Your Greenland eSIM in two questions
Which Greenland eSIM plan do I need?
Start with how long you'll stay, then pick the use that sounds most like your trip, or check how much data you need first.
- A city break in Nuuk: Three days of social media, music and some video? Pick 3 GB for 15 days.
- A fortnight touring Ilulissat, Sisimiut and Tasiilaq: For two weeks of social media, music and some video, go for 10 GB for 30 days.
- A week-long business trip: Maps, messages and email for seven days suit 3 GB for 15 days.
- A month-long stay: Heavy use with streaming included? 2 GB a day for 30 days is built for it.
Most plans can be topped up, and the longest runs for 30 days, so you can add more later if your trip grows.

- Top up the same eSIM any time, no new QR code
Will my eSIM have signal in Greenland?
Your eSIM joins TELE Greenland on 4G, and your phone picks the network up by itself, so there's nothing to set once you land. Signal is found in towns and settlements but not in the wilderness between them, as there are no roads linking most places. If you're heading to Ilulissat or Sisimiut, plan your maps and messages around the towns, and expect quiet stretches between them.
Your data reaches the internet through a United States IP route, which is a normal setup for travel eSIMs. You can read more in IP addresses in another country. Daily plans, like 1 GB a day or 2 GB a day, slow to 512 Kbps once that day's allowance is used up.
How much data do you need in Greenland?
Light: maps, messages, email (about 0.25 GB a day). Standard: plus social, music, some video (about 0.7 GB a day). Heavy: plus streaming, video calls, hotspot (about 1.8 GB a day).

Using your phone in Greenland: data tips
- Arriving: Install your eSIM at home on Wi-Fi, then land at Nuuk (GOH) or Kangerlussuaq (SFJ) and switch it on. Turn on data roaming for the eSIM line, and your phone is set to go.
- Staying in touch: Messenger is the messaging app to have ready before you land. Keep your home number switched on for calls and texts, so people can still reach you the usual way.
- Network: TELE Greenland is the network your eSIM connects to, and it runs on 4G only.
- Your IP address: Your eSIM routes your connection through a United States IP address, which can help when a site or app checks where you are.
- Daily plans: Once a day's allowance is used up, fair use slows your data down, so plan your heavier days around it, especially if you stream.
