Zambia offers more than 100 travel eSIM brands and over 1800 prepaid data plans. The extensive selection of pre‑paid plans provides a wide variety of options, making it easy for travelers to find an eSIM that suits their needs.
There are unlimited data eSIM options for Zambia from two providers. Truely offers unlimited data with a validity period of 1 to 30 days; the plan costs between roughly $6.32 and $151.07 and is available on a 3G network. Yesim also provides an unlimited option, available for one day at a price range of about $28.38 to $52.03, and covers 3G, 5G, and LTE networks. Both plans allow tethering, and the speed may be throttled during higher traffic periods. The overall price range for unlimited data stays approximately between $6 and $150.
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.
