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.

Banyak wisatawan berasumsi bahwa karena Montserrat adalah Wilayah Luar Negeri Inggris, paket SIM Inggris mereka dapat digunakan secara gratis. Hal ini seringkali salah. Sebagian besar operator Inggris dan Eropa memperlakukan Montserrat sebagai "Zona Internasional" dengan biaya roaming yang tinggi. eSIM Cellesim Montserrat adalah alternatif yang jauh lebih murah, memastikan Anda tidak pulang ke rumah dengan tagihan telepon yang tidak terduga. 

 Paket khusus ini hanya berlaku di Montserrat. Karena hampir semua wisatawan tiba di Montserrat melalui penerbangan atau feri dari Antigua, Anda juga memerlukan koneksi ke sana.
