How to get a SIM card in Batumi and which mobile operator to choose?

Magti offers a 42 GEL per month home package that includes internet, Wi‑Fi and TV; it is reported to be sufficient for working from home.

At the Magti office you can get a week of unlimited internet for 10 GEL plus 10 GEL for the SIM card itself (20 GEL total). You can later top up 12 GEL for another week of data. A monthly unlimited plan is also available.

If traveling as a couple, it's worth choosing different operators: one plan was Magti for 9 GEL (5GB data + 60 call minutes), the other was Silknet for 30 GEL with unlimited data. Both worked fine.

Magticom's eSIM is easy to activate via their app with passport verification. It gets 5G coverage even in Tbilisi, and the monthly plan costs 40 GEL, which is considered reasonable.

In August 2026 participants confirmed the same prices at the Magti office: a week of unlimited data is 10 GEL plus 10 GEL for the SIM card, 20 GEL in total; afterwards you can top up the balance and buy another week of unlimited data. Asked about buying a SIM at the airport, one participant advised going to a Magti office instead and not exchanging money at the airport, where, in his words, the rate is extortionate.

Magti is recommended — activate the plan you need directly in the app, either data-only or an all-inclusive package (calls + data).

For those not trying to save every lari, Magti's best option is 10 GEL for the SIM card plus 35 GEL for a month of unlimited data that can be shared with other devices via hotspot.
