Can I use it in nearby countries too?
That depends on the plan — country plans work in that country only, while our regional and global plans cover multiple destinations.

Do I need to install it before I travel or after I arrive?
Before — install on Wi-Fi at home. The plan only starts once it connects at your destination.

Is 5G supported or just 4G?

Will this keep my WhatsApp active with my home number?
Yes. The eSIM handles data while your normal SIM stays active, so WhatsApp keeps your usual number.
