Afghanistan travel data eSIM
An Afghanistan eSIM is a digital data plan that gives your phone mobile internet across Afghanistan without a physical SIM card. You buy a plan, scan a QR code, and you are online. No plastic SIM, no airport queues.
Your home SIM stays in your phone, so you keep your normal number for calls and texts while the eSIM handles data. Cheaper than roaming, faster than finding a SIM shop when you land.
Local networks
Your MegaEsim Afghanistan plan roams on the local operators below. Your phone picks whichever gives the strongest signal where you are standing, so there is nothing to choose or set up.
6 plans are available for Afghanistan, from $6.30 up to $96.04. Every plan is data only, delivered by QR code, and starts counting when you connect on arrival.
Kabul
Herat
Mazar-i-Sharif
Kandahar
Same plan, same coverage, wherever you go in Afghanistan.
Every plan
Unlimited plans never run out. They run at full speed up to a daily allowance, then carry on at a reduced speed. Data plans give you a set amount of data to use across the whole validity period.
Prices and plan details last updated .
| Full speed each day | Validity | Per day | Price |

Once the daily allowance is used the connection keeps working at a reduced speed, then resets the next day.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 GB | 7 days | $0.90 | $6.30 |
| 3 GB | 15 days | $1.10 | $16.52 |

| 10 GB | 30 days | $1.72 | $51.52 |
| 20 GB | 30 days | $3.20 | $96.04 |
Your data lasts the whole validity period. When it runs out you can buy another plan at any time.

The alternatives
The same trip, three ways to pay for data.
Sorted before you leave home
From $6.30, fixed
Cheap, once you have one
Varies by shop
Nothing to do, and it costs
Often $10 or more a day
Everyday use
Because your home SIM stays in the phone, WhatsApp still runs on your own number, and so do iMessage and the SMS codes your bank sends. Everything else simply uses the eSIM's data, exactly as it does on Wi-Fi at home.
Getting connected
Buying and installing takes about five minutes. The only waiting happens after you land.
If plans change
Buy now and decide later. There are three situations where we refund you, and you have a long window to ask.

Planning a trip to Afghanistan? This Afghanistan Travel Data eSIM gets you online the moment you land, with plans starting at just $6.30. It connects to Roshan, the country's main network. Here is a plain guide to picking the right plan and getting set up before you fly.
Your Afghanistan eSIM connects to Roshan, the country's leading network. Coverage is strong in cities and along the main routes travelers use most.
A short trip with light use, maps, messages, a bit of social media, is well covered by a smaller plan. This Afghanistan Data eSIM starts at 1GB for 7 days for $6.30, a solid pick if you are only in Afghanistan for a few days.
For a longer stay, or if you stream music and share photos daily, step up to 3GB for 30 days at $17.50. It gives you enough headroom that you are not watching your data balance the whole trip.
After you buy, you get a QR code by email. On an iPhone, open Settings, then Cellular, then Add eSIM, and scan the code. On Android, open Settings, then Network, then SIMs, and add an eSIM the same way. Do this before you leave, while you still have wifi, then just switch on data roaming for the new line once you land in Afghanistan.
Home network roaming in Afghanistan can rack up several dollars a day fast, and airport SIM counters mean lines, paperwork and a physical card to keep track of. Install this eSIM before you fly, land, switch it on, and you are connected within a minute, no counters, no plastic, no surprise bill.
