Mauritania travel data eSIM
What is a Mauritania eSIM?
When you travel to Mauritania, a data‑only eSIM lets you arrive with internet ready for navigation, translation, and local apps. Install the profile before departure, keep your regular SIM for calls, and let the eSIM activate the moment you first connect in the country. It works on compatible unlocked phones and supports hotspot sharing, so you can stay online whether you’re exploring the desert dunes or the Atlantic coast.
In Mauritania the eSIM connects to the local operator networks included in our plans. Your data allowance—whether 1 GB for a week or up to 20 GB for a month—starts counting after the first connection within Mauritania. The plan remains active for the selected period, and you can use it for web browsing, maps, and messaging without additional steps.

Questions people actually ask
If yours is not here, write to us — we answer within 24 hours.
Which operator(s) does the Mauritania eSIM use and what does that mean for a traveller?
The eSIM is provisioned on Mauritania’s local mobile operators. For a traveller, this means your data traffic is routed through their networks, giving you access to the same services that residents use while you are in the country.
Does the eSIM also work in a real neighbouring country of Mauritania?
No, this is a single‑country plan valid only in Mauritania. Regional plans are available if you need connectivity in neighboring nations such as Senegal or Mali.
Which plan size suits a trip to Nouakchott and Chinguetti?
As a rough guide, a 5 GB 30‑day plan often covers moderate use for two cities, while a 10 GB 30‑day plan provides extra buffer for heavier browsing or map 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.
