There are approximately 180 travel eSIM providers and more than 12, 700 prepaid data plans available for Norway, offering a wide variety of options that make it easy for travelers to find an eSIM that suits their needs.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Norway?

abesteSIM, Roamify, MicroEsim, Yesim, Earth Esim, EtravelSIM, Truely, Ohayu, FairPlay, and Airhub all provide unlimited data eSIM plans that are valid in Norway. All of these plans allow tethering, but most include a speed throttle, with several models listing explicit speed limits: abesteSIM and MicroEsim limit speed to 10 Mbps, Earth Esim offers packages with 5 Mbps or 10 Mbps limits, and Ohayu caps it at 1 Mbps. Prices for unlimited plans range from as low as $2.39 for a one‑day abesteSIM plan up to $37 for a ten‑day Airhub plan, with most providers offering options between roughly $2.50 and $36.92 depending on the desired validity period. These plans give travelers the flexibility to choose the length and price that best suits their usage, while keeping in mind that actual speeds may be reduced during peak times or after data thresholds.

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

Telenor: Norway's largest telecommunications company, offering extensive nationwide coverage and a comprehensive range of mobile services.
Telia: The second-largest provider in Norway, delivering robust mobile services with significant coverage across the country.
Ice: The third-largest mobile operator, known for competitive pricing and a growing network infrastructure.

In addition to these major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), Norway hosts several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs). MVNOs provide mobile services by leasing access from the major carriers, offering competitive plans on the same infrastructure. Notable Norwegian MVNOs include Talkmore and Chilimobil. However, it's important to note that most travel eSIMs rely on MNO infrastructure, not MVNOs.

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

Yes, travel eSIM plans that include a phone number and SMS for Norway are available. Providers such as GlobaleSIM, Airhub, EtravelSIM and RedEx eSIM offer these services. GlobaleSIM and RedEx eSIM give a local Norwegian number with dialing code +47, support inbound and outbound voice calls, and GlobaleSIM also offers inbound SMS while RedEx eSIM supports inbound and outbound SMS. Airhub likewise uses a +47 number and provides inbound and outbound voice and SMS. EtravelSIM provides a UK number (dialing code +44) that still allows inbound and outbound voice calls and SMS, although it is not a local Norwegian number.

Prices for these plans typically begin around $4 for a 1 GB plan that lasts 7 days, and can go up to about $35 for a 50 GB plan that lasts 30 days. Validity periods range from 7 days to 30 days, with data caps from 1 GB to 50 GB. These options give travelers the ability to receive phone calls and SMS while staying in Norway, whether the number is local or from a foreign dialing code.
