Yes, you are able to hotspot/tether from your phone to another phone or device whilst in the EU.

You simply need to have both MOBILE DATA and DATA ROAMING functions ENABLED/TURNED ON in your phone to use the service.

The mobile data APN settings should automatically update when you insert the sim in you phone. If it does not, you need to update the settings so it states the following;

APN Name: 

APN: 

None of the other mobile data APN fields, need to be changed or adjusted, only the above.

Details about APN settings and other important information will be noted on the instruction sheet that will come accompanied with the sim.

The sim connects to different networks in different countries.

The features on the sim are valid for 28 days from activation.

This travel SIM cannot be recharged. If you are travelling for longer than 30 days, we advise that you purchase additional SIMs based on your duration of travel and place an activation date approximately 30 days apart for each sim and change the sim over at the end of  30 days.

For example, if you are travelling for 56 days and are departing on the 1st of September, then you should select 2 for the quantity (qty) and add them to the cart. Then in the cart page enter the activation date for the first sim as 1st September and then press the "+" to enter the activation date for second sim as 30th September. Whilst on your travel, insert the first sim card to get connected and after 30 days all you need to do is swap the sims over to remain connected throughout your trip. (Please note: each sim card will have a different phone number). As long as you are aware your 30 days will begin from the activation date you provide for each sim, it's up to you what date you provide for each sim ensuring it covers you for your duration. It's fine to have services overlap.
