Gibraltar eSIM: questions travelers ask
02Which networks does the Gibraltar eSIM use?
The plans connect to GibTel. Each plan page lists its networks and whether they offer 3G, 4G or 5G.
03Does EU roaming cover Gibraltar?
No. Gibraltar is outside the EU's Roam Like at Home area, so an EU phone plan may charge roaming there unless your carrier includes it. A prepaid eSIM avoids those charges. VoyaSIM's Europe plans also include Gibraltar, so one eSIM can cover the rest of a European trip.
04Should I get an eSIM or a local SIM card in Gibraltar?
An eSIM is installed before you fly: no shop to find on arrival, no passport registration, and your own SIM stays in the phone for calls and SMS. A local SIM can be cheaper for stays of several months or when you need a local phone number.
05When does my Gibraltar plan start?
At the first connection to a network in Gibraltar, not when you buy or install it. Install at home over Wi‑Fi; the days start counting when you land.
06How do I install the eSIM?
The QR code arrives by email within minutes of payment. iPhone: Settings → Cellular → Add eSIM and scan it. Android: Settings → Network & Internet → SIMs → Add eSIM. It takes about two minutes; the help center has the step-by-step version.
07Do I keep my phone number and WhatsApp?
Yes. The eSIM carries data only and works next to your own SIM, so your number, WhatsApp, iMessage and banking apps keep working. Switch data roaming off on your home SIM so it never bills you abroad.
08Will the eSIM work on my phone?
Yes, if the phone supports eSIM and is carrier-unlocked. Dial *#06#: if an EID number appears, it supports eSIM. iPhone XS, XR and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer and recent Samsung Galaxy phones all do; the help center has the full check.
09Can I use the Gibraltar eSIM as a hotspot?
Yes. Every plan allows personal hotspot and tethering, so a laptop or a travel companion's phone can share the eSIM's data. Shared use counts against the same allowance.
10What happens when the data runs out?
8 of 9 Gibraltar plans can be topped up from My eSIMs; each plan page shows it under “Top-up”. When a plan has no top-up, a second plan installs next to the first. An optional auto top-up refills fixed plans at 90% used and adds days to daily plans before they end. Daily plans get cheaper per day the more days you buy at once.
11Can I get a refund?
Yes, in full within 30 days of purchase, as long as the eSIM was never activated. A technical problem that stops activation is refunded too; write to support with your order number.
12How do I reach support?
Write to support@voyasim.io or use the chat on the site. A person replies within 24 hours, in English.
