Ireland eSIM questions
How much does the Ireland eSIM cost?
Data plans start at $3.95 for 1GB over 7 days, and 10GB for 30 days is $12.95. Prices are in AUD, with no roaming charges on top.
How much data do I need in Ireland?
Most travellers use about 1GB a day with maps, messaging and some social media, so 10GB ($12.95) covers a week. Just maps and messages? 3GB ($6.95) is enough for a week. See how much data each app uses.
Which networks does the Ireland eSIM use?
It runs on Eir. You get 5G where the network has it, if your phone supports 5G, and 4G everywhere else.
Does it work in Northern Ireland?
No. Belfast and the Giant's Causeway are in the UK, and this eSIM is the Republic of Ireland only. The Europe eSIM covers both.
Does it work on the Wild Atlantic Way?
Mostly. The Cliffs of Moher, Galway and the Ring of Kerry have good signal. Parts of Connemara and Donegal are patchy.
Is one network enough in Ireland?
Yes. Eir covers the whole country, with 5G in Dublin, Cork, Galway and other towns.
Can I use it in London or the rest of Europe?
No, it's Ireland only. The UK has its own eSIM, and the Europe eSIM covers Ireland, the UK and 37 more countries.
When does my Ireland plan start?
When the eSIM first connects to a network in Ireland. Install it on Wi-Fi a day or two before you fly: the days don't start counting until you land.
Can I use the Ireland eSIM as a hotspot?
Yes. Every Ireland plan can share its data with a laptop, a tablet or a travel partner's phone. Anything you share comes off the same plan.
Does the Ireland eSIM include calls and texts?
No, it's data only, with no local number. Call and text over WhatsApp, iMessage or FaceTime. Your Australian number stays on your phone, so texts like bank codes still arrive.
