eSIM for Russia — 30-day plans 🇷🇺
For trips to Russia spanning 30 days or less — tourism, business, or transit — this eSIM covers the full stay via QR activation. The validity window starts when the plan is activated (first connection to a supported local network). If the trip runs longer, you must purchase a new plan after the current one expires — you cannot extend within the same validity window.

FAQ
Does the 30-day period start when I buy the eSIM or when I first connect in Russia?
It starts when you activate the plan by connecting to a supported network in Russia. Purchase can be done anytime before departure.
Can I use this eSIM for a 2-week business trip and then reuse it on a later visit?
No, the plan runs continuously for 30 days after activation. For a later trip you would need a new eSIM purchase.
What happens if my trip runs over 30 days — can I top up or extend?
There is no top-up or extension for this plan. You must buy a new eSIM once the 30-day window expires.
Is QR activation instant, or do I need to scan the code at a specific time?
The QR is delivered by email as soon as payment is confirmed. It can be scanned at any time before or during your trip, but the 30-day counter starts only upon first network connection in Russia.
Does this eSIM work for transit passengers who only stop in Russia for a few hours?
Yes, it activates on first connection, so even a same-day transit can use it. However, the full 30-day window will still run from that activation.
