Fewer providers sell Russia than sell the rest of Europe, and the ones that do differ more than usual. Airalo does not sell it at all. Holafly and Nomad sell unlimited plans; MolaHop sells data packages only. Prices below were captured on 17 September 2026 from each provider page, with the link in every row.

On the day of capture Nomad was cheaper than MolaHop at every size we compared, from 5.17 € against 5.99 € at 1GB to 50.86 € against 75.49 € at 50GB. If price per GB is what you care about, that is the honest answer. What we offer instead is buying without an app — website or WhatsApp — and support in Spanish.
Holafly and Nomad do; we do not, because our supplier does not offer one. If you want unlimited data in Russia, this page is telling you to look at them, not at us.
Of the 15 Russia eSIMs we have sold, not one was bought from inside Russia: they were bought from Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Germany, the United Kingdom, Serbia, Thailand, Switzerland and Turkey. That is our own order data. Whichever provider you choose, buy and install before you land — and note that every provider needs internet to install the eSIM.
Our network provider states that our Russia eSIM gets data from landing, without the 24-hour block that Russia applies to foreign cards registering on a local network. We publish that as what our provider tells us. We have not tested how any other provider behaves on that point, so this page makes no claim about theirs.
No. On 17 September 2026 their local eSIM list had no entry for Russia or the Russian Federation. Among the providers compared here, Holafly, Nomad and MolaHop do sell it.
Nomad, on every size we captured on 17 September 2026: 5.17 € for 1GB/7 days, 21.55 € for 10GB/30 days and 50.86 € for 50GB/30 days, against 5.99 €, 23.29 € and 75.49 € at MolaHop.
From Holafly, up to 30 days, and from Nomad, up to 10 days on the day we checked. MolaHop does not sell unlimited for Russia.
We would not count on it: none of our 15 Russia sales was made from inside the country, and installing an eSIM needs an internet connection you may not have on arrival. Buy and install it before you travel.
Russia restricts several services on local networks. Our provider states that our eSIM routes outside the country and gives data from landing; we publish that as their statement. We have not tested the other providers on this, so ask them directly before buying.
