Why Get an eSIM for Cyprus?
- Online from Larnaca or Paphos Airport, ready for the train, a taxi, or a ride app.
- Digital tickets everywhere. Trains, museums, and city passes are often on your phone.
- Keep your number for bank codes and messages from home.
- Avoid roaming fees if your carrier is outside the EU.
How to Choose a Cyprus eSIM
Trip length
Pick a plan that covers your whole stay plus a spare day for flight times. egoViet plans can't be topped up, so it is better to size up than to run short. If your high-speed data does run out, you stay online at a basic speed of around 128 kbps, enough for messaging.
How much data you use
Maps and messages use little data. Beach videos and streaming use much more. Here is a guide to how much data you need when you travel.
Where you are going
For Cyprus alone, a Cyprus eSIM is the best value. If you are also visiting Greece or other European countries, see the Europe eSIM below.

- Buy your plan. The QR code arrives by email within minutes.

- When you land in Cyprus, switch the eSIM on, set it for mobile data, and turn on data roaming for that line. Keep data roaming off on your home SIM.
Tips for Staying Connected in Cyprus
- Driving is on the left, so give yourself time with live navigation on the first day.
- Check coverage before crossing to the north. Northern Cyprus uses different networks, and your eSIM may not work there.
- Download offline maps for the Troodos Mountains, where signal can be patchy.
- Book beach clubs and boat trips in advance in high season.
- Need to call? egoViet eSIMs are data-only, so use WhatsApp or FaceTime. Here is how calling works with a data-only eSIM.
