Chad eSIM.
N'Djamena markets to the Ennedi desert arches — connected across Chad's cities.
Every plan: QR by email in minutes · data-only, keep your number · days start on first connection · top up anytime · the total shown is the whole bill. What's included →
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 Chad, it's shown in the plan details before you pay.
The Chad eSIM guide.
Chad is one of the Sahara's great off-grid adventures — the Ennedi arches, the Lakes of Ounianga and Zakouma's elephants. In N'Djamena and the regional capitals, data holds the trip together: maps along the Chari, translations in the markets, messaging your guide, and video calls home before the desert swallows the signal.
How it works on the day
Install before you fly: scan the QR at home, and your phone connects to Airtel Chad or Moov Africa the moment you land at N'Djamena's Hassan Djamous International Airport. No SIM swap, no queue at arrivals, no registration desk.
Choosing your days
A one-week plan suits N'Djamena plus a guided desert or Zakouma trip; two to three weeks covers the Ennedi and Ounianga loops. Pick a data pack that matches your days on the ground — coverage is strongest in the towns, sparse in the deep Sahara.
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 Chad, and it finds a partner network on its own.
Made for your kind of trip.
