Sim Local eSIM Data Plans for Africa

Sim Local does not offer unlimited data eSIM plans for Africa. The provider’s available Africa‑wide options are fixed‑data plans, with the largest example on the directory being a 20 GB plan that is valid for 31 days. Another 20 GB plan covers a similar range of African countries and also offers the same validity period. For travelers who need more than a few gigabytes but do not require unlimited data, these fixed plans can be a more cost‑effective choice than paying for constant usage at high rates, unless the user is an extremely heavy data consumer.

Sim Local does not provide any eSIM plans for Africa that include a phone number or SMS capability. The provider offers only data‑only eSIMs for the African region, and consumers cannot receive or make standard voice or SMS calls with a local number.

Users can still use WhatsApp, Telegram, iMessage and other VoIP applications over the data connection to make calls and send messages, but a traditional phone number or SMS service is not available with Sim Local’s African eSIM plans.

The Holiday World plan reaches Burkina Faso, Benin, Botswana, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Central African Republic, Republic of the Congo, Ivory Coast, Algeria, Egypt, Ethiopia, Gabon, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea‑Bissau, Kenya, Liberia, Lesotho, Morocco, Madagascar, Mali, Mauritania, Mauritius, Mozambique, Niger, Nigeria, Rwanda, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, Senegal, Chad, Tanzania, Uganda, and South Africa.
