Coverage & connectivity.
San Marino is entirely surrounded by Italy (Emilia-Romagna and Marche regions) and benefits from Italian carrier coverage in addition to TIM San Marino's own network. 4G/LTE covers the entire 61 km² territory. The City of San Marino old town (UNESCO) and all three peaks of Mount Titano (Guaita, Cesta, Montale towers) have 4G. The Rimini–San Marino road has 4G throughout. The Murata and Borgo Maggiore commercial areas have 4G. No commercial 5G is deployed by TIM San Marino as of 2025, though Italian 5G from Vodafone can be accessed in border zones near Rimini.
Questions about San Marino
Does this eSIM use Italian or San Marinese carriers?
Both. TIM San Marino is the local carrier. In border areas close to Rimini and the Adriatic coast, your device will also pick up Vodafone Italy and TIM Italy at full 4G strength.
Is San Marino inside the EU?
No. San Marino is an independent republic and not an EU member, though it uses the Euro and has a customs union with Italy. EU citizens can enter without a passport (national ID is sufficient from most EU countries).
Does this eSIM work on Mount Titano?
Yes. All three towers — Guaita, Cesta, and Montale — have 4G. The viewpoints overlooking the Adriatic and the Apennine mountains are all well-connected.
What plug type does San Marino use?
San Marino uses the same plugs as Italy: Type L (Italian 3-pin), Type C (European 2-pin), and Type F (Schuko). Type L is the most common.
How do I get to San Marino?
The most common route is by bus or car from Rimini (30 min). There is no airport in San Marino — the nearest is Federico Fellini International in Rimini.
What is an eSIM?
An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital SIM built into your phone. Instead of a physical card, you scan a QR code and your plan installs instantly — no SIM tray needed.
Is my phone eSIM-compatible?
iPhone XS (2018) and newer, most Android flagships from 2020+, and all Samsung Galaxy S21+ devices support eSIM. Check our compatibility page for the full device list.
How do I install the eSIM?
After purchase, we email a QR code. On iPhone: Settings → Cellular → Add eSIM → Scan QR Code. On Android: Settings → Network & Internet → SIMs → Add eSIM. The whole process takes under 60 seconds.
Can I keep my regular SIM while using this eSIM?
Yes. Most phones support dual SIM (physical + eSIM). Keep your home number for calls and SMS — use Flysimio for data abroad. You control which SIM handles what in your phone Settings.
Does the eSIM include a hotspot (tethering)?
Yes, all Flysimio plans include mobile hotspot at no extra charge. Share your data connection with laptops, tablets, or other devices freely.
What happens when my data runs out?
You can top up data from your account dashboard at any time. Top-ups are applied instantly — no need to buy a new eSIM or wait.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. We offer a full refund within 14 days of purchase. Contact contact@flysimio.com with your order number.
How long is the eSIM valid for?
You have 6 months from your purchase date to activate the eSIM. Once activated, the plan validity period (e.g., 7 days, 30 days) begins counting down.
Will the eSIM work at the airport when I land?
Yes — as long as you installed the eSIM before your flight, it activates automatically when your phone connects to a local network on landing. No Wi-Fi required for activation.
What if the QR code doesn't scan?
If the QR code won't scan, you can enter the activation code manually — we include both in the email. You can also contact our 24/7 support team and we'll resend or manually provision your eSIM.
