## Networks

## Which Slovakia eSIM plan do I need?

Start with how many days you stay, then choose how much you plan to use your phone.

- **A city break in Bratislava:** 1 GB a day for 3 days covers messages on WhatsApp and Messenger, maps and a ride or two on Bolt or Uber.
- **A fortnight touring:** 10 GB for 30 days covers standard use for two weeks, from Košice to Žilina and back.
- **A month-long stay:** 20 GB for 30 days covers standard use all month, with room for music and some video.
- **A week with a neighbouring country:** 5 GB for 30 days covers standard use. For the wider route, the [31-country Europe eSIM](/esim/europe-31-countries) also covers Slovakia.

Every plan can be topped up, and the longest is 50 GB for 180 days.

## Will my eSIM have signal in Slovakia?

Your eSIM connects to O2 and Orange across Slovakia, and both networks run 5G where it's available. Your phone picks between them by itself, so there's nothing to choose or set up when you land in Bratislava, Košice or Poprad-Tatry.

Towns and main roads are well covered, but signal can drop in remote mountain valleys, so download offline maps before a trek in the High Tatras. Your data reaches the internet through France, the Netherlands or the United Kingdom. That is a normal setup for travel eSIMs, and the [IP address guide](/help/ip-address-another-country) explains more. Daily plans slow to a fair use speed once you've used that day's allowance.

## Using your phone in Slovakia: data tips

- **Arriving:** Touch down at Bratislava (BTS), Košice (KSC) or Poprad-Tatry (TAT), then switch on your eSIM and turn on data roaming for that line. Install it at home on Wi-Fi before you fly, so there's no setup at the airport. [how to turn on data roaming](/help/turn-on-data-roaming)
- **Getting around:** Bolt and Uber are the ride apps to download before you go. With a map open, you can head from Bratislava to the High Tatras, or on to Banská Bystrica or Žilina.
- **Staying in touch:** WhatsApp and Messenger are the messaging apps to set up before you land. Your home number stays on for calls and texts. Check [how to keep WhatsApp and your home number](/help/keep-whatsapp-and-home-number) before you fly.
- **Top up:** Every plan can be topped up from your phone, so if your data runs out sooner than planned, add more without buying a new eSIM.

## Questions

### How much is an eSIM for Slovakia?

Slovakia eSIMs start at £3.99 for 1 GB over 7 days. A 5 GB plan for 30 days costs £5.99. Prices include any taxes and show in pounds, euros or dollars.

### Which networks does the Slovakia eSIM use?

Your eSIM connects to O2 and Orange in Slovakia, with 5G where the network has it. Your phone picks the strongest signal automatically.

### When does my Slovakia eSIM start?

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

### Can I top up my Slovakia eSIM?

Yes. Most Slovakia 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?

Slovakia plans route your data through France, a normal setup for travel eSIMs. Websites and apps may show that country's content; your speed and coverage in Slovakia 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 Bolt or Uber in Slovakia with an eSIM?

Yes. Bolt and Uber are both used in Slovakia, so once your eSIM is on, you can book a ride straight from Bratislava airport (BTS) or Košice (KSC). Both apps need data, so keep your eSIM on while you wait for your car.

### Is there 5G in Slovakia?

Yes. Slovakia has 5G, and your eSIM runs on O2 and Orange. If your phone supports 5G, check its network settings after you land, and see our [phones page](/esim-phones) before you travel.

### Can I use WhatsApp and Messenger in Slovakia?

Yes. WhatsApp and Messenger both run on your eSIM data in Slovakia, so you can message family back home and keep in touch with your group chat.

### Can I buy an eSIM for just a couple of days in Slovakia?

Yes. Slovakia has daily allowances, which start at just one day. A short trip to Bratislava only needs the days you're there, so you're not paying for a month you won't use.

### Can one eSIM cover Slovakia and other European countries?

Yes. Slovakia is included in the Europe bundles, so one eSIM can cover it alongside the other countries in that bundle. Check the [Europe bundles](/esim/europe) to see which countries each one covers.
