Activation: first-usage

This eSIM does not cover Northern Cyprus. If you plan to use your eSIM data for 91 days (accumulated) or more in a 120-day period, you must register your device’s IMEI number on Turkey’s Central Equipment Identification Register (CEIR) and pay a one-time tax. You currently can’t purchase eSIMs in Turkey. For seamless connectivity, please purchase and install your eSIM before you travel.
