It does not include a German phone number, SMS or cellular voice calls. WhatsApp, Telegram, iMessage, FaceTime, maps and transport apps work through the data connection.</p> <aside class="verdict"> <p class="verdict__head">The short answer</p> For a one or two-week Germany trip, 5 GB for 30 days at $7.99 is a practical choice if you use maps, messaging, DB Navigator and some social media. In practical terms, Atli connects through the O2 Telefónica network, with LTE and 5G. Choose the Europe regional plan instead if the same trip continues into another country. </aside> <h2 id="atli-esim-plans-for-germany">Atli eSIM plans for Germany</h2> <table> <thead> <tr> <th>Data</th> <th style="text-align: right">Validity</th> <th style="text-align: right">Atli price</th> <th>Good for</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>1 GB</td> <td style="text-align: right">7 days</td> <td style="text-align: right">$3.99</td> <td>A weekend with light maps and messaging</td> </tr> <tr> <td>3 GB</td> <td style="text-align: right">30 days</td> <td style="text-align: right">$5.99</td> <td>A short city trip and transport lookups</td> </tr> <tr> <td>5 GB</td> <td style="text-align: right">30 days</td> <td style="text-align: right">$7.99</td> <td>One to two weeks with regular social use</td> </tr> <tr> <td>10 GB</td> <td style="text-align: right">30 days</td> <td style="text-align: right">$12.99</td> <td>A longer trip or occasional laptop use</td> </tr> <tr> <td>20 GB</td> <td style="text-align: right">30 days</td> <td style="text-align: right">$19.99</td> <td>Remote work, streaming or frequent hotspot use</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Unlimited</td> <td style="text-align: right">5 days</td> <td style="text-align: right">$15.99</td> <td>A short trip with heavy data use</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Unlimited</td> <td style="text-align: right">30 days</td> <td style="text-align: right">$58.99</td> <td>A month without tracking each gigabyte</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>These prices were checked in August 2026.

Each of the sixteen federal states sets its own dates, deliberately staggered so the motorways and the airports do not all fill on the same Friday. The spread is wide: summer 2026 opens on 29 June in Hesse and closes on 14 September in Bavaria.</p> <p>That stagger is the planning problem and the opportunity at once. Below are the confirmed 2026 dates, the public holidays and who actually gets them, and the bridge-day arithmetic counted out rather than asserted.</p>
