Frequently Asked Questions
No! This is the #1 roaming trap. Although the Faroe Islands are part of the Kingdom of Denmark, they are NOT a member of the European Union (EU). Your "Roam Like at Home" (RLAH) plan does not apply. Most EU and UK carriers will charge you extremely high international roaming fees (e.g., £6 per day or £2 per MB). A Cellesim eSIM is the only way to get a fixed, cheap price and avoid a massive shock bill.

Yes, in the villages. The Faroes have a world-class network. Our eSIM connects to top local networks (like Føroya Tele) that provide strong 4G/LTE coverage in almost every town and village, including the remote islands of Kalsoy (for the famous lighthouse hike) and Mykines (for the puffins). However, you may lose signal between villages or on a remote mountain cliff hike.
Yes, absolutely. The Faroe Islands are famous for their incredible undersea tunnels (like Eysturoyartunnilin). The local networks have equipped these tunnels with full 4G/LTE coverage. You can use Google Maps or stream music for the entire 11km drive underwater without any connection drops.
To give you the best speed and coverage, our eSIM connects to the Faroe Islands' premium Tier-1 networks, typically Føroya Tele (FT) or Hey (formerly Vodafone FO). Føroya Tele is the state-owned provider with the most extensive coverage, ensuring you stay connected even in remote fishing villages.

Yes, 100%. Vágar (FAE) is a tiny airport, and the 24/7 kiosk in the arrivals hall can be crowded or confusing. Our eSIM is 100% digital, requires no ID registration, and can be installed before you fly. You will be connected the moment you land, ready to use Google Maps for your rental car.
Yes. Coverage is generally reliable on the famous trail to the "lake above the ocean" on Vágar island, allowing you to share photos instantly.
Signal is strong at the Tórshavn and Tvøroyri ports, but expect the connection to drop significantly during the 2-hour open sea crossing.
Yes. The capital Tórshavn has excellent 4G+ and often 5G coverage, making it perfect for video calls and remote work from local cafes.

You will have signal at the harbor, but connection may be spotty on the boat tour while navigating deep inside the narrow caves and cliffs.
Look up your phone’s exact model number with the manufacturer to see if it’s listed as compatible, and make sure your phone is not carrier-locked. Seeing an EID number or an “Add eSIM” option in your settings is a good sign, but some phones have regional restrictions. If you’re not sure, please contact our support team before you buy.

CRITICAL WARNING: The Faroe Islands are NOT in the EU!
This is one of the most common and expensive "roaming traps" for all travelers, including those from Europe:
- The Faroe Islands are a self-governing territory of the Kingdom of Denmark, but they are NOT part of the European Union (EU) or EEA.
- This means "Roam Like at Home" (RLAH) DOES NOT APPLY.
- The moment you land at Vágar Airport (FAE), your home carrier (from the US, UK, or even EU countries like Denmark or Germany) will connect to a non-EU network (Faroese Telecom) and start charging astronomical "Rest of World" roaming fees.
A Faroe Islands eSIM is the only smart way to get affordable, high-speed data and avoid a massive surprise bill.
Why a Cellesim eSIM is Essential for the Faroe Islands
- Avoid the Roaming Trap: Our eSIM is your shield against "bill shock". Don't pay $3.59/MB for data.
- Instant (FAE) Airport Connection: Get online the moment you land at (FAE) Airport. This is critical for activating your GPS, checking car rental details, or contacting your guesthouse.
- Keep Your Home Number: Your eSIM handles the data, so your primary SIM (and your WhatsApp number) remains active for important calls and texts.
- Excellent 4G Coverage: The Faroes have a surprisingly robust 4G network. We partner with top local operators to provide the best available connection in Tórshavn, Klaksvík, and along the main tourist roads.
