eSIM for Svalbard and Jan Mayen — Instant Data Plans

Travelling to Svalbard or Jan Mayen? These Norwegian Arctic territories offer some of the world's most dramatic wilderness experiences, from polar bear encounters and glacier hikes to Northern Lights and midnight sun expeditions. A MobiSIM eSIM for Svalbard and Jan Mayen gives eligible travellers a digital data option without needing a physical SIM card, though connectivity is extremely limited on Jan Mayen and more developed on Svalbard. Whether you are visiting Longyearbyen, Barentsburg, or Ny-Ålesund on Svalbard, or travelling on a research or expedition visit to Jan Mayen, preparing all digital resources thoroughly before departure is essential. Your QR code is delivered by email after purchase, allowing you to install the eSIM before setting out.

Svalbard's mobile network is served by Telenor Norway, with 4G LTE coverage available in Longyearbyen and the immediate surrounding area. Barentsburg, the Russian mining settlement, and Ny-Ålesund research station have their own separate communication infrastructure. The vast wilderness of Svalbard outside Longyearbyen, including glacier areas, national park zones, and the remote northern and eastern parts of the archipelago, has no mobile coverage. Jan Mayen has no civilian mobile network whatsoever, with only a Norwegian military and meteorological presence and communication relying entirely on satellite systems. MobiSIM connects through supported local networks to deliver the best available data in Longyearbyen during your Svalbard stay.
