Before you go
Roaming with Vodafone just works when you land. You can talk, TXT or use data in more than 200 On Account destinations, and more than 180 Prepay destinations.
You want to be able to use your mobile when you want without worrying about costs, so if you haven’t already, download the My Vodafone app - you can track your usage while you are away. Pay bills, Top Up or buy more data.
For calls, TXTs and data overseas
If you’re on one of our current On Account plans, then you’re likely to be able to use Daily Roaming , which is just like using your everyday plan but with a simple daily charge of $5. It’s available in more than 70 countries!
Using a Prepay mobile or an older On Account plan, then you’ll be covered by Vodafone Traveller , which splits the world into 4 regions and each region has simple pricing plan.
By sea or air?
It’s worth checking the costs if you’re taking a cruise or planning to use In-flight roaming on the plane as they vary and are different from our standard roaming rates.
Check your mobile
If you are using an older basic feature phone and want to make sure this will work overseas please give us a call 777 from your mobile or 0800 800 021 from a landline. If you’re a business customer call 888 from your mobile before you go.
Feel like a local, even before you land
What’s the secret to a good trip? Being in the know. We’ve partnered with People Media Group to bring you our new ROAM Travel Guides. With these on your phone, you’ll soon be a local no matter where you travel internationally. Each guide features your destination’s top spots including attractions, sight-seeing locations, adrenaline-charged activities and cultural experiences.
Once downloaded, your guide is even available offline if you decide to adventure off the beaten track. Best of all, our ROAM Travel Guides come without lots of annoying ads – just good tips and special deals.

On arrival
When you reach your destination and switch on your phone, you'll get a welcome TXT from us. It'll tell you how much it costs to use your phone overseas, for example if your destination is covered by Daily Roaming, as well as other useful information.
Data use when roaming
My Vodafone will help you keep track of your data use but if you do happen to run low, we’ve got you covered!
For current On Account plans, we have Flexi Data . We’ll TXT you when you’ve used 80% of your data allowance and again at 100% with a link in that TXT to where you can choose how much data you want.
If you’re on an older On Account plan or are in a destination not covered by Daily Roaming, then we have Data Angel Overseas . As before, we’ll TXT you when you need to get more data and show you the options available and costs for your destination.
Using Prepay? There’s simple data pricing so you can stay in control. Check out How to Top Up your Prepay when travelling.
