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

Sweden's mobile network infrastructure is supported by several major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs):

Telenor: Offers widespread 4G and growing 5G coverage, serving a large customer base across the country.
3 Sweden (Hi3G Access): Focuses on urban areas with robust 4G and developing 5G networks.

In addition to these MNOs, Sweden hosts several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs). MVNOs provide mobile services by leasing access from major carriers. Examples include Hallon, which operates on the 3 network, and Comviq, owned by Tele2. It's important to note that most travel eSIMs rely on MNO infrastructure rather than MVNOs.

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

Yes, a number of travel eSIM providers offer plans that include a phone number and SMS functionality while you are in Sweden. Among the most widely available options are Airhub, EtravelSIM, Esimtofly, GlobaleSIM, Orange Travel, Roamify and other services. These plans support inbound and outbound voice calls and text messaging, and they work over the local cellular networks, including 4G and many 5G connections.

The plans come with dialing codes that may be local (+46 for Airhub and RedEx eSIM) or foreign (+1, +48, +33, +44, etc.). When a plan uses a foreign dialing code, the number will not be a local Swedish number but will still allow you to receive and send calls and texts internationally. Prices typically start around $4 USD for a 7‑day, 1 GB data plan and can extend to over $30 USD for a 30‑day, 20‑30 GB data plan. Validity periods range from 7 days to 365 days, depending on the provider and the specific package chosen.
