help_outline Frequently Asked Questions

What is EU Roam Like at Home?

Roam Like at Home (RLAH) is an EU regulation that allows you to use your mobile phone in any EU/EEA country at no extra cost — calls, texts, and data are charged at your domestic rate. Since January 2026, it covers 32 countries including Ukraine and Moldova.

Does my phone work for free in Switzerland?

No. Switzerland is NOT part of the EU/EEA and has no mandatory free roaming agreement. Roaming charges apply unless your specific operator voluntarily includes Switzerland in your plan. Always check before crossing the border.

What about UK roaming after Brexit?

After Brexit, UK operators are no longer required to offer free EU roaming. Some operators like O2 still include it, while others charge daily fees. Always check with your specific provider before traveling.

What is a Fair Use Policy for roaming?

Fair Use Policy (FUP) prevents permanent roaming abuse. Your operator may limit how much data you can use abroad at domestic rates. If you exceed it, a small surcharge may apply — but it is capped by EU regulation.

Do Western Balkans countries have free EU roaming?

Not yet fully. The 6 Western Balkans countries have free roaming between themselves since 2021. EU roaming charges are being gradually reduced, with full elimination expected by 2027-2028.

article Understanding Mobile Roaming in Europe

How Roam Like at Home Works

Since June 15, 2017, EU regulation ensures you can use your mobile phone across EU/EEA countries at your domestic rate. Whether you're making calls, sending texts, or using mobile data, there are no roaming surcharges. The zone expanded to 32 countries in 2026 with the inclusion of Ukraine and Moldova.

Common Roaming Traps

The biggest trap for European travelers: Switzerland. Nestled in the heart of the EU, it is NOT covered by free roaming. A single day of casual phone use in Switzerland can generate surprising charges. Similarly, Northern Cyprus uses Turkish networks — not EU-covered. And boats near coastlines may connect to satellite networks at premium rates.

Western Balkans Integration

Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Montenegro, and Serbia eliminated roaming charges between themselves in July 2021. EU-Balkans roaming is being progressively reduced under a landmark agreement signed at the 2022 Tirana Summit, with Montenegro and Albania expected to reach full elimination by end of 2026.

Tips for Travelers

Always check your specific operator's roaming terms before traveling — especially for the UK, Switzerland, and Turkey. Consider an eSIM for non-covered countries. Download offline maps and essential content over Wi-Fi. And watch for border-area network switching — in Luxembourg, your phone may briefly connect to German or French networks, but that's still covered under RLAH.
