“The eSIM Europe Unlimited Data didn’t work in Serbia — while it worked fine in other EU countries (Switzerland, Austria, and Germany).

I opened a ticket a week ago and still haven’t received any help.

Avoid this company’s SIMs. If they fail, good luck getting help — you’ll end up buying a new one somewhere else.”

“Next I'd think twice before I use the cheapest option. I activated my SIM but wasn't able to use it. I tried everything that came to my mind for 2-3 hours and couldn't make it work.
The support couldn't provide me with a solution either, so I was without data all day. At the end of my trip, on my way back to Bulgaria, I gave it another try, just before I crossed the border, and it suddenly worked.
I got a message from the support on the next day with a suggestion and a possible solution, but it was too late, 'cause I was in Serbia only for a few hours and that's when I needed my data.
I'm definitely not happy with the experience.”

Serbia Travel eSIM FAQ

Everything you need to know about using eSIMs in Serbia

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

Serbia offers around 180 eSIM providers and about 9, 000 prepaid data plans, giving travelers a wide variety of options to find an eSIM that suits their needs.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Serbia?

Unlimited‑data eSIM options are available for travelers heading to Serbia. The providers that currently list such plans include abesteSIM, Yesim, Roamify, MicroEsim, Earth Esim, Truely, Ohayu, Wiiline, FairPlay, and MTX Connect. Most of these plans allow tethering, but network speed may be throttled after initial data usage and several offer explicit speed limits—for example, Earth Esim caps data at 5 Mbps or 10 Mbps, Ohayu limits speed to 1 Mbps, and Wiiline restricts speed to 5 Mbps or even reduces it to 512 kbps in certain circumstances. The cost of an unlimited‑data plan ranges broadly from roughly $3.25 USD to about $72.75 USD, depending on the provider, validity period, and any additional features such as 5G coverage.

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

Telekom Srbija: "The largest telecommunications operator in Serbia, offering extensive mobile coverage and services."
Telenor Serbia: "A major mobile network provider known for its wide-reaching network and customer-focused services."
A1 Serbia: "A prominent telecommunications company providing comprehensive mobile services across the country."

In Serbia, Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) offer mobile services by leasing access from major carriers. One example is Globaltel, a local MVNO. However, most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of the primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) rather than MVNOs.

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

Travel eSIM plans that include a phone number and SMS service are available for Serbia from several providers. Providers that offer such plans include GlobaleSIM, Airhub, RedEx eSIM, eSIMX, Simbye, and Orange Travel. These plans provide inbound and outbound voice calls, and most also support inbound and outbound SMS messaging.

The telephony details vary by provider. GlobaleSIM uses a +1 dialing code and offers inbound and outbound voice with inbound SMS only; the number is therefore not local to Serbia. Airhub and RedEx eSIM use the local Serbia dialing code +381 and provide full inbound and outbound voice as well as SMS, giving travellers a local Serbian number. eSIMX, Simbye and Orange Travel use foreign dialing codes (+376 and +33) and provide inbound and outbound voice and SMS, but the numbers are not local to Serbia. Prices for these plans start around $4.50 USD for a 1GB 7‑day data plan and increase with larger data caps and longer validity periods.
