Good to know
Local Afghan SIMs require in-person biometric ID registration before they work — a roaming eSIM lets you land in Kabul already connected, with no queue or paperwork.
Unlimited, honestly.

Unlimited plans run at full speed up to a daily fair-use allowance, then at reduced speed until the allowance resets the next day — you're never cut off. Every plan is prepaid: the checkout total is the whole bill, and we never add overage charges.

Hotspot support varies by plan and destination — where it's available for your plan in Afghanistan, it's shown in the plan details before you pay.

The Afghanistan eSIM guide.

Afghanistan rewards the prepared traveller, and mobile data is part of the kit. Coverage is strongest in Kabul, Herat, Mazar-i-Sharif and the other cities, where 4G handles maps, Dari and Pashto translations, ride-hailing and video calls home. Load an eSIM before you fly and you skip the local-SIM registration queue entirely.

How it works on the day

Buy the plan, then scan the QR code to install your eSIM over home Wi-Fi before departure — nothing to collect on arrival. It switches on as you land at Kabul International Airport, or the airports at Herat, Mazar-i-Sharif and Kandahar.

Choosing your days

Plans run from short data bundles for a week's assignment up to 30-day allowances for longer postings. Aid rotations and family stays often suit a monthly plan, while a quick trip is cheaper by the day — top up whenever you need more.

The short version.

A travel eSIM is data only. It sits next to your home SIM, so your number, texts and WhatsApp carry on as normal. Pick unlimited, priced per day, or a fixed bundle of GB if it's mostly maps and messages. Install it on Wi-Fi before you fly — the days only start once it first connects in Afghanistan, and it finds a partner network on its own.
