You do not get a new phone number with this eSIM.
Setting up your eSIM? The installation and activation guide walks through it step by step, and the full FAQ covers device compatibility, hotspot, dual SIM and topping up.
Install your Portugal eSIM before you fly with one tap on your phone, then simply turn off airplane mode after you land. You are connected straight away at Lisbon, Porto or Faro, with no plastic SIM to swap and no phone shop to find before your transfer into town.
The one plan covers the whole country, so the same eSIM works whether you are starting in Lisbon, road-tripping the Algarve, or tasting your way up the Douro Valley.
Set the eSIM up at home and it connects automatically when you switch off airplane mode at Lisbon (LIS), Porto (OPO) or Faro (FAO). You are online for the Aerobus, the metro or a Bolt ride into the centre the second you arrive, with maps and translation ready before you reach the taxi rank.
Portugal runs on three networks - MEO, NOS and Vodafone - with fast 4G/LTE nationwide and 5G across Lisbon, Porto and the larger towns. That is plenty for live maps, restaurant bookings, the CP train app and video calls home.
Coverage holds up well along the Algarve coast and the main tourist routes; only deep-rural corners of the Alentejo interior thin out, as they would on any network. A few GB covers a city break of maps and messaging - size up if you plan to stream or tether a laptop.
Heading to the islands? The eSIM works on Madeira and across the main Azorean islands, covering Funchal, Ponta Delgada and the popular hiking and whale-watching spots. Coverage is strongest in and around the towns, so download offline maps before heading into the more remote levada trails or crater hikes.
Yes. The Portugal plan covers Madeira and the main Azorean islands as well as the mainland, so the same eSIM works if your trip combines Lisbon or Porto with an island stay. Coverage is best in and near the towns.
Yes - you will have data across the Lisbon Metro and on Comboios de Portugal (CP) routes between the main cities, so the live transit and timetable apps work on the move. Signal can briefly drop in long tunnels, as with any mobile network.
Coverage is strong along the Algarve coast and the main routes. Very remote parts of the Alentejo interior can be patchy, so download offline maps if you are heading well off the beaten track.
