On the live Bulgaria-country ladder, the eligible 10 GB 30-day dest totals this pass are Ubigi $11, Sim Local $11.75, Saily $11.99, Airalo $12 and Yesim $18.34. Dest's cheapest Bulgaria-country 50 GB is Ubigi 30-day at $34 TRAVELCITY10, so the GigSky 180-day out rule stays quiet, yet GigSky still sits outside the ranked list because dest publishes no GigSky Bulgaria-country SKU. Nomad publishes Bulgaria-country 3 GB, 5 GB, 20 GB and 50 GB rows but no 10 GB 30-day country row, so Nomad never enters the 10 GB order. Roamless, aloSIM and ByteSim publish no Bulgaria-country SKU on dest. No two of those 10 GB dest totals match, so named-host tiebreak stays idle. Slot 6 stays empty.

Opensignal's Bulgaria Mobile Network Experience Report (January 2026; data 1 Oct to 29 Dec 2025) covers A1, Vivacom and Yettel. In that report A1 takes the most awards (four outright wins and five shared), Yettel follows with three sole wins and five shared with A1, and Vivacom claims three outright Coverage awards. Those Opensignal lines describe national MNO experience. They do not name a host for any pick on this page.

DataReportal Digital 2026: Bulgaria (GSMA Intelligence figures) records 9.18 million cellular mobile connections active in Bulgaria in late 2025, equivalent to 137 per cent of the population, plus 5.84 million internet users and 87.1 per cent online penetration at the end of 2025, with GSMA marking 98.0 per cent of connections as broadband (3G/4G/5G). Those GSMA connection figures describe the national Bulgarian market only and do not name a host for any pick on this page.

Bulgaria sits inside the EU and the EEA, so a qualifying domestic EU/EEA mobile subscription may carry roam-like-at-home rights while the handset is in Bulgaria, under European Commission roaming rules as they stand. That RLAH path is separate from the prepaid travel eSIM ladder on this page. Bulgaria-country prepaid travel eSIM pricing stays storefront-only. Do not treat a travel-eSIM row as an RLAH substitute.

Romania, Greece, Turkey, Serbia, North Macedonia and Black Sea resort latch stay empty as coverage claims unless that shop names the place. Yesim names Bulgarian cities on its city list. Nomad prints an overseas-territory hedge and does not name those neighbours as Bulgaria-country coverage. Ubigi, Sim Local, Saily, Airalo and GigSky leave those neighbours unnamed as separate coverage on the Bulgaria-country shops this pass. Do not invent a cross-border latch from A1, Vivacom, Yettel, Telenor or mtel presence alone.

The dest 10 GB, 30-day country order among the five ranked picks is Ubigi, Sim Local, Saily, Airalo, Yesim. Once a plan registers on a Bulgarian network, top-ups stay inside that provider's app.

Sofia nights are one input; a daily GB figure for Varna or Burgas Black Sea days, or a Rila trail day with maps and photos, is the other. Put both through Plan Match at /plan-match on this page, or skip ahead to the five ranked Bulgaria-country rows when the total is already known.

Our 5 top picks, ranked. Tap one to jump to the full review.

All 5 compared on the same numbers

“Cheapest per GB” is the best value across a provider’s whole Bulgaria range; the columns after it hold the size fixed so providers are compared like for like. All figures come from live plans, refreshed daily. Host network is the local carrier each provider actually rides — the thing that decides how well an eSIM works away from the coast and the big cities.

Ubigi's Bulgaria Prepaid 10 GB / 30 days product page (cellulardata.ubigi.com Bulgaria 10GB 30-days) names A1 Telekom and Vivacom on the Network(s) coverage block. Partner-list pages are not the cite. Ubigi's Bulgaria 10 GB SKU coverage block stops at Network(s); it never adds a tethering support line, and public Wi-Fi marketing is not a hotspot: yes cite, so hotspot stays empty. Romania, Greece, Turkey, Serbia, North Macedonia and Black Sea resort places stay unnamed as coverage claims on that product page. Europe Prepaid, Europe Extended Prepaid and World / Best World Prepaid are different product lines.

Dest prints Bulgaria Prepaid 10 GB 30-day at $11 with TRAVELCITY10 10% on the live table. That $11 total is both the ranked 10 GB floor among the five and the printed cheapest-at-size 10 GB cell. The same Bulgaria Prepaid line also holds dest's printed 25 GB cell at $19 TRAVELCITY10 and dest's printed 50 GB cell at $34 TRAVELCITY10. Live-table unlimited Bulgaria Prepaid 30-day is $39 TRAVELCITY10 (Fair-use Not published on dest), the cheapest Bulgaria-country unlimited 30-day floor this pass. Dest also prints shorter Ubigi Bulgaria Prepaid rows including 10 GB 7-day at $8 and 3 GB 15-day at $4, both TRAVELCITY10. No dest 5 GB or 20 GB Bulgaria-country 30-day row for Ubigi this pass.

Strengths

Verdict · Bulgaria Prepaid takes the ranked 10 GB floor at $11 on an A1 Telekom and Vivacom Network(s) cite, also owns dest's 25 GB and 50 GB cells, and keeps the country unlimited 30-day floor at $39 while hotspot stays unpublished on that product line.

Sim Local's Bulgaria 10 GB for 30 Days SKU page prints Networks Yettel, Vivacom, A1 and networks_used Yettel, Vivacom, A1. Hotspot and tethering: Yes. Local phone number: No. Coverage copy on that SKU stays inside Bulgaria and does not name Romania, Greece, Turkey, Serbia, North Macedonia or Black Sea resorts as separate coverage. Dest publishes no host table this pull, so the shop/SKU cite seeds an ADD.

Dest prints Bulgaria 10 GB for 30 Days at $11.75 with ATESIM 10%. ATESIM 10% does not apply to unlimited, add-ons, business, sale, Thailand 50 GB, or plans under USD 5.

Dest also prints Sim Local Bulgaria 5 GB 30-day at $6.75 ATESIM, dest's cheapest 5 GB cell, and Bulgaria 20 GB 30-day at $19.50 ATESIM, dest's cheapest 20 GB cell. Shorter dest rows include Bulgaria 1 GB for 3 Days at $2.75 ATESIM and Bulgaria 3 GB for 7 Days at $5 ATESIM. Unlimited Sim Local Bulgaria rows on dest stop at 7-day and 15-day (including Pro variants); ATESIM programme exclusions still cover unlimited. Orange Holiday World rows on dest are regional, not Bulgaria-country ranking floors. No dest 25 GB or 50 GB Bulgaria-country row for Sim Local this pass.

Host networkNot publicly disclosed
CoverageMNO Confirming. Neighbours unnamed.
HotspotNo hotspot restrictions on the shop

Saily's Bulgaria shop Network line prints Reliable connection from Bulgaria's best networks and does not name A1, Vivacom or Yettel as host, so the MNO host stays Confirming / unpublished.

Airalo's Bulgaria shop first-network block names Vivacom (Shows primary network the eSIM uses). Package copy also prints Operates on the Vivacom and Telenor networks in Bulgaria.

Yesim's Bulgaria shop technical specs print Hotspot: Depends on operator. A marketing claim is not enough to mark hotspot as yes. Destinations operators payload on the Bulgaria plan objects names Vivacom (3G/LTE), Telenor (3G/LTE) and mtel (3G/LTE/5G). Coverage city list: Burgas, Dobrich, Pleven, Plovdiv, Ruse, Shumen, Sliven, Sofia, Stara Zagora, Varna, and other cities in Bulgaria. About-page brand mentions are not a carrier cite.

No dest 3 GB, 5 GB, 20 GB, 25 GB, 50 GB or unlimited 30-day Bulgaria-country row for Yesim this pass.

What it actually costs

What Bulgaria data actually costs

Bulgaria travel eSIM prices look random until you convert every plan to one number: the real cost per gigabyte. Here is what that reveals right now.

The cheapest plan at each size, 30 days

DataCheapest providerTotalPrice per GB
50 GBUbigi$34$0.68/GBGet plan ↗🏷 10% off with code TRAVELCITY10
25 GBUbigi$19$0.76/GBGet plan ↗🏷 10% off with code TRAVELCITY10

1 GBUbigi$8$8.00/GBGet plan ↗🏷 10% off with code TRAVELCITY10

Cost per GB rises from $0.68/GB at 50 GB to $8.00/GB at 1 GB. Buying a little more data than you expect to use is almost always cheaper per gigabyte than buying exactly what you need.

The "unlimited" trap

The same words, unlimited for 30 days, cover a wide price range, and most plans slow down after a daily threshold that the label hides.

ProviderUnlimited, 30 daysFair-use cap
Ubigi$39Not publishedGet plan ↗🏷 10% off with code TRAVELCITY10
Maya$49.993 GB/day, then 10 Mbps sourceGet plan ↗🏷 10% off with code ATESIM
Airalo$713 GB/day, then 1 Mbps sourceGet plan ↗
Saily$71.995 GB/day, then 1 Mbps sourceGet plan ↗

Unlimited 30 day plans run from $39 to $71.99, a spread of about 85 percent, for a label that means the same thing on paper. Check the daily cap before you buy, especially if you plan to tether a laptop.

Do not overpay for coverage you will not use

If your whole trip is in Bulgaria, a Bulgaria only plan is far cheaper per gigabyte than a Europe or global plan carrying the same data. Same provider (Nomad), same 50 GB, 30 days:

Nomad planPricePrice per GB
Bulgaria only$45$0.90/GBGet plan ↗🏷 20% off with code ATESIM
Europe$35$0.70/GBGet plan ↗🏷 20% off with code ATESIM
Global$129$2.58/GBGet plan ↗🏷 20% off with code ATESIM

A Bulgaria only plan costs much less per gigabyte than a regional or global plan with the same data. Only pay for the wider plan if you are actually crossing borders on this trip.

The bottom line

Ubigi leads the ranked 10 GB 30-day dest ladder at $11 and also owns the printed 10 GB, 25 GB and 50 GB Bulgaria-country cells plus the country unlimited 30-day floor at $39. Sim Local is second at 10 GB on Yettel, Vivacom, A1 with hotspot Yes, and owns dest's 5 GB and 20 GB floors. Saily is third at 10 GB with Confirming host and unrestricted hotspot on the shop. Airalo is fourth at 10 GB on Vivacom first-network. Yesim is fifth at 10 GB with Vivacom, Telenor and mtel on destinations operators. Slot 6 is empty. Nomad sits outside the 10 GB order with no 10 GB 30-day country row, yet still holds dest's only 3 GB 30-day country floor at $9 ATESIM and prints 20 GB / 50 GB country rows. GigSky is not 180-day-out and still has no dest Bulgaria-country SKU. Maya is out. Roamless, aloSIM and ByteSim publish no Bulgaria-country SKU on dest. Hosts: Ubigi A1 Telekom and Vivacom on the Bulgaria product page; Sim Local Yettel, Vivacom, A1 on the 10 GB SKU; Saily Confirming; Airalo Vivacom first-network (package Vivacom and Telenor; other-networks also Yettel); Yesim Vivacom, Telenor and mtel on destinations operators. Nomad (outside 10 GB order): Vivacom / Yettel on the shop. GigSky: unpublished on the shop. Nomad, Sim Local and Saily print a hotspot yes line. GigSky hotspotBody Unlimited use included. Yesim Depends on operator. Ubigi and Airalo hotspot lines are empty this pass.

Yesim names Bulgarian cities on the city list. Nomad prints an overseas-territory hedge. Ubigi, Sim Local, Saily, Airalo and GigSky leave Romania, Greece, Turkey, Serbia, North Macedonia and Black Sea resort places empty as coverage claims beyond the country label. Bulgaria is inside EU/EEA; RLAH may apply to a qualifying domestic EU/EEA subscription, while travel eSIM rows stay storefront-priced.

Frequently asked questions

Does a Bulgaria-country eSIM cover Romania, Greece, Turkey, Serbia, North Macedonia or Black Sea resorts as separate coverage?

Keep Romania, Greece, Turkey, Serbia, North Macedonia and Black Sea resort coverage empty for every ranked pick unless that shop names the place. Yesim city list: Burgas, Dobrich, Pleven, Plovdiv, Ruse, Shumen, Sliven, Sofia, Stara Zagora, Varna and other cities in Bulgaria; neighbours unnamed. Nomad shop: overseas territories may be excluded; neighbours unnamed as Bulgaria-country coverage. Ubigi Bulgaria product page: A1 Telekom and Vivacom; neighbours unnamed. Sim Local Bulgaria 10 GB SKU: Yettel, Vivacom, A1; neighbours unnamed. Saily: Network line unpublished; neighbours unnamed. Airalo: Vivacom first-network; neighbours unnamed. GigSky: unnamed. Do not invent cross-border coverage from A1, Vivacom, Yettel, Telenor or mtel presence alone.

Can I tether or use a hotspot?

Nomad Bulgaria shop FAQ: Yes, Nomad's eSIMs support tethering / hotspot. Sim Local Bulgaria 10 GB SKU: Hotspot and tethering Yes. Saily shop: No hotspot restrictions or limitations. GigSky shop: hotspotBody Unlimited use included. Yesim specs: Depends on operator. Ubigi Bulgaria 10 GB product page: no tethering support line this pass. Airalo Bulgaria shop retrieve this pass leaves hotspot empty; usage copy about hotspot burning data is not a yes cite.

Which network will I actually use?

Ubigi Bulgaria product page: A1 Telekom and Vivacom. Sim Local Bulgaria 10 GB SKU: Yettel, Vivacom, A1. Yesim destinations operators payload: Vivacom (3G/LTE), Telenor (3G/LTE), mtel (3G/LTE/5G). Airalo shop: Vivacom first-network; package Operates on the Vivacom and Telenor networks in Bulgaria; other-networks also list Yettel. Nomad shop (outside 10 GB order): Vivacom / Yettel (SKU mask_network Vivacom 28403_BG and Yettel 28405_BG). GigSky: unpublished on the shop. Saily: Network line still Confirming with no MNO named. Dest Network Partners line that lists provider brand names is not a shop host. Partner list is not the Ubigi cite. Opensignal A1 / Vivacom / Yettel awards are national MNE results, not a shop host.

Does ATESIM apply on this corridor?

ATESIM programme exclusions still cover unlimited, add-ons, business, sale, Thailand 50 GB, and plans under USD 5. On this corridor dest applies ATESIM to Sim Local Bulgaria capped rows (10%) and Nomad Bulgaria capped rows (20%). Saily and Airalo ranked 10 GB dest rows show no code. Yesim's ranked Bulgaria rows use TRAVELCITY 15% instead of ATESIM. Ubigi's ranked Bulgaria Prepaid rows use TRAVELCITY10 10%.

Why is slot 6 empty when Nomad and GigSky still appear elsewhere?

Eligible Bulgaria-country 10 GB 30-day programme totals this pass run Ubigi $11, Sim Local $11.75, Saily $11.99, Airalo $12, then Yesim $18.34. Nomad has no 10 GB 30-day Bulgaria-country row on dest. GigSky has no dest Bulgaria-country SKU at any duration. The shortlist stops when the eligible 10 GB inventory ends, so slot 6 stays empty rather than padding Maya, Holafly, Nomad or GigSky into a fake sixth pick.

When does the 180-day 50 GB out rule leave GigSky outside the Bulgaria six without removing it for duration?

It only removes GigSky when the cheapest Bulgaria-country 50 GB SKU on dest is a GigSky 180-day row. Dest lists no GigSky Bulgaria-country 50 GB SKU at any duration. The printed 50 GB cheapest-at-size winner remains Ubigi Bulgaria Prepaid 50 GB 30-day at $34 TRAVELCITY10, so GigSky is not 180-day-out. GigSky still sits outside the ranked six because dest publishes no GigSky Bulgaria-country inventory to place on the 10 GB ladder.

Does roam-like-at-home cover a Bulgaria visit?

Bulgaria is in the EU and the EEA. A qualifying domestic EU/EEA mobile subscription may carry RLAH rights in Bulgaria under European Commission roaming rules. That path is separate from prepaid travel eSIM plans on this page, which stay on storefront terms. Do not treat a Bulgaria-country travel eSIM row as an RLAH product.
