Activation help
An EID in the list means the phone has an eSIM chip.
A phone locked to its carrier refuses other networks. Ask the carrier to unlock it.
Some models ship without eSIM in certain markets. The list below shows the main ones.
Not sure? Ask the maker or the shop that sold you the phone before you buy a plan.
Most phones with eSIM hold two lines. Your home SIM keeps your number for calls and texts, and the EuropeSIM eSIM carries your data.
Texts such as bank codes still reach your home line. Your home carrier may charge for texts and calls abroad.
How to switch your data line
If the eSIM cannot be made to work, you get your money back.

| How you get it | QR code after payment, before you leave | In a shop, with a passport; foreign visitors first obtain a tax number and complete a biometric check | Already on your phone |

The facts about local SIMs and roaming come from the sources below.
Russia has four national networks: MTS, MegaFon, Beeline and T2. 4G is strong in the cities and along the main roads and rail lines. 5G is available only in test areas in a few cities. The signal is weaker in the remote northern and eastern regions. Russia is not in the EU or the EEA, so EU roaming rules do not apply here.
Here your eSIM connects to VimpelCom (beeline).
