English
An eSIM for Brazil is a digital data plan for the phone you already own. There is no physical SIM card, no airport lines, and no passport needed. Your plan is ready on your SIMAREA account before you even leave home.
It works safely alongside your normal SIM. You keep your own number for calls and important text messages. Your data goes through the SIMAREA plan. Just turn off data roaming on your home SIM to avoid high bills.
Every plan here uses more than one partner network. Your phone joins one when you arrive and can switch to another if the signal weakens.
If you stay longer, top up your current plan with more data. You do not need to buy a new one.
What it is not: a local phone number. If you need a number for verification codes, see virtual numbers.
Brazil eSIM on Claro, TIM and Vivo
5GMobile data for Rio, São Paulo, Salvador or the road to Iguaçu, on three Brazilian networks, with a Brazilian IP on every plan.
The unlimited plan is the day pass we feature for Brazil: after its daily full-speed allowance it keeps you connected at a lower speed, and it is billed per day for the days you choose. Fixed plans are one price for the term shown. Nothing on this page is an estimate.
How to get mobile data in Brazil
Install it at home before you go. Some plans here start counting at installation, so check the line under the price for the plan you pick.
Pick eSIM plan
Choose how long you are there. The day pass is billed per day, so the term is yours to set.
Pay, then scan
Charged from your balance, which you top up with crypto. Your QR code is in your dashboard once the order is paid.
Turn it on when you arrive
Turn on data roaming for your SIMAREA plan when you arrive, and it joins a partner network.
What to know about an eSIM for Brazil
The specifics that decide whether a travel eSIM is useful once you're actually there.
More than one network
Every plan here lists more than one partner network. If one gets weak, your phone can switch to another.
Set up before you go
No SIM card store, no passport check. Install it at home, then turn on data roaming for it when you arrive.
Hotspot sharing
Share your internet with a laptop or a friend, if your plan and phone allow it.
Keep your own number
The eSIM is just for internet. Your normal SIM still receives calls and important bank codes. You can use both at once.
Keep using the same eSIM
Staying longer? Top up the same plan with more data from your dashboard. No need for a new QR code.
If it does not work
Not installed or connected yet? Ask for a refund within 30 days of buying it. Installed but not working on any of its networks? Support helps, and refunds you if it cannot be fixed.
A Brazil eSIM that keeps a Brazilian IP
Every Brazil plan on this page sends its traffic out in Brazil, the day pass included. Sites and apps see a Brazilian IP address, as they would on a local SIM card. That helps with services that change by location, such as a Brazilian bank app, a streaming catalog or a booking site quoting prices in reais.
The multi-country plans that include Brazil don't: the Latin America, Caribbean and Global 130 plans route traffic through the UK or Norway. If the local IP matters, use a Brazil plan for the Brazilian part of the trip.
eSIM in Brazil: three networks, 5G on every plan
Each Brazil plan lists Claro, TIM and Vivo, and all three are marked 5G on every plan. You get 5G where the network has built it, and 4G or 3G elsewhere. If one struggles in a packed Carnival street party, turn off automatic network selection and pick another.
- 7 days: 100 MB (counted from installation), 500 MB or 1 GB.
- 15 days: 2 GB or 3 GB.
- 30 days: 3, 5, 10, 20 or 50 GB.
- Day pass: for as many days as you set, each with 1 GB at full speed and 1 Mbps once that's spent.
Iguaçu Falls: Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay in one trip
The falls sit on a border: Foz do Iguaçu on the Brazilian side, Puerto Iguazú in Argentina, and Ciudad del Este across the river in Paraguay. A Brazil plan stops working once your phone leaves Brazil, so for this corner look at the Latin America eSIM:
- Its 20-country plans and its day pass list Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay, with Claro, TIM and Vivo in Brazil.
- Its 6-country plans list Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Ecuador, Peru and Uruguay, but not Paraguay. They use TIM in Brazil and carry the largest sizes: 30 GB for 30 days and 50 GB for 180 days.
- For Brazil plus another continent, Global 130 lists 127 countries on the same three Brazilian networks.
Just one side trip? Argentina and Paraguay also have their own plans.
Brazil eSIM questions
Does a Brazil eSIM come with a +55 number?
No. It carries data only, with no Brazilian number, calls or SMS, and your own SIM keeps your number. For a number you keep for weeks or months, see the virtual numbers on offer.
Is the Brazil day pass unlimited?
Not at full speed. Each day starts with 1 GB at full speed; past that you stay online at 1 Mbps until the day resets.
Can I install it a week before my flight?
Yes, for every plan except the 100 MB one. The others count their days from the first connection to Claro, TIM or Vivo in Brazil, and an unused plan stays valid for 180 days.
How much data do two weeks in Brazil take?
With hotel Wi-Fi for the heavy use, a 15-day plan of 2 GB or 3 GB covers maps, rides and messages. Sharing with a laptop, if your plan and phone allow it, calls for a 30-day plan of 10 GB or more, or the day pass.
