## Getting online in Greenland

Most international arrivals land at Nuuk Airport (GOH) and Kangerlussuaq (SFJ). Install your Greenland 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.

Getting around usually means local flights and boats (there are no roads between towns). Your eSIM works across the country, including Nuuk, Ilulissat and Kangerlussuaq, wherever partner networks reach.

The main language is Greenlandic and Danish, so a camera-translate app is worth having on mobile data. Prices are in Danish krone, and your bank's one-time codes still arrive on your home SIM.

### Connectivity notes for Greenland

- Signal is limited to towns and settlements. Expect no coverage on the ice sheet or on boat trips between fjords.

## Best eSIM for Greenland: which plan to pick

Count the days first, then add a buffer. Messaging and maps use little, but photo backups, video calls and streaming eat through data quickly, so pick one size up if you're unsure.

## eSIM vs local SIM vs roaming in Greenland

|  | LinkPaLS 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 Greenland eSIM sits in between: set up at home, priced like local data.

## Set up your travel eSIM in minutes

### Set up your eSIM for Greenland in three steps

1. **Choose your plan.** Decide how many days you'll be in Greenland and how heavily you use data, then pick the plan that covers both. Not sure about your phone? See [compatible phones](https://linkpals.store/compatible-devices).
2. **Install before you fly.** Do this the day before you leave: scan the QR code from your account while on Wi-Fi, then leave the new line turned off for the flight.
3. **Connect on arrival.** When you land in Greenland, turn the LinkPaLS line on, set it as your mobile data line and switch on data roaming for that line. See [how to activate eSIM](https://linkpals.store/help).

## Reasons travelers pick a Greenland eSIM

- **Share your data.** Turn on hotspot for a laptop or a travel partner.
- **Ready for Ilulissat and Kangerlussuaq.** Maps, tickets and translation work as you move between them.
- **Keep your physical SIM safe.** It stays in the phone, so there's no tiny card to lose in a hotel room.
- **Pay in Danish krone without surprises.** Card apps and banking alerts keep working, so you can watch every charge.
- **Online at the airport.** No SIM kiosk, no queue, no swapping cards when you arrive in Nuuk.

Going on to the USA, Canada and Bermuda? A regional plan keeps one eSIM working across borders, so you don't switch lines at every stop.

## Frequently asked questions

### Which eSIM is best for Greenland?

The best eSIM for Greenland covers your whole trip with enough data. For Greenland alone, pick a country plan; for several countries, a regional or global plan saves switching. Compare the current plans at the top of this page.

### Does the eSIM work in Ilulissat and Kangerlussuaq?

Yes. Your eSIM covers Greenland wherever partner networks reach, including Nuuk, Ilulissat and Kangerlussuaq. Remote areas may drop to slower speeds or lose signal.

### Will my eSIM work when I land at Nuuk Airport?

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 buy an eSIM for Greenland before I travel?

Yes. Install it a few days ahead on home Wi-Fi and leave the line off. The validity period usually starts when the eSIM first connects in Greenland, not when you buy it.

### Will WhatsApp keep working in Greenland?

Yes. WhatsApp stays linked to your home number on your physical SIM and uses your LinkPaLS data to send and receive.
