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.
