Good to know
Every physical SIM in the DRC must be registered in person with photo ID — an eSIM lets you land in Kinshasa already online, no queue or paperwork.
Prepaid, honestly.

Fixed-data bundles have no daily cap — the gigabytes are yours until they're used or the plan ends. 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 DR Congo, it's shown in the plan details before you pay.

The DR Congo eSIM guide.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo is vast, French-speaking and unforgettable — from Kinshasa's riverside energy to the gorillas and volcanoes of Virunga in the east. Mobile data is your lifeline here: ride-hailing and mobile money in the capital, offline maps upcountry, and messages home from the shores of Lake Kivu.

How it works on the day

Install your eSIM before you fly, then land at Kinshasa (N'djili) or Goma already connected — no queuing to register a local SIM. It hops onto Vodacom Congo, Airtel or Orange RDC automatically, with the strongest 4G in the big cities.

Choosing your days

Most visits run one to three weeks — business in Kinshasa or Lubumbashi, or a gorilla-trekking run through Virunga. Pick a plan that matches your dates and lean on the daily rate, since coverage thins out once you leave the main cities.

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 a bundle of GB sized to the trip. Install it on Wi-Fi before you fly — the days only start once it first connects in DR Congo, and it finds a partner network on its own.

Made for your kind of trip.
