eSIM for Egypt — 15-day plans 🇪🇬
For travelers spending up to two weeks in Egypt—whether touring the Pyramids, attending meetings in Cairo, or connecting through Hurghada—this 15-day eSIM delivers data via QR activation. The validity clock starts the moment you connect to any supported local network, not at purchase. If your itinerary stretches beyond 15 days, you can simply purchase and activate a second plan on the same device.

FAQ
Who is a 15-day eSIM best suited for in Egypt?
It fits short-term tourism (week-long Nile cruises, Red Sea resort stays), business trips up to two weeks, or multi-city visits without a fixed schedule. It also works as a back-up for longer trips where you need coverage starting mid-journey.
When does the 15-day validity start?
The timer begins only after you scan the QR code and your device establishes a connection to a network in Egypt. It does not start at purchase or at the moment you receive the email.
Can I activate the eSIM before my flight to Egypt?
You can install the eSIM profile anytime after purchase, but the 15-day validity won't start until your device actually connects to an Egyptian network—so installing before departure is safe and will not waste days.
What happens if I run out of days during my stay?
Once the 15-day period expires, your eSIM will stop providing data. You can purchase a new 15-day plan from KodShop, receive a fresh QR code, and activate it on the same device without removing the expired profile.
Does the eSIM work outside Egypt if I take a short day trip?
This plan is intended solely for use within Egypt. If you travel to a neighboring country, you would need a separate eSIM or roaming arrangement for that destination.
