Gemini models not in the EU yet

These Gemini models run on Opper outside the EU for now, in the region shown. This page updates within the hour when one gains an EU route.

Call Gemini only in the EU

Every route has its own model id. Call that id on any plan and the request is served on that route, in that location. The examples below call Gemini 3.8 Flash on Google Cloud in the EU multi-region.

Set it up with your agent

Copy this into a coding agent like Claude Code, Cursor or Codex and it will wire up Opper and call this route.

Or call it directly

import OpenAI from "openai";
const client = new OpenAI({
apiKey: process.env.OPPER_API_KEY,
baseURL: "https://api.opper.ai/v3/compat",
});
const completion = await client.chat.completions.create({
model: "vertexai/gemini-3.8-flash-eu",
messages: [{ role: "user", content: "Hello" }],
});
console.log(completion.choices[0].message.content);

Lock it in with a rule

A model access rule with Inference location: EU, set for your organization or a project, means no LLM or embedding call can reach a route outside the EU, even by mistake. Rules are part of the Control Plane. How model access rules work

Frequently asked questions

Is Gemini available in the EU?

+
Yes. 11 of the 22 Gemini models on Opper run on EU routes, on Google Cloud in the EU multi-region and the Netherlands. Call the route's model id and the request is served in the EU.

Which Gemini models run in the EU?

+
Gemini 3.8 Flash, Gemini 3.7 Flash, Gemini 3.6 Flash, Gemini 3.5 Flash, Gemini 3.5 Flash Lite, Gemini 2.5 Pro, Gemini 2.5 Flash, Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite, Gemini 2.5 Flash Lite, Gemini 2.5 Flash Image and Gemini Embedding 2.

Is Gemini GDPR (DSGVO) compliant in the EU?

+
Running Gemini on an EU route keeps processing in the EU, which settles where your data goes. The rest depends on your own processing and the service's terms. On Opper, one Data Processing Agreement covers Gemini and every other model, Opper is your single sub-processor, and each route lists what the provider keeps and whether it trains on your data. Opper is certified against ISO/IEC 27001:2022; the controls, policies and sub-processors are on https://trust.opper.ai. Read the DPA

Does Gemini cost more in the EU?

+
Sometimes. Comparing input prices, of the 8 Gemini models that also run elsewhere, 7 cost the same and 1 costs more on their cheapest EU route. Where AWS, Azure or Google charge more for their EU region, the uplift is 10%. Every route's own price is in the table on this page.

How do I make sure Gemini calls never leave the EU?

+
On any plan, call an EU route's model id and the request is served there. To lock it in, set a model access rule with Inference location: EU for your organization or a project, and no LLM or embedding call to Gemini can reach a route outside the EU, even by mistake. Rules are part of the Control Plane. Model access rules

Read this list from an agent

This list as data. The same routes as JSON at opper.ai/models/eu.json (model id, provider, country, zero data retention, training and price per route) and as markdown at opper.ai/models/eu/gemini.md.

The whole catalogue. The model catalogue is public JSON at https://api.opper.ai/v3/models, no API key needed. Filter it with query parameters, for example ?type=llm&limit=3, and page through it with limit and offset. Use it when you can fetch a URL but cannot connect to an MCP server. Coding agents that use MCP can connect to https://api.opper.ai/mcp. Two of the server's tools need no account and no sign-in: list_models searches the model catalogue by name, type, provider or capability, and get_guide returns short setup guides. Everything that touches your account needs you to approve the connection in the browser first. About the MCP server
