Your Serbia eSIM in two questions
Which Serbia eSIM plan do I need?
Pick by how long you stay in Belgrade, Novi Sad or Zlatibor, and how much your phone works for you.
- City break in Belgrade, 3 days: for maps, WhatsApp or Viber and a few videos, the 2 GB for 15 days plan is a good fit.
- Two weeks touring Serbia, 14 days: for standard use across Belgrade, Novi Sad, Niš and Zlatibor, pick 10 GB for 30 days.
- A long stay in Novi Sad, 30 days: for social media, music and some video, 20 GB for 30 days covers it.
- A Balkans trip: Serbia is one of 7 countries covered by the Balkans eSIM, so you can use it on the wider route.
Top up when you need more: most plans can be topped up, and the longest plan runs 30 days.

Will my eSIM have signal in Serbia?
VIP is the network your eSIM joins in Serbia, and it runs 5G. Cities such as Belgrade and Novi Sad, and the main roads, are well covered. Signal can be weaker in remote mountain areas, so save offline maps before you head into the hills.
Your phone picks VIP by itself, so you don't need to choose. Your data reaches the internet through Austria, a normal setup for travel eSIMs; see the IP address help page. Daily plans slow to 512 Kbps once you've used that day's allowance.
How much data do you need in Serbia?
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).

Can I top up my Serbia eSIM?
Yes. Most Serbia 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?
Serbia plans route your data through Austria, a normal setup for travel eSIMs. Websites and apps may show that country's content; your speed and coverage in Serbia 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.
Does WhatsApp work with an eSIM in Serbia?
Yes. WhatsApp and Viber both run on your eSIM in Serbia, so you can send messages, voice notes and photos to family and friends back home, with no local SIM needed.
Is there 5G in Serbia on an eSIM?
Yes. Your eSIM uses the VIP network in Serbia, and VIP offers 5G. If your phone supports 5G, it can use it with your eSIM, so check that 5G is turned on in your phone's settings.
Which eSIM covers Serbia and the Balkans?
Serbia is part of the Balkans bundle, which covers 7 countries, so one eSIM can cover a trip through the region. Serbia is also in the Europe bundle, which covers 41 countries.
Can I use my eSIM as a hotspot or stream video in Serbia?
Yes, but video and hotspot use the most data. Heavy use, with streaming and hotspot, is about 1.8 GB a day, so a plan with a 3 GB a day allowance gives you room to watch and share.

Not much. Maps, messages and email are light use, at about 0.25 GB a day, so a small plan goes a long way for getting around Belgrade.
