Turkey eSIM — common questions

What travelers ask before flying to Istanbul, Antalya, and beyond.

How much does a Turkey eSIM cost?
DataSIM Turkey plans are all valid for 30 days: 3 GB for $4, 5 GB for $5.50, 10 GB for $8, 20 GB for $13, 50 GB for $27.50, and 100 GB for $49.50 — as low as $0.50 per GB. No contracts or hidden fees, and you can top up anytime in the app.
Is an eSIM cheaper than buying a SIM at Istanbul Airport?
Usually, yes — tourist SIM packages sold at Istanbul Airport kiosks often cost $20–40 and require passport registration. A DataSIM eSIM starts at $4, installs before you fly, and needs no paperwork or queuing.
Does it work on both the European and Asian sides of Istanbul?
Yes — it's one country, one network. Your eSIM works seamlessly across both sides of the Bosphorus and everywhere else in Turkey, from Cappadocia to the Aegean coast.
Do WhatsApp and Google Maps work in Turkey?
Yes — WhatsApp messaging and calls, Google Maps, Instagram, and your usual apps all work normally on your DataSIM eSIM in Turkey, and you keep your existing number.
Can I use my eSIM as a hotspot in Turkey?
Yes, hotspot and tethering are supported on all DataSIM plans, so you can share your connection with a laptop or travel companions.
Does my phone support eSIM?
Most phones from 2019 onward do — including iPhone XS and later, Google Pixel 3 and later, and recent Samsung Galaxy models. Your phone must be carrier-unlocked.
When should I install my Turkey eSIM?
Install it before you travel, while you're on Wi-Fi. The plan only starts when the eSIM connects to a network in Turkey, so installing early costs nothing.
What happens when my data runs out?
Top up instantly in the DataSIM app — no need to install a new eSIM.
