5 GB · 30 days£9.99 / €11.99 / $12.99

Which Tunisia eSIM plan do I need?

Start with how long you'll stay and how you'll use your phone, then match it to one of these.

A city break in Tunis or Sidi Bou Said: Three days of light use, with maps, messages and Bolt or Yassir rides, suits 1 GB for 7 days.

A fortnight touring Sousse, Hammamet and Djerba: Fourteen days of standard use, with social media, music and some video, suits 10 GB for 30 days.

A long stay of a month: Thirty days of standard use suits 20 GB for 30 days, which covers scrolling, listening and the odd video.

A trip that also takes in a neighbour: The Middle East & North Africa bundle covers 12 countries, Tunisia among them, so one eSIM can cover the whole route.

Most plans can be topped up, and the longest one lasts 30 days.

Good to know

  • Hotspot works where your phone and the network allow it

  • Top up the same eSIM any time, no new QR code

Will my eSIM have signal in Tunisia?

Tunisia has one network, OOREDOO TN, which runs 5G, and your eSIM joins it. Your phone picks OOREDOO TN by itself, so there is nothing to select. Messages, maps and Bolt or Yassir rides all travel over that connection, so you can text home and get where you are going.

Your data reaches the internet through the United Kingdom, a normal setup for travel eSIMs. You can read more on the IP address page. Daily plans slow to 512 Kbps once you have used that day's allowance. Most plans can be topped up if you need more.

Using your phone in Tunisia: data tips

  • Arriving: Install your eSIM at home on Wi-Fi, then switch it on as you touch down at Tunis–Carthage (TUN), Djerba–Zarzis (DJE) or Monastir Habib Bourguiba (MIR). Turn on data roaming for the eSIM line, and see how to turn on data roaming if you need it.
