Good to know in Spain
Facts from official sources and the press, each with the date we last checked it.
EU visitors already roam at home prices
Under the EU’s roam-like-at-home rules, customers of operators in EU countries, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway use calls, texts and data in Spain at domestic rates, within fair-use limits. Plans from other countries are not covered, and the EU warns that roaming outside the scheme can be expensive. A travel eSIM is mainly relevant for visitors from outside this area.

Orange and MásMóvil now form one operator
Orange Spain and MásMóvil combined their Spanish businesses on 26 March 2024 in a joint venture, MasOrange, which Orange described as Spain’s leading operator by number of customers, with more than 37 million broadband and mobile lines. Our Spain plans list Orange and Movistar, as shown in the network table on this page.
5G reaches 99% of Spain’s population
Spain’s 2025 broadband coverage report, presented by the government in May 2026, puts 5G coverage at 99.27% of the population and 96.13% in rural areas. Our Spain plans list 5G for Orange and Movistar; speed also depends on your phone.

Madrid Metro: mostly 4G, 5G just starting
In January 2026, Xataka Móvil reported that Madrid’s Metro still relied on 4G. 5G was then live only at Sol station, on MasOrange, which planned to cover the whole network before the end of 2026; Movistar planned 5G at Sol from late January and at more stations during the year. The tunnel infrastructure is run by Metrocall, owned by Cellnex and Metro de Madrid.
Spanish prepaid SIMs are registered to an ID
Under Spain’s Law 25/2007, mobile operators selling prepaid cards must keep a register of each buyer’s identity, recording name, nationality and the type and number of the identity document. A SIM bought in a Spanish shop therefore needs an ID document such as a passport. A Voyafi eSIM is a data-only line bought online: no shop visit and no Spanish number.

Spain eSIM: common questions
- How much does an eSIM for Spain cost?
- Plans for Spain start at $2.13 for 1 GB valid for 1 day. The largest gives you 50 GB for 30 days at $36.55. Prices are in US dollars and are the final amount you pay.
- Which mobile networks does the Spain eSIM use?
- In Spain the plans run on Orange and Movistar. Your phone connects to whichever is available where you are.
- Does the Spain eSIM support 5G?
- Yes. 5G is listed for Orange and Movistar. You get it where the local network has 5G coverage and your iPhone supports 5G; elsewhere the eSIM uses the fastest network available.
- Can I use the same eSIM in other countries?
- The plans on this page work in Spain only. If your trip continues, the Europe plan covers Spain and 34 other countries on one eSIM, from $2.24.
- When does my Spain plan start?
- When the eSIM first connects to a network in Spain, not when you buy it — so you can install it at home before you travel.
- Does the Spain eSIM give me a local phone number?
- No. These plans are data-only: mobile internet, not a local phone number, and no calls or SMS. Your usual number stays on your iPhone.
- How do I buy a Spain eSIM?
- On this website or in the Voyafi app: pick Spain, choose a plan and pay once. You confirm your phone supports eSIM before you pay, then install the plan with one tap.
- I live in the EU. Do I need an eSIM for Spain?
- Usually not for normal use: under the EU’s roam-like-at-home rules, your home plan works in Spain at domestic rates within fair-use limits, and the same applies to plans from Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway. A travel eSIM can still help if your plan’s roaming allowance is small; check your operator’s terms first.
- Do I need to show a passport for a Spain eSIM?
- Not for a Voyafi eSIM: you buy it online and install it yourself, without visiting a shop. Spanish prepaid SIMs work differently: under Law 25/2007, operators must record the identity of every prepaid buyer, so shops in Spain ask for an identity document.
- Is there 5G on the Madrid Metro?
- Only in a few places so far. According to Xataka Móvil in January 2026, MasOrange had 5G at Sol station and planned to cover the whole network before the end of 2026, while Movistar planned 5G at Sol from late January; elsewhere the Metro relied on 4G.
