Good to know
Install before you fly
Install it at home on Wi-Fi. It stays off until you switch it on for data at your destination.
Keep your own SIM
Your usual SIM stays in for calls and texts. Set the Veela eSIM as your line for mobile data.
Help when you're there
The assistant answers in your language at any hour, and a person picks up anything it can't fix.
Tips for Italy
- Museum and train tickets (Trenitalia, Italo) are easiest on your phone; keep data for check-in.
- In Venice and on Amalfi Coast ferries, signal can drop; download tickets in advance.
- Combining Italy with France or Switzerland? The Europe plan covers them on one eSIM.
Italy eSIM questions
Does it work in Sicily and Sardinia?
Yes, the islands are covered, with weaker signal in remote inland areas.
Does it cover San Marino and the Vatican?
They are separate states served by Italian networks nearby; coverage usually continues, but it isn't guaranteed by the Italy plan.
When does the plan start?
When the eSIM first connects to a network in Italy. Installing it at home doesn't start the clock.
Is my phone compatible?
Dial *#06#. If you see an EID number and your phone is unlocked, it works. See the compatibility checker for common models.
Can I top up?
Yes. From your account, add data to the same eSIM without reinstalling it.
