“Calls & SMS didn't work at all. Could neither receive or make/send. The eSIM doesn't appear to support calls at all - it's a VoIP service via the app, but doesn't work anyway.

Many users have the same problems. Had I read the reviews before purchasing them I wouldn't have wasted my money.

Data was ok, sometimes slow even with good signal.”

“This service is a joke and a lost of money lost. It is not working in Tunisia. 90% of the time is disconnect and useless. You can get 10GB from Orange, from the airport with 8 Euro, or 27GB for 12 Euro. Cheaper and working perfect. I contacted customer service for help or refund but they don't bother to help you. I received no replay. Don't get fooled by the owner that provide a review for every comment on this site. They really don't care about you, they care only in taking your money for nothing.
July 27, 2024 update: no reaction from customer service, no refund, they don't care!”

Tunisia Travel eSIM FAQ

Everything you need to know about using eSIMs in Tunisia

How many travel eSIM brands (providers) are available for use in Tunisia, and how many prepaid data plans are there?

There are more than 140 travel eSIM providers available for use in Tunisia, and more than 5 500 prepaid data plans. With such a wide variety of plans, travelers can easily find an eSIM that suits their needs.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for Tunisia?

Yes, several eSIM providers offer unlimited data plans for Tunisia. The available plans are offered by abesteSIM, Yesim, Roamify and Truely, all of which support 5G networks and allow tethering. These unlimited plans may be subject to speed throttling, with some providers listing a reduced speed limit of 128 kbps and a maximum speed of around 5 Mbps once the throttle threshold is reached. The price ranges for the unlimited options span from as low as $2.38 to as high as $505.55 USD, giving travelers flexibility to choose a plan that matches their budget and data‑usage needs.

What are the major mobile networks available for a travel eSIM in Tunisia?

Tunisia's mobile network infrastructure is supported by three major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs):

Tunisie Telecom: The oldest and largest telecommunications operator in Tunisia, offering a comprehensive range of mobile services, including 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G data services.
Ooredoo Tunisia: A subsidiary of the Qatari telecommunications company Ooredoo, providing a wide array of mobile services, including 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G data services.
Orange Tunisia: Part of the multinational Orange Group, offering various mobile services, including 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G data services.

In addition to these MNOs, Tunisia has several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) that provide mobile services by leasing access from major carriers. Notable local MVNOs include Lycamobile Tunisie, which uses Tunisie Telecom's network, and Asel Mobile. It's important to note that most travel eSIMs rely on MNO infrastructure, not MVNOs.

Can I get a travel eSIM with a phone number and SMS for Tunisia?

Yes, travel eSIM plans that include a phone number and SMS service are available for Tunisia. Providers such as Roamify, Orange Travel, Esimtofly, and TravelKon offer eSIMs that come with a phone number (dialing codes +1 or +33), inbound and outbound voice calls, and inbound and outbound SMS. The plans typically range from 1.5 GB to 100 GB of data, 7‑day to 365‑day validity periods, and prices from about $15 USD to $105 USD.

If you require a local +216 Tunisia number, the only listed provider that supplies a local number is Airhub, but those plans list only voice services and do not indicate SMS support. Consequently, an eSIM that offers both phone number and SMS for Tunisia will use a foreign dialing code, not a local Tunisia number.
