Lumbus eSIM Data Plans for Ethiopia

Lumbus does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM for Ethiopia. The plans that carry the name “Ethiopia Unlimited” give a daily allowance of 3GB and, after that limit is reached, the speed is reduced to 1000kbps, so the data is not unlimited.

Travelers who need more data can choose from Lumbus’s fixed data plans, such as the 20GB 30Days plan for $107.99 or the 10GB 30Days plan for $58.99. These plans offer a set amount of high‑speed data that must be used within 30 days and are more cost‑effective for most users.

Lumbus does not provide an eSIM for Ethiopia that includes a phone number or the ability to send or receive SMS. Travelers can only purchase a data‑only eSIM from the provider. If a telephone number or standard text messaging is needed, users should rely on VoIP and messaging applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection. However, the availability of these apps can vary, so it is wise to check that the services you require work in Ethiopia before buying.

Lumbus offers 12 single‑country plans for Ethiopia and no multi‑country plans. The plans range from $6.99 to $340.99 and provide between 1 GB and 20 GB of data, with validity periods from 1 to 30 days. Among these, four plans feature a daily data cap, limiting the amount of data that can be used each day, while eight plans offer a fixed data amount that can be used at any time during the validity period. No multi‑country options are available.
