Opera launched a travel eSIM feature inside its Android browser on September 29, 2026. The feature lets users buy and install a data-only eSIM from within the browser, without a separate app, and the connection works across all apps on the phone.

Opera said the service is powered by Holiday.com and supports 47 destinations: Albania, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Egypt, Estonia, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Malta, Montenegro, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Korea, Spain, Sri Lanka, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Türkiye, the UK, and the US. Where local carriers offer 5G, the eSIM connects to 5G; otherwise it uses the best available network.

Opera is offering 3GB of free data valid for three days without requiring payment details or an email address. The free offer is available to users located in the US, the UK, Germany, France, Canada, the UAE, Brazil, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, and Poland. The three-day validity starts when the eSIM first connects in the destination country, and users have up to one year from purchase to activate it.

The service requires a carrier-unlocked phone with eSIM support, Android 10 or later, and the latest version of Opera for Android. Opera said the feature is not available in Opera Mini or Opera GX. After the included data runs out, users can buy top-ups of 3GB, 5GB, or 10GB in the same eSIM section, with pricing shown in local currency by destination.
