Coverage & network in Dominican Republic
Land in Dominican Republic, switch the travel line on, and you have data before you reach baggage reclaim. No SIM shop, no roaming surcharge, no swapping out the SIM you already use.
As a rule of thumb: maps and messaging burn 100–200 MB a day, social media roughly 500 MB an hour, and a video call about 1 GB an hour. A light week fits in a small plan; remote work needs a big one.
Coverage in Dominican Republic is 4G/LTE. It handles navigation, messaging, calls over data and streaming without complaint, and it reaches considerably further than any 5G rollout currently does. Tethering is allowed on every Dominican Republic plan, so a laptop or a travelling companion can share the connection.
Crossing borders on the same trip? The Caribbean plan covers much of the region on one profile. Otherwise there are separate plans for Grenada, Guadeloupe and Haiti.
How to install it
- 1
Buy in a minute
Pick a Dominican Republic plan and pay. Your QR code arrives by email within minutes — no account, no shipping.
- 2
Install on Wi-Fi
Scan the code before you fly. The profile sits alongside your normal SIM and stays switched off until you need it.
- 3
Land connected
Turn on data roaming for the TravelNet line when you arrive. The plan starts counting down on that first connection, not at checkout.
Will my phone work?
You need an eSIM-capable, carrier-unlocked phone: an iPhone XS or newer, a Pixel 3 or
newer, or a recent Samsung Galaxy S, Z or A-series flagship. Dial *#06# — if
an EID number is listed alongside the IMEI, the phone has an eSIM.

Dominican Republic eSIM questions
Which network does the Dominican Republic eSIM use?
We don't publish a single operator name for Dominican Republic, because the profile can attach to more than one partner network and picks whichever is strongest where you are. In practice that means you get the best available signal rather than being locked to one operator's weak spots.
Will I get 5G in Dominican Republic?
No. Dominican Republic plans run on 4G/LTE, which is what the networks cover reliably. For maps, messaging, calls over data and streaming the difference is not something you'll notice.
How much data do I actually need for Dominican Republic?
As a rough guide: navigation and messaging burn around 100–200 MB a day, social media roughly 500 MB an hour, and video calls about 1 GB an hour. A short trip fits a small plan; a fortnight of heavier use wants a mid-size one; streaming and remote work push you to the top of the ladder.
When does my Dominican Republic plan start counting down?
When the eSIM first connects to a network in Dominican Republic, not when you buy it. Install it at home a day or two before you fly — the validity period on the plan you choose runs from arrival, not from checkout.
Can I use my Dominican Republic eSIM as a hotspot?
Yes. Tethering is enabled on every Dominican Republic plan, so you can share the connection with a laptop, a tablet or someone travelling with you. Hotspot data comes out of the same allowance.
Can I keep my own phone number while I'm in Dominican Republic?
Yes. Nothing is removed from your phone. The Dominican Republic profile is added as a second line and set as the one used for data, while your usual number keeps receiving calls, texts and bank verification codes. Switch data roaming off on the home line before you fly.
Do I need to register or show a passport to use a Dominican Republic eSIM?
No. The plan roams on partner networks, so there's no local SIM registration, no ID upload and no shop visit. You buy it, scan the QR code, and it works on arrival.
What happens if I run out of data in Dominican Republic?
You can buy another Dominican Republic plan from the same page and install it the same way. Plans marked as top-up capable can also be extended without a new QR code.
I'm also visiting Grenada and Guadeloupe — do I need separate eSIMs?
Not necessarily. The Caribbean plan covers much of the region including Dominican Republic on a single profile. If Dominican Republic is the bulk of the trip, a country plan is usually the better buy; if you're crossing several borders, the regional plan wins.
Will my phone work with a Dominican Republic eSIM?
If it's an iPhone XS or newer, a Pixel 3 or newer, or a recent Samsung Galaxy S, Z or A-series flagship, almost certainly — and it must be carrier-unlocked. Dial *#06# and look for an EID number: if one is listed, the phone has an eSIM. Our compatibility list has the full set.
