international plan mobile hot spot

[cew007]

We will be traveling to Europe for 3 months in June 2025. We were going to purchase the monthly international plan, but when we called support and inquired about mobile hotspot we were told it is not available/included with the plan. We need to have this feature. I then came across a discussion which says it is included. I searched everywhere on the Verizon site to verify this. Can you direct me to where this is stated. I would hate to get overseas and find out we don't have it.  Thank you.

Someone was asking if they could use their hotspot (it was a separate device) overseas, but I'm not sure if that works.  If mobile hotspot isn't available on your phone on international service, have you looked into buying service from a local carrier instead so you can get the feature?  Your phone would have to be unlocked before it works, and you'll need to make sure your apps are reconfigured to run through the foreign SIM to avoid Travel Pass/international service charges.  Otherwise, the only other thing I can think of would be to have your other devices which you're trying to connect to the hotspot use WiFi instead.
