Good to know
A local Sri Lankan tourist SIM has to be registered against your passport at the airport kiosk before it works — a roaming eSIM connects the moment you land at Colombo (CMB), with no counter queue and no passport handed over.
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 Sri Lanka, it's shown in the plan details before you pay.

The Sri Lanka eSIM guide.

Sri Lanka packs a lot into a small island, and data keeps it stitched together: a PickMe tuk-tuk booked outside the terminal, Google Maps threading Colombo's traffic, WhatsApp open for a Kandy guesthouse host, and seat numbers checked for the Ella train. From the Cultural Triangle to the southern coast, a connection earns its keep daily.

How it works on the day

Scan the QR at home over Wi-Fi, then switch the eSIM on as you land at Bandaranaike International (CMB) near Colombo. It latches onto a major Sri Lankan network — usually Dialog or SLT-Mobitel — automatically, while your home number stays live for WhatsApp.

Choosing your days

A 7-day plan suits a south-coast beach stay or a quick Colombo–Kandy–Sigiriya loop; 10 to 14 days covers the classic island circuit down to Ella and the tea country and brings the per-day rate down.

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 Sri Lanka, and it finds a partner network on its own.

Made for your kind of trip.

Hill country & tea trainsKandy to Ella on the world-famous hill train, the tea estates at Nuwara Eliya and the Nine Arch Bridge — mapped and shared, though signal thins on the higher passes.
Southern beaches & whalesGalle Fort, Mirissa whale trips, Unawatuna and the Weligama surf — booking boats, checking the swell and sending sunset photos to the family chat on unlimited data.
Cultural TriangleSigiriya's Lion Rock, the Dambulla cave temples and Anuradhapura's ruins — opening times, guide pickups and site maps a tap away instead of hunting for Wi-Fi.
Safari & wildlifeYala's leopards and Udawalawe's elephants sit well off the grid — download the route and confirm the jeep pickup while you still have bars at the park gate.
