Egypt travel eSIM: 30 consecutive days of data from the moment you scan the QR. Designed for tourism, short business trips, or extended layovers — no local SIM hunt, no roaming contracts. Valid for consecutive days (not usage days), so a 7 April activation covers 7 April through 6 May inclusive.

FAQ
Is this 30-day eSIM meant for tourists, business travellers, or transit passengers?
It suits all three. Tourists exploring Cairo, Luxor, or the Red Sea coast; business travellers attending meetings or conferences; transit passengers who need connectivity during a layover longer than a day.
How is the 30-day validity counted — from activation or from the first data use?
Validity starts immediately upon scanning the QR and activating the eSIM. It runs for 30 consecutive calendar days (24-hour periods), not 30 days of active usage.
What happens to remaining data if my trip runs longer than 30 days?
The eSIM expires at the end of the 30-day window, and unused data is forfeited. For trips exceeding 30 days, purchase a second eSIM before the first expires, or choose a longer validity plan if available.
Can I activate the eSIM before my departure to Egypt?
Yes, you can scan the QR at any time — even before you fly. However, the 30-day countdown begins at activation. Best practice is to activate once you land or at the airport just before departure to maximise the window.
What devices support QR-based eSIM activation for this Egypt plan?
Most modern unlocked smartphones released after 2018 — iPhones from XS/XR onward, Google Pixels 3 and newer, Samsung Galaxy S20 and later, and other Android devices with eSIM capability. Check your phone's Settings > About Phone for eSIM support.
