No pocket Wi-Fi or SIM counter to find when you land in Cyprus, and nothing to return before you fly home. The eSIM is installed before you leave.
Share with your laptop
Hotspot is allowed on the plan selected above, so a second device can use the same data in a cafe or a hotel room.

Cyprus travel data guide
A Cyprus eSIM from RoamZivo is a prepaid data plan for Cyprus that you install before you fly. Plans in Cyprus run on Vodafone and Epic, with 5G where the operator offers it. The eSIM is data only, so your own SIM stays in for calls and texts.
There are 19 plans to choose from. Data sizes run from 1 GB to 10 GB, validity from 1 to 30 days, and prices start at $1.99. Unlimited plans are listed too, each with its own fair use line. Hotspot sharing is supported on every plan. Top ups are available on some of the fixed data plans and go onto the same eSIM.
Visiting more than one country? The Europe eSIM covers Cyprus and 33 other countries on one plan, from $1.99. The Global eSIM covers Cyprus and 126 other countries on one plan, from $18.99.
Your days start the first time the eSIM connects in Cyprus, not when you buy, so you can install it at home days early. For a week of maps, messaging and social apps, most travellers are fine with 3 to 5 GB. Video calls or streaming need more, or an unlimited plan. Travel data in Cyprus from RoamZivo arrives as a QR code by email, with a copy kept in your account.
Cyprus FAQ
Does the eSIM work everywhere in Cyprus?
It connects wherever Vodafone and Epic have signal, which is the same network local customers use. The eSIM is data only.
When do my days start?
On the first connection in Cyprus, not at purchase. The plan selected above (2 GB) runs for 15 days from that moment. You can install the eSIM at home and the clock stays still until you connect.
Do I get a local phone number in Cyprus?
No. The eSIM is data only. Your own SIM stays in for calls and texts, and WhatsApp keeps working over the eSIM data.
Can I share data with my laptop?
Yes. Hotspot sharing is supported on the plan selected above, so your laptop or tablet can use the eSIM data through your phone.
Is the Cyprus eSIM 5G?
Yes, Cyprus plans are sold as 3G/4G/5G or 4G/5G, and both networks they use, Vodafone and Epic, are listed with 5G. You need a 5G phone to benefit, and the actual signal depends on where you are on the island.
Is prepaid data for Cyprus better as fixed or unlimited?
Fixed prepaid data suits light users in Cyprus and costs less for them. Unlimited suits people who stream, upload or hotspot daily. Remember that unlimited means 1 GB or 3 GB per day at full speed, then 1 Mbps.
Do I get a Cyprus phone number?
No, the Cyprus eSIM carries data only and comes without a phone number. Calls and SMS stay on your home SIM. Apps that call over the internet work as usual and keep the number you registered them with.
Can I buy the Cyprus eSIM after I have already landed?
Yes, you can buy it in Cyprus as long as you have WiFi to receive the email and install it. Doing it at home is less stressful. The plan does not start until the eSIM first connects there anyway.
How do I check my phone is unlocked before buying?
Ask your home carrier, or on an iPhone look in Settings under General and About for the carrier lock line. A phone that is locked to one carrier will not accept a Cyprus eSIM, so check before you pay.
Can I top up a Cyprus eSIM?
Some Cyprus plans support top up and others do not. The plan details say which. If yours can't be topped up and you run out, buy another plan and install it alongside the first.
What happens when I pass the daily amount on an unlimited Cyprus plan?
Your Cyprus data keeps working but slows to 1 Mbps for the rest of that day. Full speed comes back the next day. Messaging and maps stay usable at that speed, while video and big downloads become very slow.
How do I top up if I run low?
The plan selected above does not offer top ups. Buy a new plan from this page instead and install it as a second eSIM.
