There are 90+ travel eSIM brands and 1500+ prepaid data plans available for Zambia. This wide variety of options makes it easy for travelers to find an eSIM that suits their needs.
Yesim and Truely both provide unlimited‑data eSIM options for Zambia.
Truely’s unlimited plans range from $6.32 to $151.07 USD and are valid for 1 to 30 days, using a 3G network; the service allows tethering but the data speed may be throttled during high‑traffic periods.
Yesim offers unlimited data for a single day at $28.16 to $51.62 USD; the plan works on 5G and LTE networks, also allowing tethering while potentially limiting speed when network congestion occurs.
Travelers who prefer not to deal with throttling or a limited validity window can choose the price that best matches their expected usage, but these two providers are the only options that advertise unlimited data for Zambia.
Zambia's mobile telecommunications sector is served by several major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs):
MTN Zambia: A subsidiary of the South African-based MTN Group, offering a comprehensive range of mobile services, including 2G, 3G, and 4G data services.
Airtel Zambia: Part of the Indian multinational Bharti Airtel, providing extensive mobile services such as 2G, 3G, and 4G data services.
Zamtel: A state-owned telecommunications company offering various mobile services, including 2G, 3G, and 4G data services.
ZedMobile: Launched in December 2022 by Beeline Telecoms, ZedMobile is a Zambian-owned operator aiming to expand its network coverage and services.
Zambia does not have Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs); therefore, all mobile services are provided directly by these MNOs.
Travel eSIM plans that include a phone number and SMS capability for Zambia are available from a few providers. GlobaleSIM offers a range of Zambia‑targeted plans that include inbound and outbound voice, inbound SMS and use the dialing code +1, with prices starting at $6.00 USD for 7‑day data and $24.00 USD for 30‑day data, while Roamify provides a 10 GB plan valid for 30 days at $35.00 USD with inbound and outbound voice and SMS using the dialing code +33. The phone numbers in these plans are not local Zambia (+260) numbers; they come from other countries, so customers will have a foreign number while in Zambia.
