customer support. React very slow and could not resolve. After a lot of complaints agreed to refund. Took 3 weeks to refund. they only processed refund after 3 weeks when complaining again. Do not recommend. Not worth the money. Even 1 star is too much

GLOBAL YO Netherlands

“Totally not recommended!

I fell victim to a scam by Global Yo in October 2024, came here warn others not to make the same mistake. They market the data as "limitless".But it's only 1GB a day that has a decent speed after that drops to about 0.15 Mb/S. Look for the little 'i' when reading the brochure.

Thanks esimdb for recommending it to me!”

“Pretty good experience overall, the internet breakouts mentioned in their data plan are accurate. One issue I encountered was when switching between network it takes a minutes to few minutes to get a connection back.”

Airhub Netherlands

“I bought 10 days unlimited for 30USD. After 1.5 day - no internet.
I sent the message to Support via my e-mail - no reply.
I tried to send the message to Support - via Airhubapp website - but the forms constructed in such way it cannot be submitted. (When I push submit button - nothing happened). After 10 attempts to contact to Support - I gave up.

“Can't name it a full scam but it actually is. I bought an eSIM valid for 365 days. After 180, it has expired from my account. Emailed support, got one reply asking for proof, sent it over, never got an answer although asking for an update 2 times. Filling a chargeback request with my bank.”

Airalo Netherlands

“Mixed. Good in Amsterdam with country-specific eSim.
In Germany, bought regional. In Berlin, Dresden & Cologne struggling to get data and receive messages, regardless of number of bars showing.
Comparing to my wife on Vodafone $5/day roaming, she had no problems with data access.
Moved her also to Airalo in Dresden & was disaster. Both had trouble getting map data, messages via WhatsApp and FB Messenger massively delayed.”

Netherlands Travel eSIM FAQ

Everything you need to know about using eSIMs in Netherlands

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

There are over 140 travel eSIM providers and more than 9, 300 prepaid data plans available for the Netherlands, providing travelers a wide variety of options to choose a plan that fits their needs.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Netherlands?

Several eSIM providers offer unlimited data plans for trips to the Netherlands, including Firsty, Yoho Mobile, abesteSIM, Roamify, MicroEsim, Yesim, Truely, and Orange Travel. All of these packages allow streaming, browsing and tethering, but most impose speed limits; most plans cap speeds at around 5 Mbps, while Firsty’s free offering limits bandwidth to 256 kbps and contains advertisements. Prices vary from a free otherwise limited plan to roughly $23 for a 10‑day unlimited data package, with most providers charging between $2.40 and $22.50 for 1‑to‑10‑day durations. Network coverage is generally 5G compatible, though specific local frequency support may differ by provider.

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

Odido: Formerly known as T-Mobile Netherlands, Odido is the largest mobile network operator in the Netherlands, offering extensive 4G and 5G coverage nationwide.
KPN: As the incumbent telecommunications provider, KPN delivers comprehensive mobile services with robust 4G and expanding 5G networks across the country.
Vodafone: Operating under the VodafoneZiggo joint venture, Vodafone provides widespread mobile coverage and services throughout the Netherlands.

In addition to these major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), the Netherlands hosts several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs). MVNOs offer mobile services by leasing access from major carriers. Examples include Simyo, which operates on KPN's network, and Ben, which utilizes Odido's infrastructure. However, most travel eSIMs rely on MNO infrastructure, not MVNOs.

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

Yes. Several travel eSIM providers offer plans that include a phone number and SMS capability for use while in the Netherlands. The providers that list such plans are GlobaleSIM, Orange Travel, and Roamify. Each plan grants a voice number with inbound and outbound voice, and SMS support—GlobaleSIM’s plans include inbound SMS only while Orange Travel and Roamify provide inbound and outbound SMS. The dialing codes attached to these numbers are +1 for GlobaleSIM and +33 for Orange Travel and Roamify, so the numbers are not local Dutch (+31) numbers.

The plans cover a range of data sizes and validity periods. Prices begin around $4.00 USD for a 1 GB 7‑day plan and increase to about $127 USD for 200 GB 90‑day offerings. Validity ranges from 7 days up to 90 days, giving travelers flexible timeframes for their stay. If a locally‑named Dutch number is required, travelers might need to look for a dedicated local number or consider a data‑only eSIM instead.
