Netherlands: 11 Best Prepaid SIM Cards Buying Guide (2023)

The Netherlands – also referred to as Holland or by many as just Amsterdam, is known for its windmills, tulips & a certain green thing that is kinda legal there.

The country is also known for the vast number of cyclists, cheeses & beers.

There are complete Netherlands-dedicated blogs out there because there is so much to do in the country.

While I am Dutch myself and could have started such a blog myself… I am more interested in the world… especially SIM cards 🤓.

But I can assure you there is no reason to be bored in the Netherlands.

What certainly will not bore you is you dealing with an expensive international roaming bill because you forgot to turn data roaming off.

International roaming can be expensive, which is why I always recommend local SIM cards, like a Dutch one, so that you can enjoy local rates.

So, how much do SIM cards cost in the Netherlands?

You can get a Dutch SIM card for 4.99 EUR (5.55 USD) from KPN, between 5 EUR and 30 EUR (5.55 USDand33.30 USD) from Vodafone & 10 EUR (11.10 USD) from T-Mobile in their stores and from resellers, like convenience stores and grocery stores. The MVNOs (AH Mobiel, ALDI Talk, Jumbo Mobiel, Kruidvat Mobiel, Lebara, L-Mobi Mobile, Lycamobile & Ortel Mobile) sell SIM cards between 5 EUR and 288 EUR (319.75 USD). SIM cards are also sold at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (AMS) and Eindhoven Airport (EIN).

Worry not, the 288 EUR SIM card includes a plan valid for two years.

Imagine if that was the cost of only the SIM card 🤪.

In this guide, I will go over everything you need to know about buying a SIM card in the Netherlands. Let's go.

Can You Buy a SIM Card in the Netherlands?

Anyone living in or visiting the Netherlands can buy a Dutch SIM card from T-Mobile, KPN, Vodafone, AH Mobiel, ALDI Talk, Jumbo Mobiel, Kruidvat Mobiel, Lebara, L-Mobi Mobile, Lycamobile & Ortel Mobile with no restrictions.

Your phone has to support the frequencies used in the Netherlands.

Furthermore, your phone needs to be unlocked (SIM-lock free) to use a Dutch SIM card.

Where Can You Buy a SIM Card in the Netherlands?

You can get a Dutch SIM card in T-Mobile, KPN & Vodafone stores. Resellers, like post offices, newsstands & grocery stores, also sell SIM cards (especially for the MVNOs). They are also sold at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (AMS) & Eindhoven Airport (EIN).

You can expect to pay the following for Dutch SIM cards:

• T-Mobile Netherlands: 10 EUR
• KPN: 4.99 EUR
• Vodafone Netherlands: 5 EUR, 10 EUR, 15 EUR, 20 EUR & 30 EUR
• AH Mobiel: 5 EUR
• ALDI TALK Netherlands: 9.99 EUR
• Jumbo Mobiel: 4.95 EUR
• Kruidvat Mobiel: 7.99 EUR
• Lebara Netherlands: 5 EUR, 10 EUR & 20 EUR
• L-Mobi Mobile Netherlands: from 6.95 EUR
• Lycamobile Netherlands: 5 EUR, 10 EUR & 20 EUR
• Ortel Mobile Netherlands: 5 EUR, 10 EUR & 20 EUR

For up-to-date EUR:your currency (let's say GBP) exchange rates, use the Wise Currency Converter tool.

Can You Use Your Phone in the Netherlands?

The Netherlands uses GSM technology for mobile communications. CDMA phones will not work in the Netherlands. If your phone has a SIM card slot, then it supports GSMA (99% of the phones do support GSM nowadays).

Traditional European frequencies are used in the Netherlands, which are mostly used in ITU Regions 1 and 3 (Africa, Asia (including the Middle East), Europe & Oceania).

The Americas (North-, Central– & South America + the Caribbean – ITU Region 2) use American frequencies, which differ from the European ones.

If you bought your phone in Africa, Asia, Europe, or Oceania (ITU Regions 1 and 3), you should not experience any issues with using your phone in the Netherlands.

If you purchased your phone in the Americas (ITU Region 2) and have a low/medium-end device (without Tri-Band or Quad-Band) support, then there is a possibility you cannot use your phone when in the Netherlands or can only use slower networks (3G or 2G).

If you have a medium/high-end device with Tri-Band or Quad-Band support, you can use your phone in the Netherlands (to some extent) – also on 4G/LTE (and soon 5G NR).

Mobile Operators, Networks & Frequencies in the Netherlands

The Netherlands has three mobile operators and eight Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) offering prepaid services easily accessible to travelers:

• T-Mobile Netherlands
• KPN
• Vodafone Netherlands
• AH Mobiel (KPN MVNO)
• ALDI TALK Netherlands (KPN MVNO)
• Jumbo Mobiel (KPN MVNO)
• Kruidvat Mobiel (KPN MVNO)
• Lebara Netherlands (KPN MVNO)
• L-Mobi Mobile Netherlands (KPN MVNO)
• Lycamobile Netherlands (KPN MVNO)
• Ortel Mobile Netherlands (KPN MVNO)

The following frequencies are used in the Netherlands:

• 2G: 900 MHz & 1800 MHz (not for T-Mobile)
• 3G: 900 MHz & 2100 MHz (not for KPN & Vodafone)
• 4G/LTE: 800 MHz (Band 20), 900 MHz (Band 8), 1500 MHz (Band 32), 1800 MHz (Band 3), 2100 MHz (Band 1) & 2600 MHz (Band 7 & Band 38)
• 5G NR: 700 MHz (n28), 1800 MHz (n3) & 2100 MHz (n1) – all not for prepaid (yet)

You can learn more about frequencies in the video below.

To check whether your phone will work in the Netherlands, check out this page by Kimovil or this one by Will My Phone Work (outdated, unfortunately, but extremely user-friendly – useful for phones launched in or before 2019. It does not check for 5G NR compatibility).

Again, make sure your phone is unlocked. Otherwise, you will not be able to use any SIM card except the one from your home operator (meaning you have to roam internationally or buy another unlocked phone that does support the frequencies listed above).

If you want to learn how international roaming works, this guide explains it in-depth. If you wonder why it is often so expensive to roam, this article explains the hidden reason they do not want you to know.

VoLTE & VoWiFi in the Netherlands

Both VoLTE (Voice over LTE (4G) – also known as HD Voice) and VoWiFi (Voice over WiFi – also known as WiFi calling) are available in the Netherlands. However, not all mobile operators offer both services to prepaid customers.

This means that your phone does not have to downgrade to 2G or 3G when making a call in the Netherlands (unlike mobile operators that do not support VoLTE).

The following mobile operators offer VoLTE and VoWiFi to prepaid customers in the Netherlands:

• T-Mobile Netherlands

The following mobile operators offer VoWiFi only to prepaid customers in the Netherlands:

• Vodafone Netherlands

The following mobile operators do not offer VoLTE or VoWiFi to prepaid customers in the Netherlands:

• KPN
• AH Mobiel (KPN MVNO)
• ALDI TALK Netherlands (KPN MVNO)
• Jumbo Mobiel (KPN MVNO)
• Kruidvat Mobiel (KPN MVNO)
• Lebara Netherlands (KPN MVNO)
• L-Mobi Mobile Netherlands (KPN MVNO)
• Lycamobile Netherlands (KPN MVNO)
• Ortel Mobile Netherlands (KPN MVNO)

VoWiFi is, as the name implies, calling on a WiFi connection as opposed to on a cellular network.

5G NR in the Netherlands

Commercial 5G NR has been available in the Netherlands since June 2020. It is available on T-Mobile, KPB & Vodafone networks. However, prepaid customers, including all the MVNOs, cannot use 5G NR yet.

Best SIM Card in the Netherlands

Best eSIM in the Netherlands

Unfortunately, none of the mobile operators offer eSIMs to prepaid customers in the Netherlands (yet).

However, you can also get a travel eSIM from various eSIM providers.

The list below is not exhaustive – many more providers have eSIMs for Netherlands.

But these are the ones I have tried and had pleasant experiences with.

Moreover, they are reasonably priced, which I find very important (you will not see me recommending an eSIM I would not buy myself).

So here are the 16 best eSIMs for Netherlands:

• Dutch mobile operators (three offer eSIMs to prepaid customers – read more in my Thailand SIM card buying guide)
• Airalo Hé Hé eSIM with 5G NR access with six choices between 1 GB and 20 GB (best value for money)
• Holafly Netherlands eSIM with unlimited data for 5 to 90 days (unlimited data eSIMs)
• Nomad Netherlands eSIM with ten choices between 1 GB and 20 GB (best value for money… too)
• Airalo Eurolink eSIM with 5G NR access in the Netherlands with six choices between 1 GB and 100 GB (best value for money for 39 European countries) – read my ongoing Airalo Eurolink eSIM review too!
• Holafly Europe eSIM with unlimited data for 5 to 60 days (unlimited data eSIMs for 33 European countries)
• Nomad Europe eSIM with 13 choices between 1 GB and 40 GB (the best of both worlds in terms of pricing and performance for 35 European countries)
• SimOptions Europe eSIMs with seven choices between 8 GB and 24 GB (choice from multiple providers + calling & texting options (the only one in this list))
• Ubigi Europe Plans with 5G NR access in the Netherlands (most extensive Europe coverage (52 countries), with a liberal definition of Europe in your favor)
• Airalo Discover Global eSIM with five choices between 1 GB and 20 GB (reasonable global coverage (85+ countries) at attractive prices)- read my ongoing Airalo Discover Global eSIM review too!
• AIS eSIM2FLY Global eSIM through SimOptions with 5G NR access in the Netherlands with one 6 GB option (eSIM with the most 5G NR supported countries (50/123) at a reasonable price but with a short validity)
• Nomad Global eSIM with three choices between 1 GB and 5 GB (extensive global coverage (110 countries) at high(er) prices)
• Ubigi World Plan with 5G NR access in the Netherlands (most extensive global coverage (175+ countries) at the highest prices)

Because this is the SIM card buying guide for Netherlands, I will not spend too much time about travel eSIMs here and throughout this guide (but I will still do here and there).

If you want to learn more about the best eSIMs for Netherlands, you better check out my Netherlands eSIM buying guide.

It is as helpful and comprehensive as this guide but about eSIMs instead 😜.

SIM Card Registration in the Netherlands

SIM card registration using your passport information is not needed when buying a SIM card in the Netherlands.

However, do note that the mobile operators may encourage you to register your SIM by providing incentives, such as extra credit or data.

In this case, registration means creating an account with the operator and does not require your passport information.

EU Roaming in the Netherlands

The Netherlands is part of the European Union (EU).

Since June 2017, those with EU/EEA (European Economic Area) SIM cards can roam for free in other EU/EEA nations, including the Netherlands.

This means that, in the majority of cases, you do not need to purchase a Dutch SIM card if you already have an EU/EEA SIM card because you can roam without additional costs.

However, conditions do apply. Mobile operators in some countries may impose a roaming Fair Use Policy (FUP).

In countries where local mobile data rates are extremely low (such as in the Baltics and the Nordics), mobile operators may still charge you for roaming in the EU/EEA.

Be sure to head over to the international roaming page to learn whether your mobile operator offers free roaming while in the Netherlands or if restrictions apply.

Roaming in the EU with Dutch SIM Cards

The Netherlands and the Dutch mobile operators have largely adopted the roam like at home regulations principles early on.

However, some plans have an EU/EEA roaming cap.

Moreover, the standard Fair Use Policy applies where you should not be roaming over 50% of the time over a four-month period.

If you do so, EU roaming rates will apply. You are then better off buying local prepaid SIM cards in other EU nations.

Netherlands Mobile Speeds, Mobile Internet Prices & Insights

Being redone.

Currency in the Netherlands

The Netherlands uses the Euro with the symbol EUR (which will be used throughout this guide).

However, prices are often listed as just €. For example, 25 EUR = €25.

For reference, below are some exchange rates between EUR and USD (US Dollars):

• 1 EUR = 1.10 USD
• 10 EUR = 11.10 USD
• 100 EUR = 111.05 USD

For up-to-date EUR:your currency (let's say GBP – (British) Pound (Sterling)) exchange rates, use the Wise Currency Converter tool.

Dutch Prepaid SIM Cards

Below, I will guide you through T-Mobile Netherlands, KPN, Vodafone Netherlands, AH Mobiel, ALDI Talk Netherlands, Jumbo Mobiel, Kruidvat Mobiel, L-Mobi Mobile Netherlands, Lebara Netherlands, Lycamobile Netherlands & Ortel Mobile Netherlands, and go through:

• Background information
• Mobile coverage
• SIM card types, prices, and availability
• Recharge/top-up information
• Combo plans, data plans, and special packs (such as social media packs) 

With that being said, let's see what the Netherlands have to offer to us.

T-Mobile Netherlands (Nederland)

T-Mobile Netherlands (Nederland), just T-Mobile, is the largest mobile operator in the Netherlands.

It was the best and fastest mobile operator in the country from 2016 until 2021, which is when KPN caught up again.

While T-Mobile is not owned by Deutsche Telekom from Germany anymore, the T-Mobile and Telekom brand is used throughout Europe and in the United States.

T-Mobile uses the following frequencies:

• 2G: N/A – shut down in June 2021
• 3G: 900 MHz & 2100 MHz
• 4G/LTE: 800 MHz (Band 20), 900 MHz (Band 8), 1800 MHz (Band 3), 2100 MHz (Band 1) & 2600 MHz (Band 7 & Band 38)

KPN

KPN is the second-largest mobile operator in the Netherlands.

As of 2021, KPN is the fastest (5G NR) mobile operator in the country.

And it is also the mobile operator with the best overall network.

While this is all good news, KPN throttles prepaid speeds to up to 25 Mbps – and that also applies to its KPN MVNOs.

And (un)fortunately, all MVNOs easily accessible to travelers are KPN MVNOs.

And I say up to – you will often have to deal with even slower speeds.

What is funny is that when you roam on the KPN network, like with the Hè Hè Airalo eSIM, you will get much faster speeds than with KPN prepaid.

KPN uses the following frequencies:

• 2G: 900 MHz
• 3G: N/A – shut down in March 2022
• 4G/LTE: 800 MHz (Band 20), 1500 MHz (Band 32), 1800 MHz (Band 3), 2100 MHz (Band 1) & 2600 MHz (Band 7 & Band 38)
• 5G NR: 700 MHz (n28) & 2100 MHz (n1) – not for prepaid… yet
• VoLTE: Yes (but not for prepaid)
• VoWiFi: Yes (but not for prepaid)
