Why travellers choose this eSIM
- Delivered in seconds: your activation QR code arrives by email straight after checkout - no shipping, no waiting, and you can set it up before you fly.
- No paperwork: no physical SIM swap and no identity registration (KYC) to complete on arrival.
- Keep your number: your usual SIM stays in the phone, so calls and texts to your own number still reach you while data runs over the eSIM.
- Your apps keep working: WhatsApp, iMessage, Google Maps and your banking apps carry on as normal.
- Hotspot included: tethering is supported on every plan, so a laptop or a travel companion can share the connection.
Before you buy
- Data only: traditional SMS and cellular voice calls are not supported. Calling and messaging work as usual through apps such as WhatsApp, FaceTime and Telegram.
- Compatible device required: your phone must support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked.
- Install within 180 days: the eSIM has to be installed within 180 days of purchase.
- Validity starts on first connection: the countdown begins when your device connects to a supported network in any of the covered destinations, not when you buy.
- 7-day returns: unused and unactivated plans can be returned within 7 days.
Middle East & North Africa eSIM: common questions
How do I install and activate it?
After checkout you receive a QR code by email. Scan it in your phone's mobile data settings to install the eSIM - do this at home while you still have WiFi. The plan itself only starts once you land and the device connects to a local network.
Will it work on my phone?
Any carrier-unlocked phone that supports eSIM will work. That covers iPhone XS and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, and recent Samsung Galaxy S and Note models. If in doubt, dial *#06# - if an EID number is listed, your phone supports eSIM.
Can I keep my normal number while I travel?
Yes. The eSIM installs alongside your existing SIM, so your home number stays active for calls and texts while all data runs over this plan. Turn data roaming off on your home line to avoid roaming charges.
Do I need a separate eSIM for each country?
No. One plan covers all 12 destinations: Bahrain, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Morocco, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, Turkey and United Arab Emirates. Your phone selects a local network in each one automatically.
Can I share the connection with my laptop?
Yes, personal hotspot and tethering are supported on every plan in this range.
What happens when the data runs out?
The connection stops until you buy another plan, which you can do at any time - your existing eSIM profile can stay on the device.
SIMNOVA eSIM Travel Checklist
- Check your device. Ensure it’s unlocked and eSIM compatible (Check our device compatibility page).
- Install your eSIM. Scan the QR code or enter the manual activation codes from your email. We recommend installing a few hours before your trip.
- Activate on arrival. The eSIM usually connects automatically to the local network within minutes.
- Do not delete or remove. QR codes and activation codes have limited uses. If the eSIM is deleted or removed, you may not be able to reinstall it.
- Stay connected. 5G / 4G / 3G auto-switching keeps you online wherever you go.
- Share data. Hotspot and tethering work like a regular SIM (carrier limits may apply).
