With such a wide variety of options, travelers can easily find an eSIM that suits their needs.
Yes, an unlimited‑data eSIM is available for travelers to Yemen. Truely offers such plans, with validity ranging from one to thirty days and prices between about $7.92 and $112.86 USD. The network is 3G and the unlimited option allows tethering, but speed may be throttled. Travelers who need more consistent speeds or higher capacity can compare other providers or choose a plan with a larger data allowance if unlimited data does not meet their specific needs.
Yemen's mobile telecommunications sector is served by several major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs):
Yemen Mobile: A state-owned operator providing CDMA services, including 2.5G and 3G technologies.
Sabafon: A private company offering GSM services, operating on 2G and 2.5G networks.
MTN Yemen: Part of the MTN Group, this operator provides GSM services, utilizing 2G and 2.5G technologies.
Y Telecom (Y): A private operator offering GSM services on 2G networks.
Additionally, HiTS-UNITEL operates as a GSM provider in Yemen.
Yemen does not have Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs); all mobile services are provided directly by these MNOs.
Travel eSIM plans that include a phone number and SMS capability are available for Yemen. The providers that offer such plans are GlobaleSIM and Roamify. Both plans provide inbound and outbound voice service; GlobaleSIM offers inbound SMS, while Roamify supports both inbound and outbound SMS.
All GlobaleSIM plans use the dialing code +1, which is not Yemen’s local code +967, and thus the numbers supplied are foreign. Roamify’s plans use dialing code +33, also not local to Yemen, meaning the phone number is foreign rather than a local Yemeni number. Validities range from 7 days up to 30 days, and prices start at about $8.50 for a 7‑day GlobaleSIM plan and $35.00 for a 30‑day Roamify plan.
