Networks in Montenegro
Cheaper than Croatia for a regional traveller now — and the reason is not distance
Montenegro is not in the EU but uses the euro, and it is in the Western Balkans roaming agreement. For a visitor from Serbia or Bosnia that means a reduced rate, and it is why Montenegro now costs less than Croatia — Croatia left that agreement when it joined the union.
For a visitor from the EU it works the other way: roam-like-at-home does not apply and you pay full roaming.
Coverage is dense along the coast from Herceg Novi to Bar, and around Podgorica. What surprises people is how fast it thins the moment you turn north — the Tara canyon, Durmitor and the Accursed Mountains are places where the signal stops at the mouth of the canyon rather than fading. If the mountains are on the plan, download the map in Žabljak.
Montenegro eSIM: questions
When does the plan start counting?
From the first connection to a network in Montenegro, not from the moment you buy it. Install at home, activate after you land.
Do I get a phone number in Montenegro?
No. Plans here are data only: use messaging and calling apps over data.
Can I use it as a hotspot?
Yes. Hotspot is included, so a laptop or a second phone can share the data.
What if I run out of data?
Top up the same eSIM with another data plan, any time.
