Yesim eSIM Data Plans for Uganda

Yesim provides unlimited‑data eSIM plans that cover Uganda. The Uganda Unlimited offer gives users unlimited data for 1 day at a price of $11.63 USD, while the Africa Unlimited plan, which includes Uganda and 14 additional countries, is priced at $27.92 USD for the same 1‑day validity. Both plans support tethering and work over 3G, 5G, and LTE networks.

Like many unlimited services, speeds may be throttled after significant usage under a Fair Usage Policy. If a traveler is concerned about potential speed reductions, reaching out to Yesim directly will clarify whether FUP applies and the typical data limits that maintain normal speeds.

Yesim does not provide an eSIM for Uganda that includes a phone number or supports SMS. The eSIM plans available for Uganda are data‑only, so travelers cannot make or receive traditional calls or text messages on a local number. Instead, users can rely on internet‑based services such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage, which work over the data connection and allow calls and messaging without a phone number or SMS capability.

Yesim offers a total of 12 plans in Uganda, divided into four single‑country options and eight multi‑country options. The plans cover a price range from about $11.68 to $127.37, with data caps ranging from 3 GB up to unlimited. Validity periods for these plans extend from one day to a full year. Several of the plans allow tethering, though speed may be throttled in some cases.
