Nomad does not offer eSIM plans for Russia that include a phone number or the ability to send or receive SMS. Travelers who purchase a Nomad eSIM for Russia can only use the data allowance for internet access; there is no built‑in voice or text messaging capability backed by a Russian phone number.
For those needing voice or messaging services, popular VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage can be used over the data connection, provided the service is not blocked or restricted in Russia. Travelers should confirm that the apps they rely on are accessible in the destination before choosing a plan.
