Yes. Install the eSIM before you leave; it activates automatically once your phone picks up the local network on arrival. Nothing to do on the ground.
Is my phone eSIM-compatible?
Most recent smartphones support eSIM: iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer. Check your device’s network settings before ordering.
