How to Get Your eSIM
- Purchase and receive your QR code
Complete your order on eSIMno and the QR code arrives by email within minutes. You can install it before you travel. - Scan and install
On iPhone go to Settings › Cellular › Add eSIM. On Android go to Settings › Network › SIMs › Add eSIM. Scan the QR code when prompted. - Label your new line
Name it something clear like 'Norway Travel' so you can identify it easily in your settings. - Enable data roaming
Once in Norway, set the eSIM as your data line and turn on data roaming. Your connection activates on first use. - Keep your main SIM for calls
This is a data-only plan. Leave your home SIM active for any calls or texts you need to receive.
How the Unlimited Plan Works
Each day you receive 1 GB of high-speed data on the Telenor network. Use it for uploads, video calls, navigation or anything else that needs bandwidth. When that gigabyte is gone, your speed drops to 128 Kbps for the rest of the day — slow, but never disconnected.
At 00:00 UTC your daily allowance resets and you have another fresh gigabyte. That is a fixed moment in UTC, not midnight where you are, so check your phone's UTC offset if you plan around it.
The 128 Kbps fallback speed is enough for Google Maps directions, WhatsApp messages, emails and basic web browsing. It is not enough for video streaming, video calls or large file transfers. Be honest with yourself about what you need: if the reduced speed will frustrate you, monitor your usage during high-speed hours.
This is a data-only eSIM. There is no phone number, no voice calls and no SMS included.
Stay Connected While You Work

Is This Plan Right for You?
The Norway Unlimited plan fits you well if you upload photos and videos throughout the day and want the security of a connection that never cuts out completely. It works for travellers who can structure their heavy data use around a daily 1 GB budget, pushing large files in the morning and relying on the slower fallback for maps and messages later. If you are staying seven days or fewer and value the daily reset over a single large data pool, this plan makes sense.
Choose a different option if your trip runs longer than seven days — this plan cannot be refilled or extended, and when validity ends the line closes. For trips of a week or more, visit the Norway to find standard data plans with longer validity. If you need to make phone calls or send SMS, this data-only plan will not help; the Norway Voice includes a working phone number for calls and texts. And if you require sustained high-speed data for hours at a time without any throttling, a larger one-time data bundle will serve you better than a daily quota.
Traveller Tips
- Schedule large cloud uploads for early in your data day when you have full high-speed allowance — leave maps and messaging for after the slowdown.
- Download offline maps of Norway in Google Maps or Apple Maps before your trip so navigation works smoothly even at 128 Kbps.
- The daily reset happens at 00:00 UTC, so check your phone's world clock to know when your fresh gigabyte arrives.
- Keep your home SIM installed for any calls or texts you need to receive — this plan is data only with no phone number.
- For trips longer than seven days, purchase a second eSIM before your first one expires or switch to a standard data plan with extended validity.
- Compress photos before uploading if you want to stretch your daily high-speed allowance further — many cloud apps offer this setting.
