No pocket Wi-Fi or SIM counter to find when you land in Suriname, 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.

Suriname travel data guide
A Suriname eSIM from RoamZivo is a prepaid data plan for Suriname that you install before you fly. Plans in Suriname run on Digicel, with 5G where the operator offers it. The eSIM is data only, so your own SIM stays in for calls and texts.
There are 12 plans to choose from. Data sizes run from 1 GB to 10 GB, validity from 1 to 30 days, and prices start at $8.99. 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.
Your days start the first time the eSIM connects in Suriname, 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 Suriname from RoamZivo arrives as a QR code by email, with a copy kept in your account.
Suriname FAQ
Does the eSIM work everywhere in Suriname?
It connects wherever Digicel 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 Suriname, 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 Suriname?
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.
Which network does the Suriname eSIM use?
The Suriname eSIM uses Digicel, listed at 4G. It is the only operator on these plans. Plan labels read 3G/4G or 4G/5G, and with the operator listed at 4G that is the speed class to plan around.
How much data do I need for a week in Suriname?
For a week in Suriname, 1 GB for 7 days covers messaging and maps. If you share photos and video daily, take the 7 day unlimited plan, which gives full speed up to 3 GB per day and slower data after that.
Does a regional plan cover Suriname?
No, there is no regional plan on this site that covers Suriname. The country plans on this page are the only option. If your trip includes a neighbouring country, you will need a separate eSIM for that part.
Can I install the Suriname eSIM without a QR code?
The QR code is the standard way, and it is what we send for a Suriname plan. If your camera cannot scan it, email support before the trip and explain the problem. Either way, you need WiFi during the install.
Do the days start when I install it?
No. The days start when the eSIM first connects to a network in Suriname. Installing at home does not start them. Keep the eSIM line switched off until you land if you want to be certain.
Will the eSIM work deep in the interior of Suriname?
We cannot promise coverage in any particular area. The eSIM connects wherever Digicel has signal and has no second network to fall back on. For remote parts of Suriname, download offline maps and tell people you may be out of reach.
Can I get more data if my fixed plan runs out?
On some Suriname plans you can top up, and the plan card shows which ones. If top up is not offered on yours, buy another plan. A 1 day plan is a simple fix for the final day of a trip.
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.
