There are more than 80 travel eSIM providers and more than 1,500 prepaid data plans available in Mauritius, offering a wide variety of options that make it easy for travelers to find an eSIM that suits their needs.
Unlimited data eSIM options are available to travelers heading to Mauritius. Providers such as abesteSIM, Yesim, MicroEsim, Roamify and Yoho Mobile offer plans with no data cap, typically ranging in validity from one to thirty days. These plans are generally offered on 4G and/or 5G networks and allow tethering, although the network speed may be throttled during heavy usage. For example, Yoho Mobile includes a stated speed limit of 5 Mbps, while the other providers indicate that speed may be throttled without specifying a fixed cap. The price bands for these unlimited plans start around $7.87 and can go up to about $449.07, giving travelers a range of budget options to choose from that will cover all standard internet activities without worry about data limits.
Mauritius hosts several major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) that provide extensive coverage and services across the island:
My.T (Mauritius Telecom): The incumbent provider, offering comprehensive 2G, 3G, and 4G/LTE services, with coverage extending to Rodrigues and Agalega islands.
Emtel: A prominent operator delivering 2G, 3G, 4G/LTE, and 5G services, with its 5G network covering approximately 80% of the population as of 2024.
Chili (MTML): Operated by Mahanagar Telephone Mauritius Limited, providing 2G and 3G services, with coverage primarily in urban areas.
In Mauritius, Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) lease network access from these major carriers to offer their own mobile services. However, most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of the primary MNOs rather than MVNOs.
