Western Sahara offers travel eSIMs from eight providers and 43 prepaid data plans. While the selection is somewhat limited, travelers can still find a plan that suits their needs.

Currently, there are no eSIM plans offering unlimited data for Western Sahara. Travelers visiting the region should estimate their anticipated data usage based on planned activities like web browsing, social media, or using map applications. Selecting a plan with a sufficient data allowance to comfortably cover these activities is recommended to avoid unexpected charges or service interruptions.

In Western Sahara, mobile network services are primarily provided by operators from neighboring countries, particularly Morocco. The major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) offering coverage in the region include:

• Maroc Telecom: The largest telecommunications company in Morocco, offering extensive mobile and internet services.

• Orange Maroc: A subsidiary of the multinational Orange Group, providing a range of mobile and internet services.

• Inwi: A Moroccan telecommunications company known for its innovative services and competitive offerings.

These operators extend their services into Western Sahara, ensuring connectivity in the region.

Currently, there are no known Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs) operating in Western Sahara. MVNOs typically lease access from major carriers to offer mobile services; however, in this region, mobile services are directly provided by the primary MNOs listed above.

Travel eSIM plans that include a phone number and SMS service for Western Sahara are available from Roamify and Orange Travel. Both providers offer a 30‑day plan that comes with a 50 MB data cap, allows tethering, and provides inbound and outbound voice and SMS capabilities. Prices for these plans start around $25.00 USD with Roamify and $35.99 USD with Orange Travel, giving travelers a range of options while on short trips.

The phone numbers supplied by these plans use the dialing code +33, meaning the numbers are issued from another country and are not local Western Sahara numbers. Travelers will still be able to make and receive calls and send and receive text messages via the eSIM, but they should verify that the region’s telephone network and any required regulations permit the use of foreign numbers during their stay.
