Does Verizon work in Mexico?
Yes. Verizon says all its Unlimited plans, including Simplicity and myPlan, include talk, text and data in Mexico. High-speed data is 2GB a day, then 3G speeds of up to 1 Mbps. Plans without Mexico pay $6 a day for TravelPass.
You probably don't need an eSIM if
- You're on Simplicity, Unlimited Welcome, Unlimited Plus or Unlimited Ultimate, and 2GB a day at high speed is enough.
- You're on Verizon Prepaid's 15 GB, Unlimited or Unlimited Plus plan, which include Mexico at no extra cost.
A travel eSIM helps if
- Your plan doesn't include Mexico, so TravelPass would cost $6 a day: $42 for a week, per line.
- You're on Verizon Prepaid Talk & Text, which needs Prepaid TravelPass for data in Mexico.
- You need more than 2GB in a single day, for example a hotspot for a laptop.
