Visiting Andorra soon? Make sure to know what to expect when it comes to purchasing an Andorra SIM card.
In this guide, weâll explain where to buy a SIM card in Andorra in person and online. Weâll also discuss prepaid SIM cards and eSIMs if your mobile supports them.
Before you read this guide, you may wonder if you actually need a SIM card in Andorra.
If you donât mind not having Internet, youâll likely find free Wifi in restaurants, shopping malls, and hotels.
That said, if you need data to get around, call a cab, or translate Catalan â you may want to get a SIM card for your travels in Andorra.
Best Andorra SIM Cards
If youâre traveling in Andorra, we recommend using a SIM card from Andorra Telecom, or Airalo. (Iâll get back to Airalo later on, so keep reading to learn more!)
That said, if youâre planning on visiting other countries during your trip to Europe, you might want to make sure to pick an option that offers coverage in other European countries.
How To Buy A SIM Card In Andorra
You can either buy an Andorra prepaid SIM card in person in some international airports, mobile provider stores, convenience stores, or online.
Usually, you can expect higher costs and low data offers at the airport, so we donât recommend buying a SIM card at the airport.
That said, you wonât necessarily find SIM card shops in every airport, so itâs essential to keep this in mind. And, when you see a shop, you might also have limited options.
For this reason, Iâd recommend buying a SIM card directly from the mobile provider store. Note that you may need your passport to buy one.
Although, this means you wonât get data right upon your arrival. So, if you prefer to be connected at all times, you could use an eSIM or purchase a Europe prepaid SIM card online.
Now, letâs take a look at the data plans offered by Andorra Telecom.
Andorra Telecom SIM Cards
Andorra Telecom offers two different types of tourist plans:
- 1 GB, valid for 30 days for EUR 9 ($9.83)
- 3 GB, valid for 30 days for EUR 19 ($20.76)
How To Buy An Andorra Prepaid SIM Card Online
If you wish to have your SIM card ready for your arrival, you could purchase it online or on websites like Amazon.
Youâll find different plans on Amazon. For example, the OneSimCard works in more than 200+ countries and gives you data for $0.01 per MB. Andorra is included.
But there are many other options worth considering, so have a look and make sure the countries you plan on visiting are listed.
Another option is to purchase a prepaid Andorra SIM card on SimOptions.
They currently offer packages that cover Andorra:
- 30 GB, valid for 30 days for $44.90
- 10 GB, valid for 14 days for $49.90
Finally, the last option is to buy an eSIM card for Andorra or, if youâre traveling to multiple countries, an eSIM plan for Europe.
How To Buy An Andorra eSIM Card
eSIM is a new concept that allows you to have a virtual SIM card inside your phone.
If your mobile phone supports eSIM cards â itâs definitely one of the best options to get data in Andorra.
