There are over 80 travel eSIM providers and more than 1, 000 prepaid data plans available for use in Burkina Faso. The large selection makes it easy for travelers to find an eSIM that fits their usage patterns and budget.
There are no unlimited data eSIM plans available for Burkina F. Travelers should estimate their expected data usage based on activities such as web browsing, streaming, or social media, then choose a plan that offers a sufficient data allowance to cover those needs comfortably.
In Burkina Faso, the primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) are:
Orange Burkina Faso: A subsidiary of the Orange Group, offering a comprehensive range of mobile services, including voice, data, and messaging.
Moov Africa (formerly Telecel Faso): Part of the Maroc Telecom Group, providing various mobile services and investing in network infrastructure expansion.
Onatel (Telmob): A state-owned telecommunications company offering mobile services with a focus on affordability.
These operators are regulated by the Autorité de Régulation des Communications Électroniques et des Postes (ARCEP), ensuring fair competition and quality of services.
Currently, Burkina Faso does not have Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs).
Travel eSIMs that include a phone number and support for voice and SMS are available for Burkina Faso from several independent providers. GlobaleSIM offers a range of plans with inbound and outbound calling and inbound SMS using a +1 dialing code. LinkeSIM, Roamify and TravelKon provide similar voice and SMS capabilities through numbers that use the +33 code. Because neither +1 nor +33 is the local Burkina Faso country code (+226), the numbers that travelers receive are not local Burkina Faso numbers, but rather numbers from other countries that can still receive voic mail and text messages.
The available packages vary in data volume, validity period and price. Prices start around $5.50 USD for a 1 GB plan that lasts 7 days and ascend to about $73.00 USD for 20 GB that remains active for 30 days. Validity periods range from 7 days to 30 days across the different offers. Travelers looking for a local Burkina Faso number would need to consider other options, but the plans listed above provide full telephony and SMS functionality when traveling within the country.
