Setting up your Peru eSIM
- Check your phone is unlocked and supports eSIM (dial *#06# and look for an EID).
- Buy a Peru or regional plan and install it on Wi-Fi before you travel.
- On arrival, switch the eSIM line on, enable data roaming for that line only, and set it as your mobile-data line.
- Keep your home SIM on for calls/SMS if you need them, but turn off its data roaming.
FAQ
What is the best eSIM for Peru?
It depends on how long you're staying and how much data you need. Airalo, Yesim and Saily all sell Peru plans; compare their live prices and data caps using the links on this page, and check that unlimited plans don't have a low daily speed cap.
Do I need an eSIM or a local SIM in Peru?
An eSIM is easiest if your phone supports it: you can install it before you leave and be online as soon as you land in Peru. A physical local SIM can be cheaper for long stays but usually means a shop visit and ID.
When should I install my eSIM for Peru?
Install it at home on Wi-Fi a day or two before departure, but only switch the line on (and enable its data roaming) when you arrive, so the plan's validity doesn't start early.
What currency, plug and time zone does Peru use?
Peru uses the Peruvian sol (PEN). Plug types and voltage: A, C · 220 V. Local time zone: America/Lima.
