Coverage & network in Tunisia
The plans for Tunisia are regional: one eSIM that covers Tunisia alongside its neighbours, which is exactly what most trips through this part of the world look like. Every plan shown here works in Tunisia — the coverage counter on each one tells you where else it reaches.
As a rule of thumb: maps and messaging burn 100–200 MB a day, social media roughly 500 MB an hour, and a video call about 1 GB an hour. A light week fits in a small plan; remote work needs a big one.
Coverage in Tunisia is 4G/LTE. It handles navigation, messaging, calls over data and streaming without complaint, and it reaches considerably further than any 5G rollout currently does. Tethering is allowed on every Tunisia plan, so a laptop or a travelling companion can share the connection.
Because these are regional plans, crossing into a neighbouring country usually needs no new eSIM at all — check the coverage list on the plan you pick. The full Africa plan page shows everything the region offers, and Senegal, Seychelles and Sierra Leone have their own pages too.
How to install it
- 1
Buy in a minute
Pick a Tunisia plan and pay. Your QR code arrives by email within minutes — no account, no shipping.
- 2
Install on Wi-Fi
Scan the code before you fly. The profile sits alongside your normal SIM and stays switched off until you need it.
- 3
Land connected
Turn on data roaming for the TravelNet line when you arrive. The plan starts counting down on that first connection, not at checkout.
Will my phone work?
You need an eSIM-capable, carrier-unlocked phone: an iPhone XS or newer, a Pixel 3 or
newer, or a recent Samsung Galaxy S, Z or A-series flagship. Dial *#06# — if
an EID number is listed alongside the IMEI, the phone has an eSIM.

Tunisia eSIM questions
Which network does the Tunisia eSIM use?
We don't publish a single operator name for Tunisia, because the profile can attach to more than one partner network and picks whichever is strongest where you are. In practice that means you get the best available signal rather than being locked to one operator's weak spots.
Will I get 5G in Tunisia?
No. Tunisia plans run on 4G/LTE, which is what the networks cover reliably. For maps, messaging, calls over data and streaming the difference is not something you'll notice.
How much data do I actually need for Tunisia?
Most travellers over-buy. Maps and messaging for a week is under 2 GB; streaming and video calls are what move the number. Start small and top up if you run short.
When does my Tunisia plan start counting down?
When the eSIM first connects to a network in Tunisia, not when you buy it. Install it at home a day or two before you fly — the validity period on the plan you choose runs from arrival, not from checkout.
Why do Tunisia plans list other countries too?
Because they are regional eSIMs: one profile whose allowance works across every country on its coverage list, Tunisia included. For a single-country trip nothing changes — install, land, connect. For a multi-country trip it means the same plan keeps working after the border.
Can I use my Tunisia eSIM as a hotspot?
Yes. Tethering is enabled on every Tunisia plan, so you can share the connection with a laptop, a tablet or someone travelling with you. Hotspot data comes out of the same allowance.
Can I keep my own phone number while I'm in Tunisia?
Yes. Nothing is removed from your phone. The Tunisia profile is added as a second line and set as the one used for data, while your usual number keeps receiving calls, texts and bank verification codes. Switch data roaming off on the home line before you fly.
Do I need to register or show a passport to use a Tunisia eSIM?
No. The plan roams on partner networks, so there's no local SIM registration, no ID upload and no shop visit. You buy it, scan the QR code, and it works on arrival.
What happens if I run out of data in Tunisia?
You can buy another Tunisia plan from the same page and install it the same way. Plans marked as top-up capable can also be extended without a new QR code.
I'm also visiting Senegal and Seychelles — do I need separate eSIMs?
Check the coverage list on the plan you pick first — many Tunisia plans are regional and already include the neighbours, in which case one eSIM covers the whole trip. Otherwise the Africa plan does.
Will my phone work with a Tunisia eSIM?
If it's an iPhone XS or newer, a Pixel 3 or newer, or a recent Samsung Galaxy S, Z or A-series flagship, almost certainly — and it must be carrier-unlocked. Dial *#06# and look for an EID number: if one is listed, the phone has an eSIM. Our compatibility list has the full set.
