Questions
What is the best eSIM for Ukraine?
For most trips, 5 GB for 30 days is enough: $4.29 here, against $11.00 at Airalo for the same data (read 31 Oct 2026). It is data only and needs no app: the QR code and a one-tap install link arrive by email. For heavy use there is also a Day Pass: 3 GB a day at full speed. Every brand's price for Ukraine, dated and sourced, is on our comparison page.
Is there an unlimited eSIM for Ukraine?
Yes: our Day Pass is unlimited data, 3 GB a day at full speed and then 1 Mbps with no cut-off, and 7 days cost $23.90 here. Other brands' "unlimited" plans for 7 days: Ubigi $19.00 (unlimited, 20 GB at full speed, then 2 Mbps); Airalo $27.50 (unlimited with a daily high-speed allowance); Holafly $27.50 (unlimited) (prices read 30 Oct to 31 Oct 2026). Read each one's terms: "unlimited" often means a daily allowance at full speed.
Which Ukraine eSIM for a month?
Every one of these lasts 30 days: 3 GB $3.39, 5 GB $4.29, 10 GB $7.19, 20 GB $14.29. The 30 days start when the eSIM first connects to a network there, so you can buy before the trip.
Can I buy a Ukraine eSIM without an app?
Yes. You pay on this page and the QR code and a one-tap install link arrive by email: no app and no account. It is data only, with no phone number, so your home SIM keeps your calls and SMS.
Does the Ukraine eSIM come with a phone number?
No. It is data only: no local number, calls or SMS on this eSIM. Your home SIM stays in the phone for calls and texts (your carrier's roaming rates apply to them), and WhatsApp, FaceTime or Signal calls run over the eSIM's data. If you need a local number in Ukraine, for example for a service that texts a code, buy a local SIM there.
Which Ukraine eSIM for a week or two?
For 7 days: 1 GB $2.39. The 30-day packs cover one or two weeks too: 3 GB $3.39, 5 GB $4.29. Day Pass, 3 GB a day at full speed and then 1 Mbps: 7 days $23.90, 14 days $41.90.

Is a Ukraine eSIM cheaper than roaming?
Usually, for a trip of more than a day or two. US carriers charge $12 a day for roaming (AT&T International Day Pass, Verizon TravelPass, read 31 Oct 2026) where they cover Ukraine, so a week costs $84. Here 5 GB for 30 days is $4.29 in total.
