An eSIM is a digital SIM card. You install it on your phone before you travel and land abroad with working internet — no hunting for a shop at the airport, and your home SIM stays where it is.
No plan is sold for Iran alone
The plans below are regional or global plans that list this destination. They work there exactly like a single-country plan, but they are sold for several countries at once — which usually makes them dearer for a trip to one.

How we worked out the price in your currency

What do the labels mean?
- Cheapest
- The lowest price among plans that last the whole trip and carry the data you chose.
- Best for browsing
- The best network at your destination, by what providers publish: 5G, number of local networks and hotspot. Not a measurement of real-world coverage.
- Best unlimited
- The lowest-priced plan with no data cap, allowing for when its speed drops.
The commission we earn does not affect any label.

Does eSIM work in Iran?

Which networks are available?
We do not have the network list for this destination. The plans on this page are regional or global, and their providers have not published which local network they use here. We would rather say we do not know than guess.

Frequently asked questions
What is an eSIM?
An eSIM is a digital SIM built into your device. Instead of swapping a physical card, you scan a QR code or install through an app, and the line is added to your phone.
How do I know if my phone supports eSIM?
Most iPhones from XS onwards, and recent Samsung Galaxy S and Google Pixel models, support eSIM. The device also has to be carrier-unlocked. Check with the provider before buying.
When should I install the eSIM?
Most providers recommend installing before you fly, while you have a stable connection. Validity usually starts only when the plan connects to a network at your destination, but this varies by provider.
