In the Faroe Islands, a local physical SIM card is not necessary if you have an eSIM. With an eSIM you can access local data plans and services without needing a plastic SIM card.
Internet speed in the Faroe Islands is quite high, with widespread 4G coverage and even 5G available in some areas. This lets travelers comfortably use online services, including streaming and online gaming.
Not all phones support eSIM, but most modern smartphones, such as iPhone and Samsung Galaxy models, already have this feature. Before your trip, you should check if your device is compatible with eSIM and can work with Vlex eSIM.
Mobile network coverage in the Faroe Islands is generally good, especially in towns and popular tourist areas. However, in remote or rural regions the signal may be limited, which is worth considering when planning hikes or road trips.
Using an eSIM in the Faroe Islands is usually more cost‑effective than international roaming. Local data packages are often cheaper, and you avoid high roaming charges, making eSIM a smarter and more budget‑friendly option for travelers.
