    International Calls

    The Passport SIM Card offers some of the lowest airtime rates available anywhere!

    * Service in this country is currently being tested. The service is operational, but outages due to technical implementation are likely. If reliability of service is required, then we recommend purchasing a local SIM card for this country.

    ** Service in this country is only available if your cell phone supports 3G service.

    Please note: There is a $0.35 USD per minute surcharge when you make a call to a cell phone (does not apply when calling to a US or Canadian cell phone). There is a one-time $0.25 USD connection fee for each outgoing call (from all countries) and for each incoming call (in countries where it is not free to receive calls). Additional surcharges apply when calling certain countries. Please click here for more information.

    This service does not support sending text messages to CDMA phones. Text messages to United States can be sent to AT&T, Cingular and T-Mobile numbers only.

    Your Passport SIM card can roam on multiple networks within a single country.

    For example, in England there are 5 networks and in Italy there are 4 networks. With your Passport SIM card, you can actually switch between these networks to get the best/strongest network and your airtime rate always remains the same. This is a GSM thing (thank the Europeans, seriously) and it is a very powerful feature of global roaming SIM cards for international travel.
