Airalo eSIM Data Plans for Uganda

Airalo does not provide an unlimited data eSIM plan for Uganda. Instead, the provider offers fixed‑data plans with specific data allowances. Examples include the Discover – 20 GB plan, valid for 365 days at $66.00 USD, and the Ugish! – 10 GB plan, valid for 30 days at $49.00 USD. Choosing a fixed‑data plan can be more cost‑effective for most travelers, unless the user is an extremely heavy data consumer.

Airalo does not provide an eSIM for Uganda that includes a local phone number or SMS capabilities. All eSIM offerings for Uganda from Airalo are data‑only plans, so travelers cannot receive or send text messages or make traditional voice calls using a local number.

With a data‑only Uganda eSIM, users can still communicate by using data‑based applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage. These VoIP services operate over the data connection and allow reliable messaging and voice calling without requiring a phone number or SMS functionality.

Airalo offers five single‑country data plans and fifteen multi‑country plans that include Uganda. The available plans range in price from about $7 to $89 and in data from 1 GB to 20 GB, with validity periods between 7 and 365 days. The single‑country options give a fixed data amount for a set period, while the multi‑country plans provide the same data cap across several destinations, allowing travelers to switch regions without purchasing new plans.
