Roam freely in the EU

Unlike other major networks, we don’t charge anyone extra for EU roaming, up to 25GB

EU roaming up to 25GB, at no extra cost

Your data (subject to roaming limit), minutes and text allowances will work in our Europe
Zone just like they do at home. That’s because we’re the only major network to include roaming in our Europe Zone as part of our tariffs (up to 25GB).

If your UK monthly data allowance is over 25GB, you'll have a roaming limit of 25GB when roaming in our Europe Zone. This means you can use up to 25GB of your allowance at no extra cost – we'll text you if you're getting close to the limit, and again if you reach it. If you reach the limit, you'll need to buy a data Bolt On. If your UK data allowance is less than 25GB this amount will apply in the EU too.

Have a browse of our best SIM only deals with EU roaming, handsets and more. Join O2 today.

EU Roaming FAQs

EU Roaming is where you can use your phone (or other electronic device) while travelling to countries that are within the European Union, without incurring any extra charges.

Unlike some other networks, with O2 you can roam in the EU freely and easily. Use your devices for calls, texts, and data as you would at home (free up to 25GB) while adhering to fair usage policies and provider-specific terms.

We even won the Best Network for Roaming at the Uswitch Telecom Awards 2023.

At O2, whenever you purchase a Pay Monthly SIM, you'll automatically get free EU Roaming up to 25GB. So whether you're soaking up the sun, or hopping from city to city, we'll keep you connected.

Yes, you do. Our Pay As You Go SIMs include EU Roaming. This means you can use your calls, texts, and minutes as you would at home.

However, this is subject to what country you're travelling to. So make sure to double check before you leave.

Want to know how much data you've used? It's easy. Simply download the My O2 app, log on, and head to My Allowances. Here you can monitor your usage and remaining balance. Stay within your free 25GB allowance to avoid extra costs.

Pack your bags and get ready to hit the skies. We have 48 destinations included in our EU Roaming Zone:

Austria, Azores, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canary Islands, Croatia, Cyprus*, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, French Guiana, Germany Gibraltar, Greece, Guadeloupe, Guernsey, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Isle of Man, Italy, Jersey, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Madeira, Malta, Martinique, Mayotte, Monaco, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Reunion, Romania, Saint Barthelemy, Saint Martin, San Marino, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and Vatican City.

*Not including Northern Cyprus

Yes. While roaming in the EU, we enforce a 25GB limit. If your UK monthly data allowance is over 25GB, you'll have a roaming limit of 25GB when roaming in our Europe Zone.

If you reach the limit, you'll need to buy a data Bolt On. If your UK data allowance is less than 25GB, this amount will apply in the EU, too.

Jet-setting outside of the EU? The good news is, we've got you covered.

With our O2 Travel Inclusive Zone Bolt On, enjoy inclusive data roaming in 27 international destinations. Even if your travels extend beyond our Inclusive Zone, you can opt for our full O2 Travel Bolt On for just £7 per day in certain selected destinations.

No. Free EU Roaming is only available with SIMs for your phone currently. If you have a pay monthly SIM with O2 ​for your tablet, it will only work in the UK.
