Romania eSIM guide: mobile data for Bucharest, Brasov and Transylvania

A castle in the Carpathians, a train to Brasov, and a roaming bill you do not want to open. Data from $2.50 solves the last one.

Plans

1GB/7 days at $2.50 to 20GB/30 days at $18.50, and 50GB/180 days at $46.00

Romania mixes city breaks in Bucharest and Cluj with castles, mountain roads and train rides through Transylvania. You will want maps, train and ride apps and messages with a host from the first hour. A travel eSIM gives you data on arrival for a fraction of typical roaming charges, and you keep your own SIM for calls.

Why an eSIM for Romania?

An eSIM is installed at home on Wi-Fi before you fly, so you have data from the moment you land. It avoids a shop visit and a SIM swap, and your own SIM stays in the phone for calls and banking codes.

Which networks carry the signal?

Our Romania plans list two networks: Vodafone and Orange. Coverage is good in cities and along main roads, and can be weaker in remote mountain areas, so download offline maps before a long drive.

How much data does a trip to Romania use?

A week of maps, ride and train apps and messaging fits in 3GB. If you upload photos every day, make video calls or share your connection, plan on 5GB or more. For a month, 10GB gives you room.

Choosing a plan size

1GB for 7 days costs $2.50. 2GB for 15 days costs $3.50, and 3GB for 15 days and 3GB for 30 days both cost $4.00, so the 30-day plan is the better buy. 5GB for 30 days is $6.00, 10GB for 30 days is $10.50 and 20GB for 30 days is $18.50. For a long stay or remote work there is also 50GB for 180 days at $46.00.

No unlimited plans

We do not sell unlimited plans for Romania. Every plan has a fixed amount of data, and 50GB for 180 days at $46.00 is the largest we list.

Quick answers

Which Romania eSIM should I buy for a week?

3GB for 30 days at $4.00 covers a week with room to spare and costs the same as the 15-day plan. For maps and messages only, 1GB for 7 days at $2.50 may be enough.

Does the Romania eSIM include calls?

No. Our plans are data only. Keep your home number on your own SIM for calls and check your carrier's rates.

Which networks does it use?

Vodafone and Orange. Coverage is strongest in cities and can be weaker in remote mountains.

When does the plan start?

When the eSIM first connects to a network in Romania, not when you buy or install it.
