How to Get Your eSIM
- Purchase and receive your QR code
Complete your order and receive the eSIM QR code by email within minutes. Keep this email accessible—you'll need it for installation. - Install while connected to Wi-Fi
Scan the QR code in your device settings before departing. Installation requires an internet connection, so complete this step at home or the office. - Activate upon arrival
Enable the eSIM line when you land in Greece. Your French phone number becomes active immediately, ready for calls, SMS, and data. - Share your number
Give your +33 number to clients, colleagues, and services. Incoming calls and texts reach you free of charge, wherever you travel next.
How the Voice Plan Works
The Greece Phone Number eSIM operates on Cosmote, Vodafone, and Wind networks, providing mobile data alongside full voice and messaging capability. You receive a French phone number—not a Greek local number—which anyone can dial using the +33 country code.
Outgoing calls and SMS are unlimited, but only while you are physically located within geographic Europe. This means the entire European continent, regardless of EU or EEA membership. Step outside Europe, and outgoing calls and texts are no longer included.
Incoming calls and SMS work anywhere in the world and are free of charge. They do not count against your allowance. This means your French number remains fully reachable whether you're in Athens, transit through Dubai, or continuing to a meeting in New York. Bank verification codes, airline confirmations, and client callbacks all arrive without additional cost.
Each plan runs for exactly 30 days from activation. The line cannot be refilled or extended—when validity ends or your data allowance is exhausted, the service closes. Plan your purchase timing to align with your actual travel dates.
Staying Connected in the Islands
Is This Plan Right for You?
Choose the Phone Number eSIM plan when: Your work requires a dialable phone number that colleagues and clients can reach directly. You need to receive SMS verification codes from banks, airlines, or business platforms. Local suppliers, logistics contacts, or service providers communicate primarily by phone. You value the credibility of providing a real callback number rather than asking contacts to use messaging apps.
Consider a data-only plan when: Your communication happens entirely through apps like WhatsApp, Teams, or Zoom—and everyone you need to reach uses them too. You prioritise maximum data volume over voice capability. You don't need to receive SMS codes during your trip, or you have an alternative arrangement for verification messages. If this describes your travel, the Greece Unlimited may offer better value with more gigabytes for the same budget.
Neither plan allows refills, so if you anticipate needing both high data volume and a phone number, consider whether your primary need is connectivity or reachability. For general travel information and standard data plans, see Greece for options that may suit leisure-focused trips.
Traveller Tips
- Share your +33 French number with key contacts before departure so they can reach you immediately upon your arrival in Greece.
- Install the eSIM while still connected to home Wi-Fi—activation in Greece requires the QR code to already be loaded on your device.
- Save your French number in your own contacts so you can provide it quickly when Greek businesses ask for a callback number.
- Incoming SMS verification codes arrive free worldwide, so keep this number active in your banking and travel app profiles.
- Note that outgoing calls and SMS work only within geographic Europe—if your trip continues to Turkey or beyond, incoming still works but outgoing will not.
- Plan your purchase date carefully: the 30-day validity cannot be extended or refilled, so align activation with your actual travel window.
Crossing Borders on This Trip?
Calls and texts work the same way on every Phone Number eSIM plan - what changes is where the mobile data is included. If your trip crosses borders, the eSIM with a phone number that works across Europe covers data across the continent.
Before you buy
- Your number is French (+33) and it is not permanent — it changes roughly every 30 days.
- Verification codes arrive fine during your trip. But don't set this as your permanent number for two-factor authentication or WhatsApp: when it changes, you can lose access to that account.
- There is no top-up. When the plan ends the line closes — a new plan means a new eSIM to install and a new number.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
The Phone Number eSIM provides a French (+33) number rather than a local Greek number. This allows the same number to work across all supported European countries while keeping incoming calls and SMS free anywhere in the world. Callers simply dial the French number to reach you, regardless of whether you're in Greece or elsewhere.
No. Unlimited outgoing calls and SMS are available only while you are physically located within geographic Europe. If you travel outside Europe—to Turkey, the Middle East, or any other region—outgoing calls and texts are no longer included. However, incoming calls and SMS remain free worldwide.
Yes. Incoming calls and SMS are free of charge and work anywhere in the world, not just in Europe. Whether you're in Athens, transiting through Singapore, or attending meetings in New York, people can reach you at your French number without any cost to you or deduction from your allowance.
No. The Phone Number eSIM cannot be refilled or topped up. When your data runs out, your validity period ends, or your call and SMS allowance is exhausted, the line closes permanently. If you need continued service, you must purchase a new eSIM.
Yes. SMS messages arrive at your French number free of charge from anywhere in the world. This includes verification codes from banks, airlines, and apps. Update your banking profile with the +33 number before travel if you want codes delivered to this line.

Travel Blog
The Greece Phone Number eSIM combines mobile data with a working phone number, giving business travellers a complete communication setup from the moment they land. Outgoing calls and SMS are unlimited while you remain anywhere in geographic Europe—not limited to EU membership, but the full continental footprint. Incoming calls and SMS are free of charge and reach you anywhere in the world, whether you're island-hopping in the Aegean or attending meetings on another continent. The number assigned is a French (+33) number, not a Greek local number, which means colleagues and clients dial a European number that follows you across borders.
This plan fits travellers whose work depends on voice communication: confirming logistics, coordinating suppliers, handling urgent client calls, or receiving SMS verification codes from banks and booking systems. If your trip involves negotiation, callbacks, or any scenario where silence costs money, the phone-number plan delivers where data-only plans cannot. However, if your connectivity needs centre on video calls, cloud syncing, and messaging apps—without the requirement for a dialable number—a standard data plan may serve you better and often offers more gigabytes for the same spend.
Every phone-number plan runs for 30 days and cannot be refilled or topped up. When your data, minutes, or SMS allowance runs out, or when the validity period ends, the line closes permanently. Plan your usage accordingly: if your trip extends or your needs grow, you will need a fresh eSIM rather than an extension.
