Malta eSIM FAQs
Data and plan days only kick in when you arrive in Malta. Installing earlier just prepares it for activation which happens automatically when you arrive in Malta.
Install over WiFi before your trip to get connected from the minute you touch down.
If you have trouble connecting, see our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or message us for assistance.
Definitely! ZenSim supports eSIM usage in over 200 countries, so Malta is covered. If you need multi-country coverage, take a look at our regional eSIM options on the Travel eSIMs page.
No - our Malta travel eSIMs are data - only, so they don’t come with a voice line or phone number. Any calls or texts must go through internet apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, or Viber.
Connection Issues: If you’re experiencing trouble connecting, start with our eSIM troubleshooting guide. If all else fails, reach out to us and we’ll sort it out quickly.
Installation Support: Struggling to install your eSIM? Check out our step-by-step installation article - or contact support directly and we’ll walk you through it.

Your eSIM will activate automatically once you arrive in Malta. We advise installing your Malta Travel eSIM before you travel (installation is distinct from activation).
To install, just scan the QR code we send or install via the ZenSim app over WiFi. On landing in Malta, the eSIM will switch on by itself.
If you have any problems, check our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or contact us 😊
Of course. Open the ZenSim app and log in. From there, you can choose to top up your eSIM with additional days or gigabytes.
Just select the top-up plan you need (for example, another 30 days or a plan of 10GB) and complete your purchase - it’s instant.
Your Malta eSIM is designed for use within Malta, so once it's been activated there, it won’t work in other countries.
If you're visiting multiple destinations, a better option might be one of our regional Travel eSIMs that cover entire regions like Europe or Asia.
Absolutely - using a travel eSIM beats roaming in Malta for several reasons:
Cost Efficiency: Our Malta local data rates are much cheaper than pay-as-you-go roaming fees.
Instant Activation: No need to wait for a SIM card; your eSIM goes live as soon as you land.
Data Visibility: Monitor exactly how much you’ve consumed, so there are no hidden surprises on your bill.
Our Malta travel eSIMs are purely data - no native voice or SMS services are included. If you need calling, use an internet - based app like WhatsApp or Skype over your data connection.
Yes! Your Malta eSIM can be installed as early as 30 days before you travel. It won’t start until you touch down in Malta.
Installing beforehand means no setup stress on arrival, and it won’t use any data or days until you land.
If you get an activation warning on iPhone when installing before arriving, that’s normal - check our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide for details.
Your Malta eSIM will start working the moment you land in Malta-it auto-activates if installed prior to departure.
If you install it after arrival, it will connect immediately.

Top 3 things to do in Malta
Explore the Ancient Streets of Valletta
The capital city of Valletta is a UNESCO World Heritage Site packed with history, stunning architecture, and breathtaking sea views. Wander through narrow cobblestone streets, admire the ornate balconies of old limestone buildings, and explore the Grandmaster’s Palace and St. John’s Co-Cathedral, home to Caravaggio’s masterpiece. Don’t miss the Upper Barrakka Gardens, offering one of the best panoramic views of the Grand Harbour. With its mix of Maltese, Italian, and British influences, Valletta is a fascinating city that blends history with modern charm.
Swim in the Crystal-Clear Waters of the Blue Lagoon
The Blue Lagoon on Comino Island is one of Malta’s most famous natural wonders, known for its turquoise waters, white sandy seabed, and stunning cliffs. Perfect for swimming, snorkelling, and sunbathing, this picturesque spot attracts visitors looking for a slice of paradise. Rent a kayak or take a boat trip to explore nearby sea caves and hidden coves. The lagoon is busiest during the summer months, so arriving early or visiting in the late afternoon allows you to enjoy its beauty with fewer crowds.

Malta is home to some of the oldest free-standing structures in the world, predating even the Pyramids of Egypt. Sites like Ħaġar Qim, Mnajdra, and Tarxien Temples offer a fascinating glimpse into Malta’s prehistoric past. These megalithic ruins, built over 5,000 years ago, remain shrouded in mystery, with their intricate carvings, astronomical alignments, and massive limestone blocks. Whether you're a history enthusiast or simply curious about ancient civilisations, these temples are a must-see when visiting Malta.
