Traveling This Season? Here's How to Watch Every NFL Game from Anywhere

Key Takeaways

• DAZN NFL Travel Pass is the official solution for US fans abroad – $17.99/week or $179.99/year.
• Travel Pass must be purchased from dazn.com/NFL while still in the US or from a US mobile device.
• NFL Game Pass International via DAZN covers all games live in 200+ countries – no US account needed.
• A VPN with a US server lets you keep using NFL+, YouTube TV, or Sunday Ticket while abroad.
• Residential IPs are less likely to trigger streaming platform detection than datacenter VPN ranges.

Leaving the US for work, a trip, or a longer stay doesn't mean losing your NFL. There are three reliable ways to keep watching – an official DAZN pass, Game Pass International, or a VPN with your existing US subscription. If you're specifically planning ahead for NFL playoffs outside the US, the same three options apply, though demand and blackout rules can shift once the postseason starts.

Here's what each one actually costs, what it requires, and when to use it, so you can pick before you're already sitting in a hotel room three time zones away wondering why the app won't load.

One detail decides more of this than any other, and most guides skip it: the official Travel Pass has to be bought while you're still in the US.

Sort the right option before you fly, and the rest is straightforward. Leave it until you land, and one of your best options is already off the table.

Option 1: DAZN NFL Travel Pass (Official, Made for Travelers)

DAZN NFL Travel Pass is the official product built for US fans traveling outside the US, giving access to DAZN's NFL Game Pass content in 200+ countries. That means live out-of-market games and replays while you're away, rather than a stripped-down highlights feed. 

There are two plans, and one rule that trips up more travelers than any other: it must be purchased from dazn.com/NFL while you are in the US, or from a US mobile device. It cannot be bought once you're already abroad.

The single most important step is to buy it before you leave, ideally while you still have a US payment method and connection handy.

If your interest is a specific product like the whip-around channel, there's more on NFL RedZone outside the US in a dedicated guide.

Option 2: NFL Game Pass International (No US Account Needed)

NFL Game Pass International, delivered through DAZN, is available directly in 200+ countries outside the US. It carries all regular season and postseason games live, with no blackouts and no US account required. 

This is the right option if you're based internationally rather than traveling temporarily, since it's bought in your own country rather than smuggled out of the US before a trip.

Current pricing varies by market, so check your country's rate on DAZN. The NFL+ vs Game Pass International comparison covers which one fits your setup.

Option 3: VPN with Your Existing US Subscription

If you already pay for NFL+, YouTube TV, or Sunday Ticket, a VPN connected to a US server lets you keep using that subscription from abroad. Your service sees a US IP and streams as normal. 

A residential VPN for streaming matters here because residential IPs are assigned by real ISPs to real households and are less likely to be detected and blocked than datacenter VPN ranges, which streaming platforms increasingly flag. The setup is short:

1. Connect to a US server on Mysterium VPN.
2. Open your streaming app – NFL+, YouTube TV, or Sunday Ticket.
3. Watch your game as normal.

Worth knowing before you rely on this: some services layer their own location checks on top of IP, and a few tie access to your home network at signup, so it's smart to confirm your specific subscription's terms and test the setup on a US server before you travel rather than at kickoff.

To set this up before you fly, you can get Mysterium VPN and then download Mysterium VPN on the devices you'll travel with. 

If your existing subscription is Sunday Ticket specifically, the NFL Sunday Ticket abroad guide goes deeper, and how streaming platforms detect VPNs explains why the IP type is the part that matters.

Which Option Is Right for You?

The quickest way to choose is to match your situation to the requirement each option carries.

The short version: if you're a US fan heading out for a few weeks, buy the Travel Pass before you go. If you live abroad, Game Pass International is the cleaner fit. 

And if you already pay for a US service you're happy with, a US server on Mysterium VPN keeps that subscription working without paying twice. Sort whichever one applies before you fly, not from the departure lounge.
