Will it work on my phone?

On iPhone: Settings → General → About, and scroll to EID. If there is an EID, your phone takes eSIMs. Every iPhone from the XS (2018) onwards does.

On Android: Settings → About phone → Status, and look for EID. If there is an EID, your phone takes eSIMs. Most Galaxy S20, Pixel 3 and later do.

It also has to be carrier-unlocked. If you bought it outright or your contract is over, it almost certainly is.

And if it turns out yours cannot use it, write to us and you get every cent back.

Coverage

The networks you connect to in Netherlands

  • KPN 5G
  • Vodafone 5G

Your phone picks whichever of these has the best signal where you are, and switches on its own. Nothing to configure.

Coverage and data use in Netherlands

Your phone roams onto the local networks listed above, the same masts a local SIM uses. Coverage is theirs, not ours: where they reach, you do.

What 4G and 5G change in practice

For maps, messaging, email and social media the difference is small — 4G handles all of it comfortably. 5G shows up on large downloads and when uploading video. If a network here is listed as 4G, nothing you normally do while travelling will feel slower.

How much data a day actually costs you

Rough daily figures, the same ones our calculator uses:

Maps, messaging and email100 MB a day
Add social media and browsing300 MB a day
Heavy use, plenty of photos uploaded700 MB a day
Some video on top+250 MB a day
Video most evenings+900 MB a day

So how many GB for a week?

At 300 MB a day a week comes to about 2 GB, which is why the 3 GB pack covers most short trips. Add video most evenings and you are closer to 8 GB for the same week. If you are unsure, the calculator asks five questions and works it out.

Work out my data

The Netherlands is in the European Union, so if you are coming from another European country your own plan already covers data. This eSIM is for visitors from outside the EU. And there is something particular to this country worth knowing before you buy: it is small, and the Belgian or German border is a little over an hour away by train, so a lot of people end up needing the Europe pack rather than this one.

Crossing borders?

One pack, 33 countries

The packs above only work in Netherlands. For about 3 € more these work across all of Europe — same eSIM, nothing to change at the border.

Questions

Travelling to Netherlands, answered

Do I need it if I am coming from Spain or France?

Usually not: EU roaming covers the Netherlands at no extra cost. It pays off if your plan has a small allowance, or if you are staying for weeks.

Which networks will I connect to?

KPN and Vodafone, both on 5G. Your phone picks whichever has the best signal where you are and switches on its own. There is nothing to set up.

I am going to Amsterdam and then Brussels or Cologne. Does this pack work?

No, this one only works in the Netherlands and stops carrying data at the border. Here we will tell you to take the 33-country Europe pack even though it costs €3 to €6 more depending on size: in a country where the border is a long hour away by train, saving that difference usually turns out expensive.

I am only transiting through Schiphol. Do I need this?

If it is a short layover and you are not leaving the airport, probably not: Schiphol has free wifi. If the layover runs to several hours, you head into the city, or you would rather not depend on airport wifi, the 3 GB pack costs 3,99 €.

Who is behind this

A person, not a call centre

Snoozim is run from Barcelona by Ibai Guirado Vera. It exists because paying for roaming by the day on a short trip made no sense. If something goes wrong with your eSIM you write, and the same person who built this answers you, within 24 hours.
