Coverage & network in North Macedonia
For North Macedonia, an eSIM is the boring, reliable option — one QR code before departure, the Makedonski Telekom network on arrival, and a bill whose size you already know.
Plans run from $9 for 1 GB over 7 days up to $68.50 for 20 GB over 30 days. Two weeks of navigation, messaging and the occasional video call generally lands around 5 GB.
Where 5G has been rolled out you’ll get it; everywhere else the plan runs on 4G/LTE. Both are far more than maps and messaging need — the difference only shows on large downloads. Tethering is allowed on every North Macedonia plan, so a laptop or a travelling companion can share the connection.
Crossing borders on the same trip? The Europe plan covers 47 destinations on one profile from $7.50. Otherwise there are separate plans for Denmark from $5.50, Estonia from $9 and Finland from $5.50.
How to install it
- 1
Buy in a minute

- 2

- 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.
Travelling beyond North Macedonia?
One Europe plan covers 47 countries from $7.50 — worth it from the third border.
North Macedonia eSIM questions
Which network does the North Macedonia eSIM use?
Makedonski Telekom. It is one of North Macedonia's main mobile networks, so coverage matches what local subscribers get rather than a thin roaming-only footprint.
Will I get 5G in North Macedonia?
Yes, where Makedonski Telekom has deployed it and your phone supports it. Outside those areas the eSIM falls back to 4G/LTE automatically — you won't need to change any setting.
How much data do I actually need for North Macedonia?
Count on 100–200 MB a day if you're mostly using maps and messaging, and 1 GB an hour once video is involved. That puts a long weekend in North Macedonia at 1–3 GB (from $9) and a two-week trip nearer 5–10 GB.
When does my North Macedonia plan start counting down?
When the eSIM first connects to a network in North Macedonia, not when you buy it. Install it at home a day or two before you fly — the 1 GB plan then gives you 7 days from arrival and the larger plans 30 days.
Can I use my North Macedonia eSIM as a hotspot?
Yes. Tethering is enabled on every North Macedonia 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 North Macedonia?
Yes. Nothing is removed from your phone. The North Macedonia 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 North Macedonia eSIM?
No. The plan roams on a partner network, 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 North Macedonia?
You can top up from the same page — buy another North Macedonia plan and it queues behind the current one on the same eSIM profile. There's no need to reinstall anything or scan a second QR code.
I'm also visiting Denmark and Estonia — do I need separate eSIMs?
Not necessarily. The Europe plan covers 47 destinations including North Macedonia on a single profile from $7.50. If North Macedonia is the bulk of the trip, a country plan plus a top-up is usually cheaper; if you're crossing several borders, the regional plan wins.
Will my phone work with a North Macedonia 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.
