Reliance Jio has exclusively offered country-specific International Roaming (IR) packs for popular destinations such as Canada, Europe, Thailand, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). These IR recharge plans come with multiple validity options, giving users the choice of up to 30 days. Additionally, the telecom provider will also be bundling in-flight freebies with its IR packs in Europe and the Caribbean. Users can also avail 50% off prepaid tariffs in 32 international destinations.

Reliance Jio announced the details of the new IR packs in a press note. Users travelling to the UAE, Canada, Thailand and Saudi Arabia will get unlimited SMS receiving. Incoming calls, including Wi-Fi calling, can be received from any country. They will also be able to make outgoing calls to India and locally. Packs for these regions also include high-speed data, which will be reduced to 64 kbps once the fair usage policy (FUP) is exceeded.
However, Reliance Jio said that local calls, overseas (ROW) calls and SMS over Wi-Fi will not be allowed with the IR pack.
Packs for the UAE start at Rs 898 and offer 100 minutes each of calling and receiving, 1GB high-speed data, 100 SMS and seven days validity, while packs for Canada, Thailand and Saudi Arabia start at Rs 1,691, Rs 1,551 and Rs 891 respectively.
Reliance Jio users travelling to the Caribbean can avail in-flight benefits with the highest IR recharge plan of Rs 3,851. Here is a list of all the packs and their respective benefits:
