Argentina is big, and a trip often joins several worlds: the streets of Buenos Aires, the vineyards of Mendoza and the lakes and glaciers of the south. You will want maps, ride apps and messages from the first hour. A travel eSIM gives you data on arrival, with no shop visit, and you keep your own SIM for calls and banking codes.
Why an eSIM for Argentina?
A local SIM costs time on your first day. An eSIM is installed at home on Wi-Fi before you fly, so you have data from the moment you land and your own SIM stays in the phone.
Which networks carry the signal?
Our Argentina plans list two networks: Claro and Movistar. Coverage is good in Buenos Aires and the main cities, and it can be weaker on long road stretches and in remote parts of Patagonia, so download offline maps before a long drive.
How much data does a trip to Argentina use?
A week in Buenos Aires with maps, ride apps and messaging fits in 3GB. If you upload photos every day, make video calls or work from your phone, plan on 5GB or more. A month across several regions is a good case for 10GB.
Choosing a plan size
1GB for 7 days costs $6.50. 2GB for 15 days costs $11.00 and 3GB for 15 days costs $12.00. 3GB for 30 days costs $13.00, only $1.00 more, so take it if your dates may stretch. 5GB for 30 days is $18.50, 10GB for 30 days is $26.50 and 20GB for 30 days is $43.00.
No unlimited plans
We do not sell unlimited plans for Argentina. Every plan has a fixed amount of data, and 20GB for 30 days at $43.00 is the largest we list.

Quick answers
Which Argentina eSIM should I buy for a week in Buenos Aires?
3GB for 15 days at $12.00 covers a week with room to spare. For maps and messages only, 2GB for 15 days at $11.00 is enough for most people.
Does the Argentina eSIM include calls?
No. Our plans are data only. Keep your home number on your own SIM for calls.
Will it work in Patagonia?
Coverage is good in the towns and can be weaker on remote roads, so download offline maps before you drive.
When does the plan start?
When the eSIM first connects to a network in Argentina, not when you buy or install it.
