Coverage & network in Northern Cyprus
For Northern Cyprus, an eSIM is the boring, reliable option — one QR code before departure, local partner networks on arrival, and a bill whose size you already know.
Plans run from $8.50 for 1 GB over 7 days up to $64.50 for 20 GB over 30 days. Two weeks of navigation, messaging and the occasional video call generally lands around 5 GB.
Coverage here 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 Northern Cyprus 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 Romania from $4.50, Russia from $9.50 and Serbia from $4.50.

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 Northern Cyprus?
One Europe plan covers 47 countries from $7.50 — worth it from the third border.
Northern Cyprus eSIM questions
Which network does the Northern Cyprus eSIM use?
We don't publish a single operator name for Northern Cyprus, because the profile can attach to more than one partner network and pick 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 Northern Cyprus?
No. Northern Cyprus plans run on 4G/LTE, which is what the network covers 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 Northern Cyprus?
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 inside the 3 GB plan ($17); a fortnight of heavier use is closer to 10 GB ($39).
When does my Northern Cyprus plan start counting down?
When the eSIM first connects to a network in Northern Cyprus, 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 Northern Cyprus eSIM as a hotspot?
Yes. Tethering is enabled on every Northern Cyprus 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 Northern Cyprus?
Yes. Nothing is removed from your phone. The Northern Cyprus 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 Northern Cyprus 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 Northern Cyprus?
You can top up from the same page — buy another Northern Cyprus 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 Romania and Russia — do I need separate eSIMs?
Not necessarily. The Europe plan covers 47 destinations including Northern Cyprus on a single profile from $7.50. If Northern Cyprus 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 Northern Cyprus 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.
