Short answer

Read Norwegian roaming terms before departure. Use the eSIM for data when it fits the plan, and keep your Norwegian SIM available without letting the phone select it for data accidentally.

Checklist

  • Check price and data limits with your operator
  • Select the eSIM as the data line
  • Follow current BankID app help

Common question

Can I receive SMS on my Norwegian number in India?

It depends on your operator's terms and phone settings. Check before departure and do not assume SMS is always free.
