## eSIM for Puerto Rico: common questions

### Will an eSIM work on my phone in Puerto Rico?

Yes, if your phone supports eSIM and is not locked to a carrier. That includes iPhone XS and later, Google Pixel 3 and later, and most recent Samsung Galaxy models. Check the device compatibility page if you are unsure.

### When should I install the eSIM?

Install it before you travel, while you have Wi-Fi. For most plans the validity starts when the eSIM first connects to a network in Puerto Rico, not when you install it. Each plan's details show how long you have to activate it.

### Can I keep my own number and WhatsApp?

Yes. The eSIM is a second line for mobile data only. Your usual SIM stays in the phone for calls and texts, and WhatsApp, iMessage and other apps keep working with your own number.

### What happens if I run out of data?

Plans that support top-ups can be extended from your eSimNest account without installing a new eSIM. Whether a plan can be topped up is shown in its details. Otherwise you can buy a new plan at any time.

### Can I share the connection as a hotspot?

Most plans allow tethering. Plans marked with Hotspot in the list support it; check the plan details before you buy if it matters for your trip.

### How much does an eSIM for Puerto Rico cost?

Plans for Puerto Rico start at $2.64.

### Is there an unlimited eSIM for Puerto Rico?

No plan with unlimited data is listed for Puerto Rico right now. Fixed allowances go up to 5 GB.

### How long is an eSIM for Puerto Rico valid?

Fixed plans are valid for 7 to 30 days from activation.

### Does the eSIM work on 5G in Puerto Rico?

4 of 4 plans support 5G where the local network offers it; the others use 4G/LTE.

### Can I make calls and send SMS with an eSIM in Puerto Rico?

eSIMs for Puerto Rico are data-only. You can still call and message over the internet with apps such as WhatsApp or FaceTime.

### Is a regional plan cheaper than a Puerto Rico plan?

Regional plans that include Puerto Rico cost a typical $5.51 per GB, against $2.42 for plans made for Puerto Rico. A regional plan makes sense if you visit more than one country; for Puerto Rico alone, compare both in the table.
