Sri Lanka offers roughly 110 travel eSIM providers and about 3 500 prepaid data plans. The wide range of plans gives travelers plenty of options to find an eSIM that suits their needs.
Unlimited data eSIM options are available for Sri Lanka from several providers.
Firsty offers a free one‑day plan that includes ads and a speed limit of 256 kbps, while Roamify, Yoho Mobile, Truely, abesteSIM and Yesim provide unlimited data for 1 to 30 days, all with some form of speed throttling; Yoho Mobile and abesteSIM additionally cap speed at 5 Mbps.
Prices for these unlimited plans range from free to around $450 USD, with most plans falling between $5 and $120 USD depending on the provider and validity period.
Sri Lanka's mobile telecommunications sector is served by several major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), each offering a range of services:
Dialog Axiata PLC (Dialog): The largest mobile operator in Sri Lanka, providing extensive 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G coverage across the country.
SLT-Mobitel (Mobitel): A subsidiary of Sri Lanka Telecom, offering comprehensive mobile services with a focus on innovation, including 4.5G LTE and exploration of 5G capabilities.
Hutchison Telecommunications Lanka Ltd (Hutch): Following its merger with Etisalat Lanka, Hutch has expanded its network and customer base, focusing on affordable data plans and reliable 4G connectivity.
Airtel Lanka: A subsidiary of India's Bharti Airtel, known for competitive pricing and a focus on mobile data services.
As of now, Sri Lanka does not have Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs). Therefore, most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure provided by the major MNOs listed above.
Yes, travel eSIMs that provide a phone number and SMS are available for Sri Lanka. GlobaleSIM offers a range of plans from 1 GB to 20 GB with validity from 7 days to 30 days and pricing that starts at $4.00 USD. Roamify provides options from 1 GB to 20 GB that can be used for up to 365 days, with prices beginning at $15.00 USD. All of these plans use the international dialing code +1, so the phone number will be a United States or Canada number rather than a local Sri Lankan number; one Roamify plan uses the French code +33, which also results in a foreign number. Both providers support inbound voice calls and inbound SMS, and some Roamify plans also allow outbound SMS, giving travelers the ability to receive and send text messages while in Sri Lanka.
