eSIM in Finland
Your Finland eSIM connects to 4 mobile networks, automatically switching to the strongest signal — with speeds up to 5G.
Finland runs on apps. In Helsinki, the HSL app sells metro, tram, and bus tickets, plus the ferry to Suomenlinna. Trains to Tampere, Turku, or Rovaniemi are booked in the VR app, and Wolt delivers food in most cities. Heading north for the northern lights? Aurora forecasts and live maps only work with data. A Finland eSIM keeps everything running from the moment you land, while your regular SIM stays in place for calls and texts.
From Market Square's waterfront to the night train north, your connection is sorted before your plane leaves home.

Staying connected in Finland
Practical advice for using mobile data in Finland.
Save offline maps for Lapland
Signal can drop between towns north of the Arctic Circle. Save offline maps for the Rovaniemi area and wilderness routes before setting out, then let GPS handle the rest.
Buy transit tickets in HSL
Helsinki's metro, trams, buses, and the Suomenlinna ferry all sell tickets through the HSL app. Buying takes a data connection, so grab your ticket on the platform.
Book trains in the VR app
Finland's trains are run by VR, and the app covers tickets, seats, and delay alerts. The Helsinki–Rovaniemi night train fills up in winter, so book early.
Hotspot at the cottage
Renting a lakeside mökki with friends? Turn on your phone's hotspot and share data with the whole cabin — group chats keep working between sauna rounds.
Install before you fly
Set up your Finland eSIM at home on Wi-Fi, then switch it on when you land at Helsinki-Vantaa. Maps and messages work while others hunt for airport Wi-Fi.
