Skip the rental counter
No pocket Wi-Fi or SIM counter to find when you land in Israel, 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.

Israel travel data guide
A Israel eSIM from RoamZivo is a prepaid data plan for Israel that you install before you fly. Plans in Israel run on Hot Mobile, Cellcom and Pelephone, with 5G where the operator offers it. The eSIM is data only, so your own SIM stays in for calls and texts.
There are 18 plans to choose from. Data sizes run from 1 GB to 10 GB, validity from 1 to 30 days, and prices start at $2.99. 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 Middle East (5 countries) eSIM covers Israel and 4 other countries on one plan, from $4.99. The Asia Pacific eSIM covers Israel and 19 other countries on one plan, from $10.99. The Middle East eSIM covers Israel and 20 other countries on one plan, from $6.99. The Global eSIM covers Israel and 126 other countries on one plan, from $18.99.
Your days start the first time the eSIM connects in Israel, 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 Israel from RoamZivo arrives as a QR code by email, with a copy kept in your account.
Israel FAQ
Does the eSIM work everywhere in Israel?
It connects wherever Hot Mobile, Cellcom and Pelephone 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 Israel, 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 Israel?
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 1 GB enough for a week in Israel?
1 GB is enough for a week in Israel if you use mobile data for maps and messaging and rely on hotel WiFi for the rest. If you expect to stream, video call or hotspot, pick a 7 day unlimited plan instead.
Which operators does the Israel eSIM use?
The Israel eSIM uses Hot Mobile, Cellcom and Pelephone. All three are listed as 5G networks. Your phone picks from them automatically, and you can also select one by hand in your network settings.
Is there a regional plan that includes Israel?
Yes, the Middle East plan, the Asia Pacific plan and the Global plan all include Israel. They make sense when your trip covers more than one country. For Israel alone, compare the single country plans first.
When does my Israel plan start?
Your Israel plan starts when the eSIM first connects to a network in Israel. It does not start when you buy it or when you install it, so you can do both before you travel.
Do I need to remove my SIM card to use the eSIM?
No, leave your SIM card where it is. The Israel eSIM is added as a second line on the phone. You then choose the eSIM for mobile data and keep your own SIM for calls and texts.
Why did my unlimited plan slow down in the afternoon?
It slowed because you reached the daily full speed amount, which is 1 GB or 3 GB depending on your Israel plan. The speed is then up to 1 Mbps and goes back to full the next day.
Is hotspot allowed on Israel plans?
Yes, hotspot is allowed on all Israel plans. Data used through hotspot is counted the same way as data used on the phone, so it draws on your plan size or on your daily full speed amount.
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.
