Frequently Asked Questions about France eSIM

What is an eSIM?

An eSIM, or embedded Subscriber Identity Module, is a virtual SIM card integrated into devices like smartphones and smartwatches. Unlike physical SIM cards, eSIMs are programmed remotely, enabling easy network switching and activation without needing physical swaps. They offer flexibility for changing carriers and plans, convenient international travel connectivity, and the management of multiple numbers on one device. While not universally supported, eSIM technology reduces the reliance on physical cards and simplifies the user experience by allowing remote provisioning of cellular services.

Which network does the France eSIM use?

Orange, on every plan. You connect directly to Orange's 5G network.

Does the France eSIM come with a French phone number?

Yes, on call plans. All three call plans include a French +33 number, free incoming calls, unlimited calls to EU numbers, and 30 or 120 international minutes. Data-only plans have no phone number.

Is the France eSIM's unlimited data really unlimited?

Unlimited plans include 4 GB of high-speed data per day, then unlimited data at 1 Mbps. High-speed data resets every 24 hours. Hotspot isn't available on Unlimited, so choose a GB plan if you need to share your connection.

Which France eSIM plan should I choose?

Choose Unlimited if you don't want to track your data, a GB plan if you need hotspot, and a call plan if you need a French number or want to call EU numbers.

Should I choose the France eSIM or the Europe eSIM?

Choose the France eSIM if you're only visiting France. It works only in France, and its call plans include a French +33 number. If you're also visiting other countries, choose the Europe eSIM.

Does the France eSIM work in Corsica and the French overseas territories?

Yes. The France eSIM covers mainland France, Corsica and the French overseas territories.

What data plans are available for the France eSIM?

Plans run from 1 GB to Unlimited. Unlimited plans last 7, 10, 15 or 30 days. GB plans last 30 days, except the 30 GB plan, which lasts 7 days.

Am I allowed to use mobile hotspots with unlimited data plans?

Our unlimited data plans are designed for individual use on a single device. Please note that these plans do not support mobile hotspot usage. The unlimited data provided is intended for personal use on your device only. If you require mobile hotspot functionality, we offer separate plans catering to this feature. Please explore our options to find the plan that best suits your needs. Should you have any further questions or require assistance, our customer support team is here to help.

How to activate the eSim?

After purchase, you will receive a QR code by email. Scan it with your phone's camera to install the eSIM on your device. The eSIM activates, and your plan's validity starts, when it first connects to a network at your destination, so you can install it before you travel.

How do I install the eSIM on an iPhone?

Your QR code arrives by email right after purchase. Install it before you travel, while connected to Wi-Fi:

Open Settings → Mobile Service (or Cellular) → Add eSIM.
Tap Use QR Code and scan the QR code from your email. If you can't scan it, tap Enter Details Manually and type the SM-DP+ address and activation code from the same email.
Label the new line (for example "Travel") and keep your home SIM as the primary line for calls and SMS.
When you arrive, choose the travel eSIM for Mobile Data. Turn on Data Roaming for that line if your plan requires it.

How do I check my balance?

Possible troubleshot when installing from public Wi-Fi

Second time using eTravelsim.
I had trouble when trying to install the e-sim while at Charles De Gaulle airport in France. My guess is that the public wi-fi have some kind of restrictions which would not allow downloading and installing the product.
Otherwise, from a private domestic connection, it worked perfectly and instantly.
5G wherever available.

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad the eSIM worked perfectly with a private connection. We’ll keep your insight about public Wi-Fi restrictions in mind for others!

Good

Thank you for your review, Mohammed. We're glad to hear you had a good experience. We'd love to know how we can improve to earn 5 stars!

Excellent as always

Guys, the whole process through the app from searching for countries, selecting data only or calls and data is super easy. Purchase and payment is seamless and the receipt and install works flawlessly. Thank you from a repeat customer.

Thank you Nathan Thomas for your continued trust! We're thrilled to hear the process is seamless and easy. We appreciate your support and look forward to serving you again!

I lied. The number worked.

I submitted a bad review, the number actually worked, but it was hard to tell.

Esim works very well

Esim works very well. However, during the purchase the first transition was stuck, but I was charged for it. I have sent you a separate mail about it

Thank you for the feedback, Tal! We're glad the eSIM worked well for you. We apologize for the issue with the payment and will review your separate email promptly to resolve it.
Warm Regards
