In Uganda, Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) provide mobile services by leasing access from major carriers. One such MVNO is Lycamobile, which operates in partnership with Tangerine Limited. It's important to note that most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) rather than MVNOs.
Travel eSIM plans that include a phone number with voice calls and SMS are available for Uganda. Providers such as GlobaleSIM, Roamify, LinkeSIM, Esimtofly, Earth Esim, Orange Travel, and TravelKon offer these plans. Prices vary from about $7.00 USD for 1GB/7 days up to $105.00 USD for 20GB/365 days, and validity ranges from 7 days to 365 days.
All of the plans in the dataset use dialing codes that are not Uganda’s (+256). The number is either a +1 (United States/Canada) or a +33 (France) number, so the eSIM does not provide a local Uganda phone number. Voice is inbound and outbound and SMS is inbound or inbound/outbound, depending on the specific plan.
