Why Get an eSIM for Armenia?

- Order rides with Yandex Go or GG, popular ride apps in Yerevan.
- Keep your number for bank codes and messages from home.
- Avoid expensive roaming with most home carriers.
How to Choose an Armenia 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. Video calls and uploads use much more. Here is a guide to how much data you need when you travel.
Where you are going
For Armenia alone, an Armenia eSIM is the best value. See the section below if your trip continues to other countries.

Visiting Georgia Too?
Armenia and Georgia are often combined. egoViet's regional plans don't currently include either, so add a Georgia eSIM for that part of your trip. Your phone can store several eSIMs, so you can install both before you go.
Here is how many eSIMs your phone can store.

- When you land in Armenia, 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 Armenia
- Download offline maps for mountain roads to monasteries like Tatev and Noravank.
- Carry some cash for marshrutkas and small shops.
