Arriving in Georgia with data
Most international arrivals land at Tbilisi International (TBS). Install your Georgia eSIM on Wi-Fi before you fly and it connects as you taxi to the gate, so maps and messages work before you reach passport control.
For transport, travelers rely on Bolt and Yandex Go. Your eSIM coverage follows the places people actually go, from Tbilisi, Batumi and Kazbegi to the roads between them.
The main language is Georgian, so a camera-translate app is worth having on mobile data. Prices are in Georgian lari, and your bank's one-time codes still arrive on your home SIM.
Before you travel
- Mountain roads to Kazbegi and Svaneti have signal in villages but gaps between them, so download maps in Tbilisi.

eSIM, local SIM or roaming: what works best in Georgia
| Feature | Best for most tripsLinkPaLS eSIM | Local SIM card | Home roaming |
|---|---|---|---|
| Set up | At home, before you fly | On arrival, at a shop or kiosk | Already on |
| ID needed | None | Usually a passport | None |
| Your home number | Stays on | Removed while the SIM is out | Stays on |
| Cost | Fixed, paid once | Low, but only after arrival | Often the most expensive |
| Best for | Most travelers | Long stays with a local number | Very short emergency use |
Roaming is the easy option and usually the priciest. A local SIM is cheap but costs you an hour on arrival. The eSIM sits in between: set up at home, priced like local data.

Georgia eSIM questions
Still unsure? Email support@linkpals.store and a person replies.
Which eSIM is best for Georgia?
One that matches your days and leaves some data spare. A country plan is usually the better deal for Georgia alone; if the trip continues across borders, a regional plan is simpler.
Does the eSIM work in Batumi and Kazbegi?
Yes. Your Georgia eSIM covers Georgia wherever partner networks reach, including Tbilisi, Batumi and Kazbegi. Expect slower data or gaps in remote areas, as with any network.
Will my eSIM work when I land at Tbilisi International?
Yes. If you install it before your flight, it connects once you land and switch off airplane mode. Turn the line on and allow data roaming for it.
Can I use my eSIM as a hotspot in Georgia?
Yes. LinkPaLS plans allow tethering, so you can share data with a laptop or a travel partner. Hotspot use drains data faster, so size up your plan.
Do I pay for the eSIM in Georgian lari?
No. The plan is charged in US dollars at checkout, one time. Georgian lari is only for what you spend on the ground in Georgia.
How do I get around Georgia with my eSIM?
Most visitors use Bolt and Yandex Go. Live maps and booking apps run on your travel data, so you can share your location or check a route on the move.
Is there any catch with a travel eSIM for Georgia?
Three things to know: the phone must be unlocked and eSIM-ready, a QR code usually installs once, and plans are data-only, so calls go through internet apps.
Will WhatsApp keep working in Georgia?
Yes, with the same number and chat history. WhatsApp only needs a data connection, and the eSIM provides it.
