Réunion travel data guide
A Réunion eSIM from RoamZivo is a prepaid data plan for Réunion that you install before you fly. Plans in Réunion run on Orange, 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 $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 the fixed data plans and go onto the same eSIM.
Visiting more than one country? The Africa eSIM covers Réunion and 20 other countries on one plan, from $8.99. The Global eSIM covers Réunion and 126 other countries on one plan, from $18.99.
Your days start the first time the eSIM connects in Réunion, 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 Réunion from RoamZivo arrives as a QR code by email, with a copy kept in your account.
Réunion FAQ
Does the eSIM work everywhere in Réunion?
It connects wherever Orange has signal, which is the same network local customers use. The eSIM is data only.
When do my days start?
On the first connection in Réunion, not at purchase. The plan selected above (3 GB) runs for 1 day 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 Réunion?
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 3 GB enough for two weeks in Réunion?
3 GB is enough for two weeks in Réunion for maps, messaging and browsing, provided you save video and large downloads for WiFi. The 3 GB plan with 15 days fits that trip. Heavier users should pick the 15 day unlimited plan.
Is the Réunion eSIM 5G?
The Réunion eSIM uses Orange, which is listed as a 5G network. Some plans are labelled 3G/4G only, so check the plan card. A 5G phone is needed, and we do not promise 5G at any particular place.
Do I get a phone number with the Réunion eSIM?
No, the Réunion eSIM is data only. It has no phone number and does not support calls or SMS. Your home SIM handles those, and you can use messaging apps over the eSIM data.
When do the plan's days begin?
The days begin when the eSIM first connects to a network in Réunion. Buying and installing ahead of time does not start the plan, so you can prepare everything at home.
Can I keep two travel eSIMs on one phone?
Most phones that support eSIM can store more than one and let you switch between them in settings. That is useful if you visit Réunion and another destination that needs its own plan.
Can I share data with my travel partner?
Yes, hotspot is allowed on all Réunion plans, so your partner can connect to your phone. On unlimited plans the shared data counts toward the daily full speed amount of 1 GB or 3 GB.
What if I use up my data in Réunion?
If your plan supports top up, you can add data. Some Réunion plans do and some do not. Otherwise you can buy a new plan and install it over WiFi. Unlimited plans do not run out, but slow down after the daily amount.
How do I top up if I run low?
Open My eSIMs, pick this eSIM and choose a top up. It goes onto the same eSIM, so there is no new QR code to scan.
