How does Simbye eSIM work for Georgia?
Book before you fly
Pick your data amount and validity, pay, and you get an email with a setup link and a QR code straight away. Install the eSIM at home on WLAN, in your own time. The validity is not running yet.
Switch it on in Georgia
After landing in Tbilisi, Kutaisi or Batumi, select the eSIM as your line for mobile data and turn data roaming on for it. Your phone connects to Magti, Beeline or Geocell, and you do not enter an APN.
Validity starts, add more data
The validity only starts when your phone first connects to a Georgian network. If the data runs low, you top up online at any time, with no new eSIM and no new setup.
Check Device Compatibility
Make sure your device supports eSIM before purchasing

There is nothing to configure. Once you have landed in Georgia and the eSIM is switched on as your data line, your phone connects to one of the available networks by itself. You do not enter an APN. Only two switches matter: the eSIM has to be selected as the line for mobile data, and data roaming has to be on for it. If nothing appears after a few minutes, switch network selection from automatic to manual once and pick one of the networks shown by hand — Magti, Beeline (now Cellfie) or Geocell. That solves it in almost every case.
You already have signal in the arrivals hall at Tbilisi airport and at Kutaisi airport. Tbilisi, Batumi, Kutaisi, Rustavi, Gori, Zugdidi and Telavi are covered throughout. So are the Georgian Military Highway up to Gudauri and Stepantsminda below Mount Kazbek, the Kakheti wine region, Borjomi and Bakuriani, and the Black Sea coast around Batumi, Kobuleti and Ureki. Magti states that it covers 99 percent of the populated territory under Georgian control, and it reaches furthest into the mountain valleys, as far as Mestia in Svaneti and into remote villages. To be straight with you: on high passes, on hiking trails, in Tusheti and in narrow gorges the signal drops out. Download maps, tickets and addresses for offline use before you set off.
eSIM or a local SIM card in Georgia?
Georgia is easier with the eSIM, especially on a night flight: it works whether or not the arrivals kiosk is open, and nobody scans your passport — a local card gives you a Georgian number instead.
| Feature |  Simbye eSIM |
Local SIM card |
|---|---|---|
| ID required | No, there is nothing to register | Yes, your passport is scanned at the counter and the number is registered to you |
| When you get online | Right after landing, already set up at home | Only once the kiosk in the arrivals hall is open |
| Late night or early arrival | No problem, nobody needs to be there | The desks in Tbilisi and Kutaisi are not open around the clock |
| Paying | Before the trip, in your own currency | On the spot in lari (GEL) |
| Phone number | None, data only | Georgian number included |
| Calls and SMS | Not possible, but WhatsApp and video calls run over data | Possible |
| Topping up | Online any time, same eSIM | In a shop, at a terminal or in the operator's own app |
| Your SIM slot | Stays free, your home SIM stays in | Takes the slot, unless your phone is dual SIM |
For most travelers the eSIM is the simpler choice: set up before departure, no queuing on arrival.

Frequently Asked Questions about Georgia eSIM
Data, calls, real phone numbers, top-ups and setup — everything you need to know before you buy a Simbye eSIM.
You can buy an eSIM for Georgia online, ideally before you fly. You get the QR code straight away, scan it calmly at home and never have to look for a counter in the arrivals hall in Tbilisi or Kutaisi. The validity only starts when the eSIM first connects to a Georgian network.
No, there's no Georgian phone number. This is a data-only plan without a number. You cannot make calls or send SMS over the network with it. WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal and video calls all work normally over the data.
To sign up for Bolt or Wolt, set those accounts up at home with your usual number before flying. Your home SIM can stay in the phone and keep receiving the texts while the data runs over the eSIM.
No, you don't need to register in Georgia. Registration only applies to a SIM card you buy in a shop on the ground, where the seller scans your passport at the counter. With the eSIM none of that applies.
How much data you need for a week in Georgia depends on use — usually 5 to 10 GB for maps, Bolt, messaging and photos. If you stream on the road or share the hotspot with a laptop, take 20 GB or an unlimited plan. You can top up at any time.
In the mountains, in Svaneti and on the way to Kazbegi, it works as a rule in towns and along the Georgian Military Highway, with Magti reaching furthest into the valleys. On high passes, on hiking trails and in remote villages the signal can drop out. Download maps and bookings for offline use first.
Do not count on it working in Abkhazia or South Ossetia. These territories are not under Georgian control and the Georgian networks do not serve them. Several foreign ministries advise against travelling there.
Yes, eSIM is available in Georgia. An eSIM for Georgia is a digital SIM card built into your phone. Georgian networks run eSIM profiles for visitors, so your phone picks up a local signal in Tbilisi, Batumi and along the main roads without a plastic SIM. Your handset has to be eSIM-capable and carrier-unlocked, which the compatibility list on this page lets you check in a few seconds.
An eSIM for Georgia starts at 1,95€; the exact price depends on how many gigabytes and days you choose, and the table above lists every Georgia plan. A long weekend in Tbilisi needs far less than two weeks of hiking and navigation in Svaneti. You pay once when you buy, with no contract behind it.
The eSIM that's best for Georgia is the one that covers your route, carries the data you actually use and lasts as long as you stay. This one runs on Magti, Beeline (now Cellfie) and Geocell, and holds up in Tbilisi, Batumi and Kutaisi, along the Georgian Military Highway to Stepantsminda and through Kakheti. It is data only, so there is no Georgian number. Data sizes and days are in the plan table on this page.
