Ways to manage international usage

Find out how to keep your charges predictable when traveling abroad.

Learn about international usage

International charges apply when you talk, text, or use data outside the U.S., Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. But you can save if you have AT&T Passport^®, AT&T International Day Pass^® (IDP), or a similar plan for international travel.

When you arrive in an included country, we’ll automatically add IDP to smartphones with eligible rate plans. We’ll send you a text to let you know we’re adding it, and what to do if you don’t want it. Learn more
Taking a cruise? See AT&T Cruise One-Time Charge Packages.

Note: International and domestic off-net (also called roaming) data usage may be at slower 2G speeds.
