Our verdict
DNA suits travellers on short trips who already hold a DNA subscription and want a carrier's own roaming rather than a travel-only eSIM, with Reissudata packages starting at €19.90. Coverage spans 95 countries, and top-ups are available, but the packages are metered rather than unlimited.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Reissudata packages start at €19.90, and top-ups are available for heavier use.
- Travel data covers 95 countries and runs on partner networks such as Telenor, Vodafone, Orange and T-Mobile.
- Support runs on email, chat and phone, so a phone call is an option when roaming abroad.
Cons
- Unlimited data is no, so streaming and heavy use abroad run on metered packages.
- The reference plan prices cap the number of packages per month and put a default roaming balance cap on each billing period.
- The entry price of €19.90 is a bigger outlay than $0.99 from eSIMGo.is for a light top-up.
Who it suits
- Travellers on short trips who already subscribe to DNA and want travel data added to an existing plan.
- Holidaymakers heading to the US, Europe outside the EU and EEA, the UK, Japan, Thailand, Turkey or Mexico for a couple of weeks.
- People who prefer a carrier's own network to a travel-only eSIM and like having a phone option for support.
Who should look elsewhere
- Travellers who want the widest country list, since Zwitchy covers 200 countries next to DNA's 95.
- Shoppers buying the smallest possible top-up, who may find $0.99 from eSIMGo.is a lighter entry than €19.90.
- Anyone who needs unlimited data, because unlimited data is no here; SimToIsrael at $25 is the listed option for a fixed single-destination spend.
Price per GB and validity
Reissudata packages start at €19.90. The reference plan prices hold one set rate per GB across the US, Europe outside the EU and EEA, the UK, Japan, Thailand, Turkey, Mexico and other Reissudata countries, and each package is valid for a short window rather than a full month. You can buy a limited number of packages per month, and a default roaming balance cap applies per billing period.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a DNA travel data package cost?+
Reissudata packages start at €19.90. The reference plan prices set one rate per GB across the US, Europe outside the EU and EEA, the UK, Japan, Thailand, Turkey, Mexico and other Reissudata countries. Top-ups are available, so a longer stay can be topped up as you go.
How long does the data last and how much can I buy?+
Each package is valid for a short window rather than a full month, and the reference plan prices allow a limited number of packages per month. A default roaming balance cap applies per billing period, so a very heavy trip can reach that ceiling. The first package starts at €19.90.
Does DNA sell unlimited data for travel?+
Unlimited data: no. The travel offer is metered, and the reference plan prices charge per GB with a package limit each month. The fair use policy also caps EU roaming by your subscription's own monthly data package, with extra usage charged beyond it and use kept to occasional trips.
Which countries does DNA roaming cover?+
DNA's travel data covers 95 countries, and the offer is aimed at short trip trips. Roaming runs on partner networks such as Telenor, Vodafone, Orange and T-Mobile. Check your destinations against the list before spending €19.90 on a package.
Who is this offer for?+
It is built for short trip travellers, mainly people who already hold a DNA subscription in FI and want travel data added to it. The offer is a carrier plan from DNA Oyj, a company that has operated since 1999.
How do I get help while I am abroad?+
Support runs on email, chat and phone, so you can call, chat, email or use the help centre. That mix matters more abroad than at home, where a voice call is often quicker than a message thread. Save the contact details before departure.
Is this an eSIM or a carrier plan?+
It is a carrier plan from DNA Oyj in Finland, not a standalone travel eSIM bought for one trip, and the listing is marked as carrier-plan in the carrier plan field of the offer. EU roaming draws on the monthly data package on your own subscription, so a plan change may be needed.
How does DNA compare with the alternatives?+
Prices differ across the market: eSIMGo.is starts at $0.99 and SimToIsrael at $25, against DNA at €19.90. Zwitchy also lists 200 countries covered, next to DNA's 95, so breadth and entry price pull in different directions.
