English
An eSIM for Puerto Rico 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.
Coverage comes from AT&T, the one network these plans use. Your phone connects to it when you arrive.
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.

What to know about an eSIM for Puerto Rico
The specifics that decide whether a travel eSIM is useful once you're actually there.
Runs on AT&T
Plans for Puerto Rico connect to AT&T. Your phone joins it once data roaming is on for the eSIM.
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

eSIM Puerto Rico: four AT&T plans, all with 5G
The Puerto Rico eSIM plans on this page are fixed: 1 GB for 7 days, 3 GB for 15 days, and 3 GB or 5 GB for 30 days. Each one connects to AT&T and uses 5G where AT&T offers it, 4G or 3G elsewhere. There's no day pass among them.
Traffic exits in Belgium, so sites you open in San Juan see a Belgian IP address, not a US one. Every plan tops up with more data on the same eSIM if the month runs short.
Which network you get depends on the plan
Puerto Rico is also on three multi-country plans, and each one puts you on a different local network:
- This page: AT&T with 5G, exit in Belgium, plans of 7, 15, or 30 days.
- Caribbean eSIM: Liberty, on 4G and 3G only, exit in the UK, with a day pass and up to 10 GB for 30 days.
- Latin America eSIM, 20-country plans: Claro with 5G, exit in the UK or Norway, with a day pass and up to 20 GB for 30 days.
- Global 130: Claro with 5G as well, exit in the UK or Norway, with 20 GB for 90 days or 1 GB for 365 days.
If AT&T is the network your host recommends, buy here.
Puerto Rico with the mainland or the next island
- Mainland US too: the North America eSIM lists Canada, Mexico, and the United States, and Puerto Rico isn't on that list. Pair a USA eSIM with a plan from this page, or use Global 130, which lists both Puerto Rico and the United States.
- The Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Antigua, or Barbados: all of them are on the Caribbean list with Puerto Rico.
- Costa Rica, Panama, or Colombia: the Latin America 20-country plans include them along with Puerto Rico.
Puerto Rico eSIM questions
Does a North America eSIM cover Puerto Rico?
No. The North America plans list Canada, Mexico, and the United States, and Puerto Rico isn't one of them. Use a plan from this page, or Global 130 if the trip includes the mainland.
Is there a day pass for Puerto Rico?
Not on this page. The Caribbean and Latin America day passes both include Puerto Rico: each gives 1 GB a day at full speed, then 512 Kbps on the Caribbean pass (Liberty) or 1 Mbps on the Latin America pass (Claro) until the day resets.
Is 1 GB enough for a week in San Juan?
The 7-day plan's 1 GB covers maps, messages, and light browsing. For video calls or photo uploads, the 3 GB plan for 15 days gives more room.
Can I get a Puerto Rico phone number?
Not from these plans. They add mobile data to your phone and nothing else, so your home number keeps working as before. To get texts on a rented number, look at virtual numbers.
