What is the difference between a Country of Residence IP address and a Regional IP address? 

A Country of Residence IP address is an internet address that matches the country you have selected during your Ubigi’s account creation. It allows you to access geo-restricted content as if you were home.

A regional IP address, on the other hand, provides a more precise location within a specific region or area of the country, offering tailored services based on your local geographic position.

Ubigi eSIM data plans work on eSIM-enabled and network unlocked devices.

To check if your device is eSIM compatible, follow these steps:​

Dial *#06#. If you have an EID code on the screen, your phone is eSIM compatible.

To check if your iPhone/iPad is locked or unlocked by your provider, follow these steps:​

  • Go to Settings.
  • Select General.
  • Choose About/Information.
  • Scroll down to Network provider lock/Carrier lock. You will see either "No SIM restrictions" or "SIM restricted" in this field. Check here what to do if you have "SIM restricted".

To check if your Android device is locked or unlocked, please contact your original carrier. (You can also test using a different carrier in your home country, which is usually not possible with a SIM-locked device)
