eSIM data plans for Montenegro

Montenegro's plans come in two shapes: a set amount of data valid for a set number of days, or unlimited data sold by the day. MTEL carries the fixed data plans on 4G and 5G.

Picking a data size

The six fixed data plans run from 1GB over 7 days to 50GB over 30 days, so a short weekend trip and a longer stay call for different sizes. If the data runs out before the days do, a top-up on the same eSIM restores it, so a smaller plan is simply a smaller amount to add to later rather than a dead end. Hotspot and tethering are included on every fixed data plan, so a laptop or second device can share the connection.

Picking an unlimited length

The unlimited plans skip the size question entirely and are sold purely by day, from one day up to 30. Each carries a fair use policy: past a daily amount, speed is reduced for the rest of that day. They suit travellers who would rather settle on a length of stay than estimate a data amount, especially for short trips where tracking usage is one more thing to think about. Hotspot and tethering are included on these too.

Buying ahead of the trip

Both plan types start counting only from the first connection to a network inside Montenegro, not from the moment of purchase or installation. An eSIM bought and installed days before flying loses nothing by sitting ready on the phone until arrival.
