Paraguay eSIM

Most flagship smartphones released since 2018-2019 support eSIM, including iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, and Samsung Galaxy S20 series and newer. Tablets, smartwatches and an increasing number of laptops also support eSIM.

How to verify eSIM support on your device

1. iPhone: Settings → Cellular → look for "Add eSIM" or "Add Cellular Plan". You can also dial *#06# , if you see an "EID" (32-digit number), your phone has eSIM hardware.
2. Android: Settings → Connections (or Network & Internet) → SIM Cards → look for "Download a SIM instead" or "Add eSIM".
3. EID check: most eSIM-capable Android phones show EID in Settings → About Phone → Status.

Tip: Even if your phone supports eSIM hardware, it must be unlocked (not carrier-locked) to use third-party eSIMs like Cellesim. Most phones bought outright are unlocked; phones from carrier instalment plans may require unlocking after the contract is paid off.

Almost every flagship smartphone released since 2019 supports eSIM, making it ideal for international travel. Compatible models include iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer, plus a growing list of mid-range devices. If your phone has Settings → Cellular → "Add eSIM", you're ready to use a Cellesim plan abroad.

Travellers benefit most from eSIM because it eliminates the airport SIM-card queue, removes the need to swap your home SIM out, and lets you keep your usual phone number active for SMS verification. A Cellesim travel eSIM activates the moment you land , no shop visit required.

4. Android version: Android 9 or newer typically supports eSIM, though it depends on the manufacturer.
5. Region-specific variants: some Samsung models sold in Hong Kong or China are dual physical SIM with no eSIM , verify your specific model number.

Travel-friendly phones that don't support eSIM

Tip: if your current phone doesn't support eSIM but you travel often, an unlocked, mid-range eSIM-capable phone (e.g., Pixel 7a, iPhone SE 3, Samsung Galaxy A55) makes an excellent secondary travel device , pair it with a Cellesim plan and you have a full mobile internet kit for any destination.

 Denne specifikke plan er kun gyldig i Paraguay. Dette er det vigtigste spørgsmål. Hvis du besøger Iguazu Falls, krydser du ind i Brasilien (Foz do Iguaçu) og Argentina (Puerto Iguazú). Din forbindelse stopper ved grænsen. Til denne rejse anbefaler vi stærkt vores Latinamerika regionale eSIM (f.eks. "Sydamerika"-plan) for at forblive sømløst forbundet i alle tre lande. 

 Denne specifikke plan er kun gyldig i Paraguay. Hvis du er på en Sydamerika-tur i flere lande og tager en bus fra Asunción til Bolivia eller Argentina, vil din forbindelse stoppe ved grænsen. Til dette er vores Latinamerika regionale eSIM den bedste løsning. 

Nej! Dette er en stor fordel. At købe et fysisk lokalt SIM-kort i Asunción (ASU) Lufthavn kræver, at du finder en kiosk (Tigo, Claro), bruger (ofte begrænset) spansk og gennemgår en obligatorisk pasregistreringsproces. Vores eSIM er 100 % digitalt, kræver ingen ID-registrering og kan installeres, før du flyver, så du er forbundet i det øjeblik, du lander. 

 For at give dig den bedste hastighed og dækning opretter vores eSIM forbindelse til Paraguays premium-udbydere, typisk Tigo eller Claro. Tigo anses bredt for at have det mest omfattende og pålidelige 4G-netværk, især i landdistrikter uden for hovedstaden. 

 Du skal sætte forventninger. Du vil have pålidelig 4G/LTE-dækning i hovedstaden Asunción og den anden by, Ciudad del Este. Imidlertid er Gran Chaco-regionen et af de mest tyndtbefolkede områder på Jorden. Du vil have et signal i hovedbyerne langs Trans-Chaco motorvejen, men skal forvente lange "døde zoner" uden signal imellem. 

 Det gør de fleste moderne telefoner, men du skal tjekke vores specifikke liste her: eSIM-kompatible enheder for at være 100 % sikker, før du køber. 

Ja. Bolt og Uber er de mest populære og sikre måder at komme rundt i Asunción, og pålidelige data er afgørende for at booke ture uden at bruge kontanter. 

Ja. Dækningen er fremragende i Ciudad del Estes kommercielle centrum, hvilket giver dig mulighed for at sammenligne priser online med det samme, mens du handler efter elektronik. 

Ja. Du vil have et stærkt 4G-signal ved Itaipu Binacional-dæmningen, så du kan livestreame eller dele billeder af de massive udslip. 

Ja. Dækningen er generelt pålidelig nær Encarnación og Jesuit-missionerne, så du kan downloade lydguider, mens du udforsker UNESCO-ruinerne.
