FAQs about the Istanbul eSIM
Will my eSIM work the moment I land in Istanbul?
Install your Teraroma Turkey eSIM at home before you fly. The plan starts when your phone first connects to a local network in Turkey, as long as the eSIM line and data roaming are switched on.
Which networks does the Istanbul eSIM use?
Our current Turkey plans connect to Vodafone, Avea/Türk Telekom. The network your phone picks depends on the plan and local signal.
Do I need a separate eSIM for other cities in Turkey?
No. Turkey plans are country-wide, so the same eSIM works in Istanbul and anywhere else the local networks cover.
Can I keep my home number while using a Istanbul eSIM?
Yes. Teraroma eSIMs are data-only and run alongside your home SIM, so calls and SMS to your usual number keep arriving.
What if I need more data while I'm in Istanbul?
Top up your existing eSIM from the Teraroma top-up page. You don't need to install a new eSIM mid-trip.
