From the mountains above Almaty to the tiled squares of Samarkand, from Tbilisi’s old town to the cafés of Yerevan, the region has never been easier to travel — for holidays, for work, for long stays. A connection from the moment you land makes it easier still: a taxi without haggling, a map that knows the addresses, a call home the same evening.
Prices country by country
A month of unlimited data in Kazakhstan starts at $17.99. Uzbekistan: from $20.49. Kyrgyzstan: from $20.49. Georgia: from $21.99. Armenia: from $25.49. Azerbaijan: from $39.49.
Every price is the total for the whole plan — no subscription, no automatic renewal — and every plan gives a daily amount at full speed, then keeps working at the speed printed beside the price.
Several countries on one eSIM
Planning a route through several countries? A Central Asia plan covers more than one country on a single eSIM, from $26.99 for 30 days. Check the country list on the plan page before you buy — and remember that a regional plan is usually cheaper than buying a separate one in each country.
The apps that make the region easy
Yandex Go is the usual way to call a taxi across much of the region, and Bolt is widely used in Georgia. For addresses and public transport, 2GIS and Yandex Maps often know more than Google Maps. Install them at home and sign in while your own number still receives its codes.
Local SIM or eSIM?
For a long stay in one country, a local SIM is often cheaper per month — but it means finding an operator’s shop, showing your passport and waiting for registration. For a trip of days or weeks, or a route across several countries, an eSIM saves that time: you are online in the arrivals hall, and your own number stays on for calls and bank texts.
Banking, streaming and your IP location
Each plan names its IP location beside the price. Some services decide what to show — or whether to work at all — by the country your connection appears to come from, so for banking apps, streaming and AI tools, that one line is worth a look. Our guide on why apps behave differently abroad explains it in full.
Before you go
Install the eSIM at home on wifi — the days start counting only when it first connects at your destination. Keep your own SIM on for bank texts, set mobile data to the eSIM, and download offline maps for the mountain roads, where every network thins out.
