VoyageSIM lists an Ireland eSIM with 1 GB for 7 days at CAD $6 and 3 GB for 15 days at CAD $11.50. The plans include data only, not standard cellular calls or SMS.
Dublin Airport, city transit and trips across Ireland
Data can help you navigate from Dublin Airport, retrieve reservations and use public transport apps. Maps and messaging services can work on supported local partner networks.
You may also visit Galway, Cork or Ireland's coastal regions. Reception depends on partner networks, buildings and terrain. Save offline maps before remote trips.
Belfast is not in the Republic of Ireland
Dublin is in the Republic of Ireland. Belfast and the Giant's Causeway are in Northern Ireland, part of the United Kingdom. An Ireland-only eSIM does not automatically cover Northern Ireland.
For a Dublin–Belfast itinerary, check the exact destination list of your plan. A regional Europe eSIM can have different coverage, and the name Europe alone does not prove that the UK is included.
Is 1 GB enough for a seven-day visit?
One gigabyte may cover moderate messages, bookings and map use. Hotspot sharing, streaming and frequent video calls use significantly more data.
Compare total allowance and CAD prices against your Canadian provider's roaming rates. Keep essential documents saved locally in case you lose reception.
eSIM setup and local coverage
Use an unlocked phone that supports eSIM. Instructions arrive by email, and validity rules vary with the plan. After arrival, select VoyageSIM for mobile data.
On a dual-SIM phone, review your Canadian line's roaming and automatic switching settings. Ireland's regulator ComReg provides mobile coverage information.
