Guide

How SIM and eSIM work for maritime and crew.

Seafarers and yacht crews travel to join a ship, change ships in foreign ports, and go ashore on short leave. Data on those days keeps them in touch with the crew agent, the ship, and home.

01

Where the offer meets the traveler

With the travel itinerary of a crew change, through the port agent at the joining port, at the desk and on the ship visits of a seafarer centre, and with the joining instructions of a yacht.

02

SIM pack or eSIM

Codes go out with the itinerary for phones with eSIM. Phones with only a SIM slot get SIM packs from the port agent or the centre desk. A season gets a new eSIM for each further 30 days and each new area.

03

Who pays

The vessel, the company, or the yacht buys the codes at a partner price and assigns them by crew code. A seafarer centre resells packs at its own price.

04

What to check

The plan works ashore and in port, or near the coast. At sea, the crew uses the ship Wi-Fi. No seafarer names are needed, and some countries ask for an ID check before a SIM sale.
