Syria's mobile telecommunications sector is served by three primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs):

• Syriatel: Established in 2000, Syriatel is one of Syria's leading mobile operators, offering GSM, 3G, and 4G/LTE services.

• MTN Syria: Formerly known as Areeba, MTN Syria provides GSM and 3.5G broadband 4G (LTE) services.

• Wafa Telecom: Granted a license in 2022, Wafa Telecom is the newest entrant in the Syrian mobile market, with exclusive rights to operate 5G services.

Currently, there are no significant Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) in Syria. Most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure provided by the major MNOs listed above.

Travel eSIM plans that provide a phone number and SMS support are available for Syria. Earth Esim’s Orange Global eSIM offers 20 GB of data for 30 days at $24.00 USD and includes an international phone number with dialing code +33, allowing inbound and outbound voice calls and SMS. Because +33 is not the local Syrian dialing code of +963, the number is not local to Syria but can still be used for communication while travelling.
