Everything you need to know about using eSIMs in DR Congo
There are more than 140 providers and more than 3, 500 prepaid data plans available for DR Congo, offering a wide variety of options that make it easy for travelers to find an eSIM that suits their needs.
Unlimited data eSIM plans are available for the Democratic Republic of Congo from several providers. Truely, Yesim, and Roamify all offer “unlimited” plans with validity periods that range from 1 to 30 days. All of these plans support tethering but note that the network speed may be throttled during heavy use; they all run on 5G networks. The price range for these unlimited options spans roughly from $6.32 to $266.00 USD, giving travelers a broad spectrum of budgets to choose from.
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.
Travel eSIM plans that include a phone number and SMS are available for the Democratic Republic of Congo. Providers such as GlobaleSIM, ESIM.DOG, Roamify, RoameSIM, EtravelSIM and Orange Travel offer these services, with validity periods ranging from seven days up to thirty‑days and prices beginning around $4.00 and extending to roughly $35.99. Each plan gives inbound voice and SMS, and most also supply outbound voice and SMS, allowing both local and international communications over the eSIM.
The dialing code on the number varies by provider. Plans from GlobaleSIM, ESIM.DOG, Roamify, RoameSIM, EtravelSIM and Orange Travel use the +1 code, which belongs to the United States and Canada and thus provides a foreign number rather than a local Congolese one. RedEx eSIM, for example, offers a local number with the +243 code, and therefore it is the only provider in the list that supplies a true Congolese phone number. All of these plans give you a mobile number and enable sending and receiving SMS while traveling in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
