Faroe Islands eSIM FAQs
The eSIM activates when you touch down in Faroe Islands - if you’ve already installed it, it should connect automatically.
Installing while already in Faroe Islands works too; it will start as soon as you complete setup.
If you experience connection issues, check our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or reach out to our support team.
No, your plan only starts upon landing in Faroe Islands. Installing beforehand ensures you’re ready to go as the activation will happen automatically.
You’ll need WiFi for installation, so do it before departure and this way you will be connected as soon as you arrive.
If you run into any issues, our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide can help, or contact us directly.
Your eSIM will activate automatically once you arrive in Faroe Islands. We advise installing your Faroe Islands Travel eSIM before you travel (installation is distinct from activation).
To install, just scan the QR code we send or install via the ZenSim app over WiFi. On landing in Faroe Islands, the eSIM will switch on by itself.
If you have any problems, check our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or contact us 😊
No, our Faroe Islands travel eSIMs do not include any phone number - they strictly provide internet data. For calls, use data - driven apps such as WhatsApp, Signal, or Facetime.
Yes it can. Nearly all ZenSim eSIMs support top ups inside the app. You can boost your data, add extra days, or attach a new country to the same eSIM from the Zen Garden in only a few steps.
Just log into the app, open the Zen Garden, and you’ll find the top up control ready to use.
If you're travelling longer than 30 days, you can purchase multiple top ups in advance. They only activate once the current plan finishes, so nothing overwrites your existing eSIM.
If your trip includes several destinations, many of our eSIMs support multi country top ups. For example, you can add Dubai to a Europe eSIM and it will activate the moment you arrive without reinstalling anything.
Our Faroe Islands travel eSIMs are purely data - no native voice or SMS services are included. If you need calling, use an internet - based app like WhatsApp or Skype over your data connection.
Yes - ZenSim’s eSIMs work in 200+ countries, and Faroe Islands is included. For travellers needing multiple-country access, we offer regional eSIMs. You can find those on our Travel eSIMs page.
Network & Data Issues: If your eSIM is refusing to work, check out our eSIM troubleshooting guide. For personalized help, send us a message and we’ll jump on it.

Absolutely! You can install your Faroe Islands travel eSIM up to 30 days before departure. Installing early means it will automatically activate once you land.
Rest assured, installing before you leave won’t start your data or count down your plan days until you arrive in Faroe Islands.
If you see an activation error on iPhone when installing before arriving, you can ignore it-learn more in our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide.
Absolutely - using a travel eSIM beats roaming in Faroe Islands for several reasons:
Cost Efficiency: Our Faroe Islands local data rates are much cheaper than pay-as-you-go roaming fees.
Instant Activation: No need to wait for a SIM card; your eSIM goes live as soon as you land.
Data Visibility: Monitor exactly how much you’ve consumed, so there are no hidden surprises on your bill.
After activation in Faroe Islands, your eSIM won’t usually work elsewhere. Each country typically needs its own eSIM unless you're using a regional one.
To make travel easier, try one of our regional Travel eSIMs - they work across entire continents.
