Gulf travel data eSIM
What is a Gulf eSIM?
A Gulf eSIM is a single data‑only profile designed for travelers who move between several Gulf states on one trip. Whether you’re heading to Qatar for a conference, spending a few nights in the United Arab Emirates, visiting Bahrain’s markets, or stopping in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, the eSIM lets you stay connected without swapping physical SIMs.
You purchase one plan, scan a QR code before you leave, and the eSIM activates the first time it connects to a local operator network in any of the included countries. The validity period begins at that moment, and the underlying operator may change as you cross each border, but the same plan remains in effect.

Coverage
Countries included in the Gulf eSIM
The eSIM links to a local operator network in each of the six Gulf countries—Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Iraq, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia. Data service is provided through the operator present in the country you are currently in, and the quality of that service depends on that operator’s infrastructure.

Questions people actually ask
If yours is not here, write to us — we answer within 24 hours.
Which countries does the Gulf eSIM include?
It includes 6 destinations, among them Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia. The complete list with flags is shown on this page. The plan is not valid in countries outside that list.
Can this plan be used in a country that is NOT in the list?
No. The plan works only in Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Iraq, Kuwait, and Saudi Arabia as listed on the page.
Which plan size suits a trip through two or three Gulf countries?
As a rough guide, a 3 GB or 5 GB plan often fits a short visit to two or three of the listed countries, while a 10 GB plan provides more flexibility for longer stays or heavier usage.
Will I lose my own phone number?
No. Your physical SIM stays in the phone and keeps your number for calls and WhatsApp. The eSIM only carries data, so both work side by side.
When does my plan start counting down?
When the eSIM first connects to a network at your destination — not when you buy it. So you can install it days before you fly without losing any time.
Is my phone compatible?
Most phones from 2018 onwards are: iPhone XS and later, Google Pixel 3 and later, Samsung Galaxy S20 and later. Your phone also has to be carrier-unlocked. Dial *#06# — if an EID appears, you have eSIM. Full list on our Device Compatibility page.
How fast will I get my QR code?
Usually within a couple of minutes of payment, by email. If it has not arrived, check spam first, then write to us and we will resend it immediately.
Can I use hotspot or tethering?
Yes, on every plan we sell. Share the connection with a laptop, a tablet or the rest of your group.
What if I change my mind?
If you have not installed the eSIM, you get a full refund within 180 days. Once a profile is activated and data has been used it cannot be refunded — the allowance is consumed from the network. Full detail in our Refund Policy.
Do you sell plans for groups?
Yes. For Umrah and Hajj groups, student trips and tour operators we deliver the QR codes as a single batch before departure, at group rates. Email us with your group size and destination.
