Colombia eSIM — Bogotá, Medellín and Cartagena
A BellRoam Colombia eSIM gives you mobile data across Colombia without buying a SIM on arrival. Receive the QR code by email, install it before you fly and switch it on when you land in Bogotá or Medellín.
Network and coverage
| Network | Claro |
| Strong coverage | Bogotá, Medellín, Cartagena, Cali, Santa Marta and the coffee region towns |
| Weaker spots | Tayrona park, the Lost City trek, the Amazon and remote islands |
The network shown on each plan is the one your eSIM connects to.
Which plan should I choose?
- Cartagena and Medellín: maps, messaging, ride-hailing and social media fit in a small total-data plan.
- Two weeks across the country: choose a mid-size plan if you navigate all day, upload photos or share a hotspot.
- Remote work or lots of video: pick the largest plan and use Wi-Fi for big downloads.
eSIM, local SIM or roaming?

Tips for Colombia
