Skip home-carrier data roaming, contracts, ID checks and airport kiosk queues. You need only an eSIM-capable, carrier-unlocked phone, with no physical SIM to collect or swap for your trip.
Keep your own number while the eSIM handles data only. Your usual SIM stays in your phone for calls, SMS and bank codes, while WhatsApp keeps your existing number.
Choose a short plan for a Port Vila break on Efate. Longer plans suit island-hopping trips that take you onwards to Tanna and Espiritu Santo without rushing your itinerary.
Arrive with your profile installed before departure, ready to connect in Vanuatu. You can try connecting before passport control instead of making airport Wi-Fi your first task after landing.
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.
How it works
Land in Vanuatu already online
Set it up on Wi-Fi the night before. The eSIM waits quietly until you arrive.
2
Pay and scan the QR code
Pay from your balance and get the QR code at once.
3
Turn it on when you land
Turn on data roaming and it finds a network itself.

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's good
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

You need an eSIM-capable, carrier-unlocked phone for Vanuatu. Dial *#06# to look for an EID, which identifies your phone’s eSIM hardware.
Yes, you keep your own SIM and number for calls and SMS. WhatsApp keeps your existing number while your Vanuatu eSIM supplies data.
Your usual SIM receives SMS codes, not your Vanuatu data eSIM. Keep that SIM turned on; receiving codes relies on your home service.
