How do I set up an eSIM for Maldives?
Check your phone takes an eSIM
It must support eSIM and be unlocked from your home carrier. iPhone XS, XR and later support eSIM, as do Pixel 4 and later. Check your model.
Buy the plan before you fly
Pick a plan above. The provider sends a QR code, an install link or an in-app button.
Install it on Wi-Fi
iPhone: Settings → Cellular (or Mobile Data) → Add eSIM. Pixel: Settings → Network & internet → SIMs. Installing uses Wi-Fi, not the plan.
Switch it on when you land
Make the travel eSIM your data line and turn on data roaming for that line only. Your home SIM can stay on for calls and texts.
