Do I need to install a different eSIM for each country or region?

Yes, typically you need to install a different eSIM for each country or region you visit. Here’s why:

1. **Local Network Providers**:
– Each country or region usually has its own mobile network providers. An eSIM is linked to a specific carrier’s network, so you may need to obtain a new eSIM for the local carrier in the country you’re visiting.

2. **Coverage and Compatibility**:
– eSIMs are often designed to work within specific regions. A plan from your home country might not provide coverage or may incur high roaming charges when used abroad.

3. **Local Plans and Pricing**:
– Using a local eSIM allows you to take advantage of local data rates, which are often much cheaper than roaming rates from your home carrier.

4. **Multiple eSIMs**:
– Many smartphones allow you to have multiple eSIM profiles installed, enabling you to switch between them as needed. You can download new eSIMs for each destination without removing previous ones, as long as your device supports this.

Options:
– **International eSIMs**: Some providers offer international eSIM plans that cover multiple countries or regions. This can be a convenient option if you’re traveling to several places.

– **Local eSIMs**: For the best value, you can often purchase a local eSIM upon arrival in your destination country.

Always check with your eSIM provider about compatibility and coverage in the regions you plan to visit before traveling.
