Rwanda hosts more than 90 eSIM providers and offers more than 1100 prepaid data plans, giving travelers a wide variety of options to find an eSIM that fits their needs.
Yes, there is an unlimited data eSIM plan for Rwanda. The provider Truely offers unlimited data plans that are valid for 1 to 30 days, with prices ranging from about $9.90 to $239.62 USD. These plans include tethering and run on the provider’s 5G network, although the speed may be throttled after a certain amount of usage.
Rwanda's mobile telecommunications sector is primarily served by two major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs):
MTN Rwanda: A subsidiary of the multinational MTN Group, MTN Rwanda offers a comprehensive range of mobile services, including voice, data, and value-added services.
Airtel Rwanda: Part of Bharti Airtel, Airtel Rwanda provides mobile voice and data services, catering to both prepaid and postpaid customers.
Both operators have recently launched their own 4G LTE networks, enhancing high-speed data access across the country.
Additionally, Korea Telecom Rwanda Networks (KTRN) operates as a wholesale provider, supplying 4G LTE infrastructure to other telecom companies in Rwanda.
Rwanda does not have Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs); therefore, all mobile services are provided directly by these MNOs.
Travel eSIMs that provide a phone number and SMS for Rwanda are available from GlobaleSIM and Earth Esim. GlobaleSIM offers plans with a +1 dialing code and voice inbound and outbound calling, but SMS is only inbound. Earth Esim’s plan uses a +33 dialing code and supports both inbound and outbound voice as well as inbound and outbound SMS. Because the dialing codes are not Rwanda’s (+250), the numbers are not local to Rwanda; they function as foreign numbers that can still receive calls and texts while you are in Rwanda.
Prices for these plans start around $8 and can go up to $67 for a 30‑day validity period, with data allowances ranging from 1 GB to 51 GB. If a local Rwanda phone number is not required, travelers may also choose a data‑only eSIM and use VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram or iMessage for voice and messaging over the data connection.
