How much eSIM data for 7 days in Singapore?
For 7 days in Singapore with normal daily use, TripUtils estimates 3–5 GB. A 5 GB plan is the usual buffer. Not a live price. MRT, Grab and maps fit the normal band. A two-day layover still needs a plan if you skip hotel Wi‑Fi at Changi. Type G at 230 V matches the UK and the UAE.

Roaming in Singapore on an Austrian plan: what A1 and Drei charge
Singapore is outside EU roam-like-at-home, so the EU data in an Austrian plan does not apply there. Published prices, checked on 22 Oct 2026 (euros incl. VAT):
| Network | Option | Data | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| A1 | Roaming Pass (Zone 2) | per started GB | €5.90 |
| Drei | Roaming-Paket Go | 1 GB, 15 days | €5.00 |
For the 5 GB planning size (7 days), A1’s Roaming Pass would bill 5 × €5.90 = €29.50; on Drei, 5 packages (Go + Go + Go + Go + Go) cover it for €25.00. A1 says the Roaming Pass is switched on automatically for every tariff signed since 24 June 2026, and it blocks roaming data at a default limit of €60, which you can raise yourself.
Magenta prices depend on the tariff — look them up in Magenta’s roaming finder. Older tariffs without these options can cost more. Sources: A1, Drei, Magenta.
Planning size
| Habits | 7-day range | Planning size |
|---|---|---|
| Normal (maps, messages, social) | 3–5 GB | 5 GB |
| Normal + daily video | 7–11 GB | 15 GB |
Assumptions and sources
Light 0.20 / normal 0.50 / heavy 0.95 GB per day, plus optional extras, plus about 20% buffer. No live retail prices.
School holidays lift hotel bands; the city-state is small, so GB still tracks phone habits, not kilometres.
These are planning ranges, not live prices.
Common questions
Is 5 GB enough for 7 days in Singapore?
MRT, Grab and maps fit the normal band. A two-day layover still needs a plan if you skip hotel Wi‑Fi at Changi. Type G at 230 V matches the UK and the UAE. The 3–5 GB estimate plus buffer lands on 5 GB. Hotel Wi‑Fi is not counted. Streaming video on mobile is the usual reason to go larger.
Should I roam in Singapore instead?
Singapore is outside EU roaming. As of 22 Oct 2026, A1’s Roaming Pass bills €5.90 per started GB there (zone 2) and Drei sells 1 GB for €5, valid 15 days. Compare that with an eSIM quote for the same GB.
