Plans
We offer five plans, so you can match your data to your trip. Every plan is a prepaid package with a fixed data allowance and a fixed validity period. Prices are shown in your own currency in the store.
| Plan | Data | Validity |
|---|---|---|
| Latvia 1GB 7Days | 1 GB | 7 days |
| Latvia 3GB 15Days | 3 GB | 15 days |
| Latvia 5GB 15Days | 5 GB | 15 days |
| Latvia 10GB 30Days | 10 GB | 30 days |
| Latvia 20GB 30Days | 20 GB | 30 days |
For a weekend city break, the 1GB plan covers maps, messages and light browsing. For one to two weeks, the 3GB or 5GB plan is a comfortable middle ground, especially if you stream music or share photos.
For long stays, remote work or heavy use, choose the 10GB or 20GB plan. If you are searching for latvia esim unlimited data, note that our plans have fixed allowances rather than unlimited use, and the 20GB option is the largest.
Coverage and Speed in Latvia
Connectivity in Latvia is generally strong in the places visitors go most. You can expect 4G/5G where available in Riga, Jūrmala, Liepāja, Daugavpils, Cēsis, Sigulda and Ventspils. Main roads and larger towns are normally well served too.
Speeds depend on your location, network load and phone model, so treat any figure you hear as a rough guide. In the city centre and at the airport you should find a reliable connection for everyday use.
Rural areas need a little planning. In forests, national parks such as Gauja, and remote stretches of the coast, the signal can weaken or drop. Before heading out, download offline maps and any playlists or documents you need. If you are staying in a countryside guesthouse, ask whether Wi-Fi is available as a backup.
A Latvian esim connection works best when you let your phone choose the network automatically, so leave automatic network selection switched on.
How to Install and Activate
Setup takes only a few minutes. Do it on Wi-Fi before you travel so you are ready when you land.
- Choose your plan and buy Latvia esim from our store.
- Check your email for the QR code and installation details.
- Scan the QR code before departure. On iPhone, go to Settings, then Mobile Service, then Add eSIM. On Android, go to Settings, then Network and internet, then SIMs, then Add eSIM (menu names vary by brand).
- Label the new line something clear, such as "Latvia", and keep your home SIM for calls and texts.
- When you arrive, select the Latvia eSIM as your mobile data line and turn on data roaming for that line only.
- Open a browser or map app to check that the connection works.
To avoid unwanted charges, turn data roaming off on your home SIM line. If the connection does not start, restart your phone and check that the eSIM line is switched on.
