Prices in USD, checked Nov 9, 2026. Rows marked "Not yet verified" haven't been checked on the provider's own site yet; we work through them each month. How we compare
- * Holafly: Hotspot sharing limited to 1 GB per day
- * Yesim: Speed may be reduced after heavy use (per esimdb)
Not sure you need one? Do I need an eSIM? compares it with roaming, a local SIM and Wi-Fi. Staying a week or more? Our vacation eSIM guide covers plan length and how much data you need.
Keeping your own phone plan? Using your phone in the Dominican Republic covers AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile, Claro and Altice, and data at a Punta Cana resort.
On a cruise stop in the Dominican Republic
Cruise ships call at Amber Cove and Taíno Bay near Puerto Plata on the north coast, at La Romana in the south-east, and at Samaná. Stops are usually one day, so a 3-day plan covers it.
Keep cellular data off while the ship is at sea and switch the eSIM on once you’re ashore. Our Caribbean cruise eSIM guide explains why, and how to cover several islands with one plan. For data at sea, our ship Wi-Fi guides compare each line’s packages with a cruise eSIM: Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Norwegian, MSC and Princess.
Which network will I be on?
The Dominican Republic’s mobile networks are Claro, Altice and Viva. Airalo (its plan is called Acuntel) and Holafly say they use Altice; Nomad says Claro. Other providers in the table don’t always say which network they use; those rows show “Not stated”.
Cruise port or Punta Cana resort?
A Dominican Republic plan covers the whole country, so the same eSIM works at Amber Cove and Taíno Bay on the north coast, at La Romana and Punta Cana in the east, and in Santo Domingo. For a resort week, compare the 7-day and 15-day plans.
If your resort has Wi-Fi, you may only need data for excursions and transfers. Install the eSIM before you fly so it’s working when you land at Punta Cana or Santo Domingo airport.
Common questions
Does an eSIM work in the Dominican Republic?
Yes. Travel eSIMs from Airalo, Nomad, Holafly and others connect to local networks in the Dominican Republic (Claro, Altice and Viva). Your phone must support eSIM and be unlocked.
What’s the cheapest eSIM for the Dominican Republic?
The cheapest verified short plan is Airalo’s 1 GB for 3 days at $6 (checked ). The table above is sorted by price, so the first rows are the cheapest for each trip length.
Does one Dominican Republic eSIM cover Punta Cana and Puerto Plata?
Yes. Plans cover the whole country, so one eSIM works at every cruise port and resort area, wherever its network has signal.
