“Hi.

according to the product description, the O2 Slovakia 5G and Telekom 5G networks should work, but only Telekom 5G works and o2 only 4G. With unlimited Internet in the Europe package, they limit the speed to 10 Mbit”

Slovakia Travel eSIM FAQ

Everything you need to know about using eSIMs in Slovakia

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

There are more than 170 travel eSIM providers and over 11, 900 prepaid data plans available for Slovakia, giving travelers a wide variety of options that makes it easy to find an eSIM that suits their needs.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Slovakia?

Several eSIM providers offer unlimited data plans for Slovakia. The available providers are Roamify, MicroEsim, Yesim, Earth Esim, EtravelSIM, Truely, Ohayu and FairPlay. All plans advertise unlimited data usage, but speed may be throttled or limited to a certain maximum (for example, 1 Mbps, 5 Mbps or 10 Mbps) after sufficient traffic or during peak periods. The price range for these unlimited plans varies from about $2.49 to $36.00 USD, depending on the provider and the validity period. Travelers should review the specific terms and network coverage of each offer to ensure it meets their data needs and usage patterns.

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

In Slovakia, the primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) are:

Orange Slovensko: A subsidiary of Orange S.A., offering extensive mobile services and covering 99% of the population.
Slovak Telekom: Part of the Deutsche Telekom Group, providing a wide range of mobile services with substantial market presence.
O2 Slovakia: Operated by O2 Czech Republic, offering various mobile services and covering 97.6% of the population with 4G and 84.9% with 5G as of 2024.
4ka (SWAN Mobile): A newer entrant focusing on budget-friendly mobile services, covering around 95% of the population with 4G and 25% with 5G as of 2024.

In addition to these MNOs, Slovakia hosts several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs), such as Tesco Mobile, which operates on the O2 network. MVNOs provide mobile services by leasing access from major carriers. However, most travel eSIMs rely on MNO infrastructure rather than MVNOs.

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

Yes, travel eSIM plans that include a phone number and SMS support are available for Slovakia. Providers such as Airhub, Orange Travel, and RedEx eSIM offer plans with inbound and outbound voice and SMS. Some plans give a local Slovakian number (dialing code +421) – for example, Airhub and RedEx – while others use numbers from other countries, such as the US code +1 on several GlobaleSIM plans or the Polish code +48 on Orange Travel. Prices for Slovakian‑focused plans typically start around $19.99 for a 7‑day period and can go up to about $35.00 for a 30‑day period, with data allowances ranging from 1GB to 50GB and validity periods from 7 to 30 days.

If having a true local Slovakian number is important, Airhub and RedEx eSIM are the most suitable options because they provide a +421 number, while Orange Travel offers a Polish‑number plan with +48. All listed plans support inbound and outbound voice calls and SMS, though the availability of inbound voice may vary by provider. Travelers should confirm that the desired services are active for their specific usage and be aware that some destinations may restrict VoIP applications, so checking app accessibility in Slovakia before purchasing is advisable.
