In the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), the primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) are:
Vodacom Congo: A subsidiary of Vodacom Group, offering 2G, 3G, and 4G services, including mobile money through M-Pesa.
Airtel Congo: Part of Bharti Airtel, providing 2G, 3G, and 4G services, along with Airtel Money for mobile financial transactions.
Orange RDC: A subsidiary of Orange S.A., delivering 2G, 3G, and 4G services, and offering mobile money services via Orange Money.
Africell DRC: Operating since 2012, Africell offers 2G, 3G, and 4G services, focusing on expanding network coverage and providing affordable mobile services.
As of now, the DRC does not have Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs). Therefore, most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of the major MNOs listed above.
Yes – several travel eSIMs give you a phone number with SMS, but most use a foreign dialing code.
Providers that offer such plans for the Democratic Republic of Congo include GlobaleSIM, ESIM.DOG, JamboSim, RedEx eSIM, Orange Travel, EtravelSIM and others. The only plan that supplies a local Congolese number (dialing code +243) is RedEx eSIM, which offers inbound and outbound voice and SMS. The other plans use foreign numbers (most commonly +1 or +33) and provide either inbound/outbound voice and SMS or, in the case of JamboSim, only outbound voice and SMS. Prices start at about $4 for a 1 GB, 7‑day package and can rise to roughly $84 for a 10 GB plan that lasts 180 days.
