Your Kyrgyzstan eSIM in two questions
Which Kyrgyzstan eSIM plan do I need?
Match your trip length and how you use your phone to the plan that fits your trip.
- A city break in Bishkek: For three days of messages, 2GIS maps and Yandex Go rides, choose 2 GB for 15 days.
- A fortnight touring Issyk-Kul and Karakol: For two weeks of social media, music and some video, choose 10 GB for 30 days.
- A long stay in Osh: For a month of messages, maps and some video, pick 20 GB for 30 days.
- A route that takes in a neighbour: The Central Asia bundle covers Kyrgyzstan along with its neighbours, so one eSIM can carry your route.
Most plans can be topped up if your trip runs longer than planned.

These eSIMs cover Kyrgyzstan and more countries on one plan.
Which network will my eSIM use in Kyrgyzstan?
Your eSIM joins Beeline, which runs on 4G here, so you'll get 4G data rather than 5G. Cities and main roads are well covered, but signal is patchy in the mountains, so plan ahead for trips into the hills. Your phone picks Beeline by itself once mobile data is switched on.
Your data reaches the internet through a United Kingdom IP address, a normal setup for travel eSIMs; here's how that works. Daily plans slow to 512 Kbps once the day's allowance is used. Yandex Go and inDrive are the local ride apps, and WhatsApp and Telegram are where people send messages.
How much data do you need in Kyrgyzstan?
Light: maps, messages, email (about 0.25 GB a day). Standard: plus social, music, some video (about 0.7 GB a day). Heavy: plus streaming, video calls, hotspot (about 1.8 GB a day).

Using your phone in Kyrgyzstan: data and apps tips
- Arriving: Install your eSIM at home on Wi-Fi first. Then, when you land at Manas (FRU) or Osh (OSS), switch it on and turn on data roaming for the eSIM line.
- Getting around: Locals use 2GIS for detailed city maps and directions, so save it before you go. For rides, have Yandex Go and inDrive on your phone.
- Staying in touch: WhatsApp and Telegram are the messaging apps people use here. Your home number stays on for calls and texts. Read how to set up WhatsApp with your home number before you fly.
- Your network: Beeline is the network here, and it runs on 4G only, so there is no 5G. Most plans can be topped up if you need more data mid-trip.
- Choosing data: Streaming, video calls and hotspot use the most data, so if you plan those, choose a bigger plan.
Kyrgyzstan eSIM questions
How much is an eSIM for Kyrgyzstan?
Kyrgyzstan eSIMs start at £3.99 for 1 GB over 7 days. A 5 GB plan for 30 days costs £7.99. Prices include any taxes and show in pounds, euros or dollars.
Which networks does the Kyrgyzstan eSIM use?
Your eSIM connects to Beeline in Kyrgyzstan. Your phone picks the strongest signal automatically.
When does my Kyrgyzstan eSIM start?
Most plans start the moment your eSIM first connects to a network in Kyrgyzstan, so you can buy and install it at home before you fly. Install it within 180 days of buying.
Can I top up my Kyrgyzstan eSIM?
Yes. Most Kyrgyzstan plans can be topped up from your eSIM page in two taps, with no new QR code. The plan table on this page shows which ones.
Why does my IP address show another country?
Kyrgyzstan plans route your data through United Kingdom, a normal setup for travel eSIMs. Websites and apps may show that country's content; your speed and coverage in Kyrgyzstan are not affected.
Does it come with a phone number?
Every eSIMology plan is data only. Keep your own SIM switched on for calls and texts, and use WhatsApp, FaceTime or any calling app over your eSIM's data.
What if my plans change?
Cancel an eSIM you haven't installed within 30 days for a full refund to your card, in two taps from your eSIM page.
Does Yandex Go work with an eSIM in Bishkek?
Yes. Yandex Go and inDrive are the ride apps used in Kyrgyzstan, and both run on your eSIM's mobile data. Open either app after you land at Manas (FRU) and book your ride from there.
Can I use WhatsApp and Telegram in Kyrgyzstan on an eSIM?
Yes. WhatsApp and Telegram are the messaging apps used here, and both run on your eSIM data. Send photos and messages home from Cholpon-Ata or Karakol with either one.
Is there 5G in Kyrgyzstan?
No. Beeline, the network you'll connect to, runs on 4G rather than 5G. Pick your data size with 4G speeds in mind, especially if you plan to stream.
Is 2GIS a good map app for Karakol?
Yes. 2GIS is widely used locally for detailed city maps and directions, so it's the app locals reach for in Karakol, Bishkek and Osh. Use it to find streets and routes in each city you visit.
Which eSIM covers Kyrgyzstan and other Central Asia countries?
Kyrgyzstan is included in two Central Asia bundles and in an Asia bundle covering 19 countries. If your route takes you through more than one country, look at the [Central Asia bundles](/esim/central-asia) rather than a single-country plan.
Why does my eSIM slow down in Kyrgyzstan?
On daily plans, speed drops to 512 Kbps once you've used up that day's allowance. It's a good reason to plan big downloads, like films or app updates, for a day when you have room.
