How to Get Your eSIM
- Purchase and receive your QR code
Complete your order and check your email for the eSIM QR code and installation instructions. - Scan and install before you travel
Use your phone's camera or eSIM settings to scan the code. Installation requires an internet connection, so do this while still on Wi-Fi at home. - Activate when you land in Ireland
Enable the eSIM line in your phone settings once you arrive. Your French phone number becomes active and ready to use. - Share your number with family
Give your new +33 number to relatives and essential contacts. They dial it like any international number, and you answer normally.
How the Voice Plan Works
Your Ireland Phone Number eSIM provides mobile data alongside a real French phone number (+33). This is not a local Irish number—callers reach you by dialling the French number, which works identically to any international call from their perspective.
Outgoing calls and SMS: Unlimited within geographic Europe. Whether you're calling a Dublin restaurant, texting a tour operator in Cork, or phoning family back in France or Germany, outgoing communication is included without counting against a cap. This applies while you are physically located anywhere in geographic Europe.
Incoming calls and SMS: Free and worldwide. Your phone rings wherever you are on the planet. Bank verification texts, airline booking confirmations, and callbacks from relatives arrive at no charge and do not deduct from your allowance. This means if you travel onward from Ireland to somewhere outside Europe, people can still reach you.
The two directions have different reach: outgoing unlimited requires you to be in Europe; incoming free works globally. Both features together mean family at home can call you without apps, and you can call them back without worrying about per-minute charges—as long as you remain on the continent.
Staying Connected in Ireland
Is This Plan Right for You?
The Phone Number eSIM plan fits when: Your parents or grandparents prefer to dial a number rather than navigate apps. You need to receive SMS verification codes from banks, government services or airlines. Local businesses—B&Bs, car hire desks, tour operators—require a callback number. You want family to reach you by phone without explaining how to install WhatsApp or create an account.
A data-only plan fits better when: Everyone you communicate with already uses messaging apps, and you never receive important SMS codes on your mobile number. You want longer validity or different data tiers. Your home SIM already handles incoming texts via Wi-Fi or you have call forwarding arranged. If voice features are unnecessary, the Ireland Unlimited offers generous data without the phone-number component, often at a lower cost for the same coverage.
Not sure which suits your trip? Compare both options—if you only need data and app-based calls, explore the Ireland for plans that focus purely on connectivity without a voice component.
Traveller Tips
- Save your +33 number in your own phone contacts so you can share it quickly with rental agencies, tour desks or new acquaintances.
- Tell family the number is French—if they're unfamiliar with international dialling, send them the full number including the +33 prefix so their phone formats it correctly.
- Test an incoming call before you leave home Wi-Fi: have someone ring your new number to confirm everything installed properly.
- Keep your home SIM installed as a secondary line if your phone supports dual SIM—this lets you retain your original number for emergencies without swapping cards.
- Remember that outgoing calls and SMS are unlimited only while you're in geographic Europe; if you travel onward, switch to app-based calls for outbound communication.
- Plan for the 30-day limit: the line cannot be extended or refilled, so if your trip is longer, consider timing your activation accordingly.
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) mobile number rather than a local Irish one. This is how the service is structured across Europe. Callers simply dial the French number to reach you, and it works exactly like any other international call from their end. You answer normally on your phone while in Ireland or anywhere else.
No. The Ireland Phone Number eSIM cannot be refilled or topped up. When your data, minutes or SMS allowance is exhausted—or when the 30-day validity period ends—the line closes and the number is released. If your trip is longer than 30 days, you would need to purchase a new plan.
Yes. Incoming calls and SMS are free anywhere in the world. If you travel onward from Ireland to a destination outside geographic Europe, people can still call and text your French number and it will reach you at no charge.
Outgoing calls and SMS are unlimited while you are physically located within geographic Europe—not limited to EU member states, but the continent geographically. If you leave Europe, outgoing calls and SMS are no longer included in the unlimited allowance.
Yes. The French number receives SMS like any mobile number, so verification codes from banks, airlines, apps and other services will arrive. Incoming SMS is free regardless of where you are in the world, making it reliable for two-factor authentication.
Absolutely. That's the primary advantage of the Phone Number eSIM plan. Your relatives dial the French number from their landline or mobile, and your phone rings. No apps to install, no accounts to create, no video-call invitations to accept. It works like any normal phone call.

The Ireland Phone Number eSIM combines mobile data with a working phone number, bridging the gap between app-based messaging and the real telephone network. Your plan includes a French mobile number (+33) that relatives, businesses and automated systems can dial directly. Outgoing calls and SMS are unlimited while you remain within geographic Europe—not limited to EU member states, but the continent itself. Incoming calls and SMS work anywhere in the world and are free, meaning bank verification codes, airline alerts and family callbacks reach you whether you're in Dublin, on a Galway-bound bus, or continuing onward outside Europe.
This plan fits travellers whose contacts at home cannot or will not use apps. When your elderly parents expect to dial a number that simply rings, when pharmacies send prescription reminders by text, or when a service provider requires a callback number before processing your booking, the phone-number plan delivers what a data-only eSIM cannot. However, if everyone you need to reach already uses WhatsApp or iMessage, and you never receive SMS verification codes, a standard data plan costs less and may suit you better.
Every Ireland Phone Number eSIM plan runs for 30 days from activation. The line cannot be refilled or topped up: once your data, minutes or SMS allowance is exhausted—or when the 30-day window closes—the service ends and the number is released. Plan accordingly if your trip spans more than a month or if you expect heavy calling.
