Airport kiosk staff will collect the necessary information upon purchase.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1708337251805\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Can I use a SIM card from another European country while in Italy?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>If coming from Europe, your home SIM may support some degree of Italy roaming under EU regulations. However, the costs of roaming data, texts, and calls could be prohibitively expensive. A dedicated Italy SIM usually proves cheaper.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1708337257357\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">How long does an SIM card at Rome Airport take to activate after buying?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Most tourist SIM packages advertise immediate or near-instant activation capabilities once installed in your phone. However, some providers may require up to 24 hours post-purchase for service activation on their networks &#8211; so your connectivity experience can vary.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1708337265072\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">If my phone is locked, can I still use a SIM card at Rome Airport?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Unfortunately no &#8211; a locked phone will not recognize any inserted SIM card lacking the registered network provider configuration demanded by the locking mechanism itself. You must obtain an unlock code from your home carrier to override this restriction before swapping in an Italian SIM.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1708337273919\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Do eSIMs work the same with unlocked phones as regular SIM cards?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Yes, the same requirement applies &#8211; an eSIM requires phone hardware flexibility that locking mechanisms would restrict. So unlocked device status remains prerequisite regardless of whether attempting to activate a traditional embedded carrier profile.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"vi-final-words\">VI.
