## Networks

- Paraguay: Claro (3G)

## Which Paraguay eSIM plan do I need?

Match your trip length and how you'll use your phone to one of these four.

- **A long weekend in Asunción:** 1 GB a day for 3 days suits maps, messages and a few rides.
- **A fortnight touring Paraguay:** Pick 10 GB for 30 days, and add the [South America bundle](/esim/south-america) if your route crosses into a neighbouring country.
- **A week-long business trip:** 5 GB for 30 days suits email, messages and maps through a busy week.
- **A month-long stay in Encarnación or Ciudad del Este:** 20 GB for 30 days gives you plenty for messages, maps and rides every day.

Most plans can be topped up, so you can add more data later if you need it.

## Will my eSIM have signal in Paraguay?

Your eSIM joins Claro, the one network it uses in Paraguay, so there's nothing to choose. Claro runs on 3G here and there is no 5G, so expect 3G speeds, which handle messages and maps well. Your phone picks Claro up by itself, with no settings to change.

Your data reaches the internet through Belgium, a normal setup for travel eSIMs. Read more on the [IP address help page](/help/ip-address-another-country).

Daily plans slow to the fair-use speed once the day's allowance is used up, so keep an eye on heavy days.

## Using your phone in Paraguay: data tips

- **Land at ASU:** At Silvio Pettirossi (ASU), switch your eSIM on once you land and turn on data roaming for the eSIM line. The [data roaming steps](/help/turn-on-data-roaming) take a minute, so read them before you fly.
- **Get a ride:** Uber and inDrive are the ride apps to download at home on Wi-Fi, so a ride is a tap away when you land.
- **Stay in touch:** WhatsApp is the messaging app to have ready before you arrive. Your home number stays on for calls and texts, and [here's how to keep WhatsApp and your home number working together](/help/keep-whatsapp-and-home-number).
- **On the network:** Your eSIM runs on Claro, which uses 3G in Paraguay. Save big downloads, such as offline maps and films, for hotel or café Wi-Fi, and keep your data for messages and directions.

## Questions

### How much is an eSIM for Paraguay?

Paraguay eSIMs start at £3.99 for 100 MB over 7 days. A 5 GB plan for 30 days costs £16.99. Prices include any taxes and show in pounds, euros or dollars.

### Which networks does the Paraguay eSIM use?

Your eSIM connects to Claro in Paraguay. Your phone picks the strongest signal automatically.

### When does my Paraguay eSIM start?

Most plans start the moment your eSIM first connects to a network in Paraguay, so you can buy and install it at home before you fly. Install it within 180 days of buying.

### Can I top up my Paraguay eSIM?

Yes. Most Paraguay plans can be topped up from your eSIM page in two taps, with no new QR code. The plan table on this page shows which ones.

### Why does my IP address show another country?

Paraguay plans route your data through Belgium, a normal setup for travel eSIMs. Websites and apps may show that country's content; your speed and coverage in Paraguay are not affected.

### Does it come with a phone number?

Every eSIMology plan is data only. Keep your own SIM switched on for calls and texts, and use WhatsApp, FaceTime or any calling app over your eSIM's data.

### What if my plans change?

Cancel an eSIM you haven't installed within 30 days for a full refund to your card, in two taps from your eSIM page.

### Can I use Uber or inDrive in Paraguay with an eSIM?

Both Uber and inDrive run in Paraguay, and each one needs mobile data to book a car. Have your eSIM switched on before you walk out of Silvio Pettirossi (ASU), and your ride can be booked from the kerb.

### Can I use WhatsApp in Paraguay on an eSIM?

Yes, WhatsApp is the app to use for messages in Paraguay, and it runs on your eSIM's mobile data. Plan a little extra data if you send lots of photos, as they use up your allowance quickly.

### Is there 5G in Paraguay for my eSIM?

No. Paraguay has no 5G, so your eSIM connects on 3G. Save big video downloads and streaming for Wi-Fi where you can, and your data will stretch further.

### Which airport should I land at in Paraguay?

Silvio Pettirossi (ASU) is the airport to aim for. Install your eSIM before you fly, then switch it on once you have landed, so your phone is ready when you reach arrivals.

### Which cities in Paraguay should I plan my route around?

Asunción, Ciudad del Este, Encarnación and San Bernardino are the cities to plan your Paraguay route around. Think about where you will spend most days, then choose a data plan that suits the trip.

### Does the South America eSIM cover Paraguay?

Yes, the South America eSIM covers Paraguay, so one plan can see you through several countries on the same trip. It's a handy pick if your route takes you beyond Paraguay.
