Afghanistan hosts over 60 travel eSIM providers and more than 700 prepaid data plans. The wide variety of options makes it easy for travelers to find an eSIM that suits their needs.
Yesim offers unlimited data eSIM plans for Afghanistan that can be used for 1 to 30 days. The unlimited plans are priced between $9.46 and $85.15 USD. While the data is unlimited, speed may be throttled after a certain amount of usage and tethering is allowed. No other providers in the database currently list unlimited data options for Afghanistan.
Afghanistan's mobile network landscape is served by several key Mobile Network Operators (MNOs):
Afghan Wireless Communication Company (AWCC): Established in 2002, AWCC is the country's first mobile services provider, offering extensive coverage across all provinces.
Roshan (Telecom Development Company Afghanistan Ltd.): Launched in 2003, Roshan serves over 6.5 million active customers and operates in more than 287 districts and cities nationwide.
MTN Afghanistan: A subsidiary of the multinational MTN Group, MTN Afghanistan has been operating since 2006, providing a range of mobile services throughout the country.
Etisalat Afghanistan: Beginning operations in 2007, Etisalat Afghanistan is a subsidiary of Etisalat UAE, offering voice and data services in all 34 provinces and over 200 districts.
Salaam Telecom (Afghan Telecom Company): Operating as a state-owned entity, Salaam Telecom provides mobile services, including 3G coverage, and contributes to expanding telecom services in rural areas.
These operators play a significant role in Afghanistan's telecommunications sector, offering a range of services and coverage across the country.
Travel eSIM plans that provide an active phone number and SMS support for Afghanistan can be obtained from GlobaleSIM and Roamify. GlobaleSIM offers a range of packages—from 1 GB for 7 days at $6.00 to 20 GB for 30 days at $67.00—each including a phone number with dialing code +1, allowing inbound and outbound voice calls and inbound SMS. Roamify’s 1 GB plan for 30 days costs $30.00 and supplies a number with dialing code +33 that supports inbound and outbound voice and SMS.
Because the dialing codes for these numbers are +1 and +33, the phones are not local Afghanistan numbers (Afghanistan’s international code is +93). Travelers who need a local Afghanistan number would need to look for other solutions; otherwise these plans let users make international calls, send and receive SMS, and use data on Afghan networks.
