Using your eSIM

Why do some websites think I am in another country?

Your internet traffic may exit in another country (the IP location). Most sites work normally; some apps show content for that country.

This happens because many travel eSIMs route traffic through a hub abroad. Each plan shows its IP location in the plan details.

Some services may show prices or language for that country, or ask you to confirm your location.
Some plans for the same destination offer a local IP location. If that matters to you, for example for local banking or streaming apps, compare the IP location of the plans before you buy.

Your physical location for maps and GPS is not affected.
