EU Roaming: What Nomads Need to Know

The EU's Roam Like at Home regulation means eSIM plans from EU-based providers work across all 27 EU member states at domestic rates. For nomads moving between EU countries, a single regional plan covers all your destinations without additional charges.

Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, and the UK are outside the EU. Many European eSIM plans include these countries, but always verify before crossing into non-EU territory.
