See what travelers are saying about their Russia eSIM experience. Real feedback from real users to help you pick the best plan for your trip.

“Switched to Roamify unlimited (with discountcode working) for a few days in Russia and had very good speed and service. I think to remember that there was a 10GB calendar day limit of high speed data after which the speed was throttled but still at a very useful 5-6mbit/s. Experience from aug 2025, so before the 24h block when entering the country limitation.”

“I have bought 20 GB İnternet.
But not coming e mail to connect
”

“Awful. I don't know the reason but in 2 days the SIM just refused to connect to the network. After a week it connected again and worked fine for another 3 days but now it won't connect again. Awful experience, never experienced it with any other SIM card. Support is useless, and keeps asking the same questions over and over. I've purchased a SIM from another provider, and it's working fine.”

“They took my money and I didn't get the SIM card or the code.”

“Very stupid support who don't want to help and their sim is not worked.”

“I took it on a trip from two different operators. From 3h did not work in Georgia. Globalesim worked without problems in Russia, Armenia, Turkey, Georgia.”
Everything you need to know about using eSIMs in Russia
There are more than two hundred travel eSIM providers and more than eight thousand four hundred prepaid data plans available for use in Russia. The extensive selection makes it simple for travelers to locate a plan that meets their data needs, device compatibility, and budget.
Unlimited data eSIM options are available in Russia from several providers. ASIMGO, Yesim, Roamify, EtravelSIM, Simvito, eSIMX and FairPlay all offer unlimited data plans valid for 1 to 30 days, with prices ranging from about $3 to $73. Most plans note that speed may be throttled; ASIMGO limits speed to 5 Mbps, while the other providers allow higher speeds but may reduce them after heavy use. These plans generally provide sufficient bandwidth for browsing, streaming and messaging, so you can select a price that matches your budget and data needs.
In Russia, the primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) are:
MTS (Mobile TeleSystems): One of the largest mobile operators in Russia, offering extensive coverage and a wide range of services.
MegaFon: A major telecommunications provider known for its comprehensive network and diverse service offerings.
Beeline (PJSC VimpelCom): A significant player in the Russian mobile market, providing various mobile services across the country.
Tele2 Russia (Rostelecom): A competitive operator offering mobile services with a growing customer base.
In addition to these MNOs, Russia hosts several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs). MVNOs provide mobile services by leasing access from major carriers. Notable examples include Yota, SberMobile, and Tinkoff Mobile. However, most travel eSIMs rely on MNO infrastructure rather than MVNOs.
Travel eSIMs that come with a phone number and SMS support are available for Russia, primarily from GlobaleSIM. These plans feature a phone number with the foreign dialing code +1, allow inbound and outbound voice calls, and support inbound SMS (outbound SMS is not included). Prices start at about $6 for a 1 GB 7‑day plan and rise to roughly $45 for a 20 GB 30‑day plan, with validity ranging from one week to a month.
Other providers such as Roamify, RedEx eSIM, EtravelSIM, lineCast Networks, Simbye, eSIMX and similar offer travel eSIMs that also include a phone number and full SMS capability, typically with dialing codes +33 or +355. These numbers are not local Russian numbers but can be used in Russia through data connections, although outbound SMS is also not always supported. Travelers should check whether the specific plan’s outbound SMS feature meets their needs before purchase.
