How do I get my device ready to use outside the US?
Before you use your device while traveling, make sure your device's roaming is turned on. Roaming must be on so your device can connect to cellular networks in your destination country.
For instructions to turn roaming on and off:
- Visit Let's Troubleshoot Your Devices.
- Enter your device in the search field under Filter (e.g., “Samsung” or “S23”, etc.) and choose your device.
- Select Troubleshoot under the device’s name on the device tile.
- In the Search Another Issue field, type “Turn data roaming on or off.” Follow the instructions for your device.

- In Additional Services, scroll to International Plans and then add new plan.
- Text: Add TravelPass anytime, anywhere by texting Travel to 4004.

How will I be charged for using my device when I travel abroad?
How you're charged depends on whether or not you add an international plan to your account for your trip.
Our international plans let you use your phone in more than 210 countries and destinations outside the US:
- TravelPass: You can use your domestic plan's talk, text and data allowances just like you do at home. And you're only charged for days that you use your phone. Learn more by visiting our TravelPass FAQs. TravelPass charges are:
- $5/day in Canada and Mexico* (You won't be charged if your domestic phone plan already includes calls, texts and data in Canada and Mexico).
- $10/day in other countries.
- $100 International Monthly Plan: Ideal for trips of 10 days or more. Get unlimited data* and texts and 250 minutes for international use.* 20 GB of high speed data and unlimited data at 3G speeds thereafter. You can choose to have the allowance expire after 1 month or have the plan renew every month until you remove it from your account.
- In-flight Daily Pass and Cruise Daily Pass: Keep your phone connected to cellular data on an international flight and on board a cruise ship. In-flight Daily Pass is $20/day per line. Cruise Daily Pass costs $30/day per line.

Important:
- If you don't choose an international plan you'll pay per minute, per text and per MB of data used (called Pay as You Go) when you're abroad. Learn more on our International Travel page.
- Our Unlimited Ultimate mobile phone plan includes high-speed international data, talk & text.
- TravelPass and our Monthly International Plan can't be used in non-covered countries, on cruise ships or airplanes.
*If more than 50% of your talk, text or data usage in a 60-day period is in Canada or Mexico, use of those services in those countries may be removed or limited.
