Why use an eSIM in Uruguay?
Uruguay is one of South America's most relaxed and safe destinations, known for the beaches of Punta del Este, the historic quarter of Colonia del Sacramento, and the laid-back capital of Montevideo. A local Uruguay eSIM keeps you connected at local rates throughout your visit without the expensive roaming fees Canadian carriers apply to South American travel.
Common Questions
Does eSIM coverage work across Uruguay?
Coverage is generally strong in Montevideo, Punta del Este, and main tourist areas. Rural interior areas may have weaker signal.
How much data do I need for a Uruguay trip?
A mid-size plan is suitable for most visits covering the coast and main cities.
Does a Uruguay eSIM work in Argentina or Brazil?
No. A Uruguay eSIM covers Uruguay only. For multi-country South American travel, consider a regional plan.
Can I keep my Canadian number while using this eSIM?
Yes, but to avoid any roaming charges, turn your Canadian carrier line off entirely in your phone's cellular settings before you land. Disabling data roaming alone isn't enough on its own, so do not use Airplane Mode, as this disables your eSIM too. Use your eSIM for all data, and use WhatsApp, FaceTime, or iMessage for calls and messages. If you need to receive an OTP or two-factor text, turn your Canadian line on briefly, then off again. When you return home, turn it back on and everything returns to normal.
