Airalo eSIM Data Plans for Uganda

Airalo does not provide an unlimited data eSIM plan for Uganda. The available packages are fixed‑data plans. For example, the Discover‑20 GB plan offers 20 GB of 4G data for 365 days at $66.00 USD, while the Discover+‑20 GB plan uses LTE and costs $89.00 USD for the same duration. Shorter‑term options include the Ugish!‑10 GB plan, which provides 10 GB of 4G data for 7, 15, or 30 days at prices ranging from $45.50 USD to $49.00 USD.

Choosing a fixed‑data plan can be more cost‑effective for most travelers unless one expects to use a very large amount of data; in that case, a different provider or carrier‑specific option might be more suitable.

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 nine single‑country data plans and fifteen multi‑country plans for Uganda. The available plans span a price range of roughly $7 to $89, with data caps from 1 GB up to 20 GB and validity periods between 3 and 365 days. Some plans provide a fixed data amount that is available for the entire validity period, while others are structured around a daily data cap that resets each day, offering flexibility depending on usage patterns.
