Skip home-carrier data roaming, SIM swaps, airport kiosk queues, contracts and ID checks. You only need an eSIM-capable, carrier-unlocked phone, with no physical SIM to collect before your trip.
Keep your own number while the eSIM handles data and your usual SIM stays in place. Calls, SMS and bank codes still use that number; WhatsApp keeps it too.
Choose a short plan for a Skopje city break or lakeside stay in Ohrid. Longer plans suit trips combining Lake Prespa, Bitola and walks in Mavrovo National Park.
Get your data plan ready before departure by installing it ahead of time. Connect on arrival instead of starting your trip searching for airport Wi-Fi near passport control.
What it is not: a phone number. For a local number to receive sign-up codes or bookings, add a virtual number next to the data plan.

What customers say
Best virtual number website
Using this site from more than 1 month and everything works perfect till now.. no problem faced.. UI is simple and easy to understand, buying number is fast.. numbers are always fresh and otp comes instantly no waiting time.. I really suggest them best site in 2026
Worked as intended
Well, it worked as intended. It was very easy to use the service, so I can only recommend it. Wish there were help desk to check some questions but regardless it was a satisfactory purchase.
Excellent service. So happy I found it
Excellent service. Works when it works and replaced when it doesnt. Fair pricing and good perks as well.
It definitely works
It definitely works, but it can be confusing if you are not aware of what some of the services do to prevent having multiple numbers. WhatsApp will try to prevent you from making a new number on the same phone. Just have to use another phone to create the account and then you can sign in properly. I was confused why I kept going through so many numbers not working, but it was because I was using the same device that I recently had an account on. I deleted my previous account, but WhatsApp saves your device info for 30 days.
Much more reliable
SMS a little more expensive than other pages, but they are much more reliable, and work.
My experience has been great
My experience has been great because 1001sms has made my job so effortless and a 10 man task feel like a job for just 1.
Great service
Great service, absolute amazin for 3rd Countries who cant use amaing services without phone numbers

I have used number from this site and it worked perfectly. 1001sms is a good choice when it comes to getting number from any country and any service

FAQ
Using an eSIM in North Macedonia: your questions
Dial *#06# and look for an EID, which identifies your phone’s eSIM support. Your phone must also be carrier-unlocked to use this plan.
Yes, you keep your own SIM and number for calls and SMS. Your WhatsApp account can use the eSIM’s data without changing its existing number.
Bank texts go to your own SIM, not this data-only eSIM. Keep that SIM active; receiving texts abroad relies on your home carrier’s service.
Sharing data needs a phone with a hotspot feature and a plan permitting it. This eSIM supplies data only, without a separate phone number.
Your data continues at a lower speed after the daily allowance runs out. North Macedonia day passes reduce speeds to 512 Kbps or 1 Mbps.
You can buy another plan for the extra time in North Macedonia. Pay from your prepaid balance, then use the new QR or activation code.
Select the eSIM for mobile data and turn on data roaming for it. Restart your phone if needed; the plans use vip in North Macedonia.
