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.

 Paket khusus ini hanya berlaku di Azerbaijan. Ini adalah pertanyaan paling penting bagi wisatawan "Wisata Kaukasus". Jika Anda naik kereta dari Baku ke Tbilisi (Georgia) atau melintasi perbatasan ke Iran, koneksi Anda akan terhenti. Untuk perjalanan multi-negara yang lancar, kami sangat merekomendasikan eSIM Regional kami (misalnya, paket "Kaukasus") yang mencakup keduanya Azerbaijan dan Georgia. 

Ini adalah poin penting. Pemerintah di Azerbaijan memang sering memblokir atau membatasi media sosial dan panggilan VoIP (panggilan WhatsApp, FaceTime, Skype) selama acara politik. Meskipun pesan teks biasanya berfungsi, Anda tidak dapat mengandalkan panggilan suara atau video yang jelas. Kami sangat menyarankan Anda memasang VPN yang andal sebelum Anda tiba untuk melewati batasan ini. 

Tidak! Ini adalah jebakan roaming #1. Meskipun Azerbaijan berada di Eropa, namun BUKAN anggota Uni Eropa (UE). Paket "Roam Like at Home" (RLAH) Anda tidak berlaku. Sebagian besar operator di UE, Inggris, dan AS (seperti AT&T, Vodafone, O2) akan menagih tarif roaming internasional "Istirahat Dunia" yang sangat tinggi (misalnya, $10-$15 atau £6 per hari). Cellesim eSIM adalah satu-satunya cara untuk mendapatkan harga data yang tetap dan murah. 

Ya, 100%. Membeli kartu SIM lokal fisik (seperti Azercell atau Bakcell) di Bandara Heydar Aliyev (GYD) mengharuskan Anda menemukan kios, mengantri panjang, dan melalui proses pendaftaran paspor wajib. eSIM kami 100% digital, tidak memerlukan registrasi ID, dan dapat dipasang sebelum Anda terbang, sehingga Anda langsung terhubung saat Anda mendarat (dan dapat mengaktifkan VPN Anda). 

Ya, di perkotaan. eSIM kami terhubung ke jaringan lokal premium (seperti Azercell) yang menyediakan jangkauan 4G/LTE yang kuat tidak hanya di ibu kota Baku, tetapi juga di kota wisata utama Ganja dan Sheki, dan di jalan raya utama. Anda mungkin kehilangan sinyal di Pegunungan Kaukasus yang terpencil, namun Anda akan terhubung di semua wilayah berpenduduk. 

Secara umum, tidak. Untuk kunjungan wisata jangka pendek (biasanya hingga 30 hari), Anda tidak perlu mendaftarkan IMEI perangkat Anda. Namun, jika Anda berencana untuk tinggal di Azerbaijan lebih dari 30 hari, peraturan setempat mengharuskan Anda mendaftarkan ponsel Anda agar tidak diblokir. eSIM kami sempurna untuk perjalanan jangka pendek tanpa kerumitan ini. 

 Ya, tentu saja. Bolt dan Uber adalah cara paling populer untuk berkeliling Baku dengan aman dan murah. Anda memerlukan koneksi data yang stabil untuk memesan perjalanan, melacak pengemudi Anda secara real-time, dan membayar melalui aplikasi, karena banyak pengemudi lebih memilih pembayaran digital daripada uang tunai. 

 Ya. eSIM kami terhubung ke jaringan lokal premium yang menyediakan jangkauan 4G/LTE yang kuat tidak hanya di Baku, namun juga di kawasan resor pegunungan populer seperti Shahdag (Gusar) dan Tufandag (Gabala), memungkinkan Anda berbagi foto ski secara instan. 

 Ya. Saat acara besar seperti Sirkuit F1 Kota Baku, jaringan bisa menjadi padat, namun eSIM kami mengutamakan konektivitas yang stabil. Anda dapat memeriksa pembaruan balapan langsung, peta, dan berbagi video dari tribun tanpa gangguan. 

 Ya. Meskipun kartu kredit diterima secara luas di Baku, banyak terminal pembayaran memerlukan koneksi internet aktif di ponsel Anda untuk pemberitahuan transaksi instan atau untuk menambah dompet digital Anda. eSIM ini memastikan Anda tidak akan terjebak dalam ketidakmampuan membayar di restoran di Nizami Street atau Kota Tua (Icherisheher). 

 Sebagian besar ponsel modern memilikinya, namun Anda harus memeriksa daftar spesifik kami di sini: Perangkat yang Kompatibel dengan eSIM untuk memastikan 100% sebelum membeli.
