nextSIM eSIM Data Plans for Balkans countries

nextSIM does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM for the Balkans. All plans marketed as “Unlimited” actually include a fixed data allowance of either 1GB or 2GB, after which the connection speed drops to 512kbps or 2000kbps.

For travelers who want more predictable usage, nextSIM offers fixed‑data options such as the 1GB/eSIM Unlimited Standard 1 Day Balkans plan for $12.70, the 2GB/eSIM Unlimited Plus 1 Day Balkans plan for $30.49, and larger‑volume plans like the eSIM GLOBAL 50GB for 365 days at $126.86. Choosing a fixed‑data plan can be more cost‑effective unless a user requires constant high‑speed data without any limits.

nextSIM does not provide a Balkans eSIM that includes a phone number or SMS capability. Only data‑only plans are available for this region.

Users can still communicate locally by using VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection, which allow voice calls and messaging without a traditional phone number.

All eight Balkan states that are listed on eSIMDB—Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia and Kosovo—are covered by nextSIM’s eSIM plans. Plans that include every one of these markets include the eSIM EUROPE Premium, eSIM GLOBAL Premium and eSIM GLOBAL Economy, while the eSIM Unlimited Standard Balkans and eSIM Unlimited Plus Global also cover each of the first seven states but do not list Kosovo as part of the Balkan coverage area; the absence of Kosovo in those specific plans does not affect the overall coverage available across all nextSIM offers.
