English
An eSIM for Greece 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.
Greece eSIM on Vodafone and Wind
5GMobile data for a week in Athens or a long summer, sized from 100 MB to 50 GB. Every plan except the 100 MB one counts its days from its first connection in Greece.
The unlimited plan is the day pass we feature for Greece: 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 Greece
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 Greece
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.

Greece eSIM networks: Vodafone and Wind, not Cosmote
Every Greece plan on this page connects to Vodafone and Wind, and the catalog marks both as 5G on each plan, the day pass included. Cosmote isn't on them. In Greece it appears only on the 31-country Europe eSIM rows: 10, 20, or 50 GB for 31 days, with an exit in the Netherlands. Those three count their days from installation and can't be topped up.
The Greece plans themselves exit via France, the Netherlands, or the UK, so the address a site sees sits in one of those three, not in Greece.
From a 100 MB week to 50 GB over 180 days
- 7 days: 100 MB, 500 MB, or 1 GB
- 15 days: 2 GB or 3 GB
- 30 days: 3, 5, 10, 20, or 50 GB
- 180 days: 50 GB
- Day pass: 1 GB daily at full speed, then 512 Kbps
The 100 MB week's 7 days start at installation, so install it close to the day you need it. The other plans wait for their first connection in Greece, which lets you set them up before your trip.
50 GB comes in two lengths, 30 days or 180 days. Every plan can be topped up on the same eSIM, but a top-up adds data, not days, so choose the term first.
Greece with Albania, Cyprus, or Turkey
A Greece plan names Greece alone. For a wider route, the country lists decide:
- Albania, North Macedonia, Bulgaria: all on the Balkans eSIM with Greece. It uses Vodafone and Wind here too, but exits in the UK or Norway, and its day pass drops to 384 Kbps. Albania isn't named on any Europe list.
- Cyprus: not on the Balkans list, but on every Europe list. The 35-country rows keep Vodafone, Wind, and the same exit as the Greece plans.
- Turkey: not on the Balkans list either. Among the Europe lists, only the 34-country list and the two 41-country lists name it.
- All of them: Global 130 names every country above, with Vodafone and Wind here.
Questions about an eSIM for Greece
Should I install the 100 MB plan early?
Only if you'll use it soon. Its 7 days begin at installation, wherever you are at the time. To set up well ahead, take the 500 MB week: it starts at its first connection in Greece.
Is the Greece day pass unlimited?
Not at full speed. You get 1 GB a day at full speed, and after that the connection stays at 512 Kbps until the day resets.
How far ahead can I buy a Greece plan?
An unused plan stays valid for 180 days. The refund window is shorter: you can ask for a refund within 30 days of purchase while the eSIM hasn't been installed or connected. Once it's installed or used, it isn't refundable, even if your phone turns out to be incompatible.
Does a Greece eSIM come with a Greek phone number?
No. It carries data only, and your own SIM keeps your number for calls and texts. A number is a separate purchase: a rental from virtual numbers.
