Free VPN by country in Europe

Use this directory to compare the available country and territory pages across Europe. Open a country page to compare the free VPN offer, choose an app and check local considerations.

Do not treat a European itinerary as one mobile billing area. Read the destination list in your actual plan, including islands and territories. A change of network can affect charges and login prompts even when the same app stays installed.

Country connectivity at a glance

Values below are the latest non-missing observation for each series in the 2020–2025 snapshot. Check the year beside every value before comparing countries.

What this comparison can tell you

These are measures of adoption and subscriptions, not a ranking of network quality. Two countries can have similar subscription figures while your actual experience differs by address, operator, device and time of day. Test the connection that you will use.

A missing observation does not mean a country has no internet. Mobile subscriptions can outnumber residents, and fixed broadband counts subscriptions rather than individual people. Do not average these different measures together into a score.

Plan one destination at a time

Save the provider’s coverage list and the host’s connection instructions. Check any usage allowance, activation step and restrictions on personal VPNs or bandwidth sharing. If an exact exit country is essential, confirm it in the VPN app; this geographic directory does not identify Zenshield servers.

How we prepare these figures explains the source window and reuse terms. All countries and territories includes destinations outside this region.
