Seychelles travel data eSIM
What is a Seychelles eSIM?
Traveling to the Seychelles? A CometSIM eSIM gives you instant data access once you land on the islands, letting you navigate the archipelago, book ferries, and share photos without hunting for a local SIM. Install the eSIM at home, then simply scan the QR code after arrival and stay connected across Victoria, Praslin, and the other beautiful islands.
In the Seychelles the eSIM links to Airtel 4G. Your data allowance is drawn down from the moment you first connect to the Airtel network on the islands, and the plan remains active for the duration you selected, whether a short stay or a month‑long adventure.

Local networks
Which networks you connect to in Seychelles
Airtel operates the 4G network that the eSIM uses throughout the Seychelles. When you connect, you join Airtel’s infrastructure, and the extent of service depends on the operator’s own coverage in each area you visit. This lets you use maps, booking apps, and messaging wherever Airtel’s network is present.

Questions people actually ask
If yours is not here, write to us — we answer within 24 hours.
Which operator does the Seychelles eSIM use and what does that mean for a traveller?
The eSIM connects to Airtel 4G. For travellers, this means you join Airtel’s network, allowing you to use data‑dependent apps wherever Airtel’s infrastructure is available on the islands.
Can the Seychelles eSIM be used in a neighbouring country, such as Madagascar?
No, the plan is limited to the Seychelles. Regional eSIM options are offered for travelers who need connectivity in multiple nearby countries.
Which plan size suits a trip to Victoria and Praslin?
As a rough guide, the 5 GB 30‑day plan often covers moderate use for two popular destinations like Victoria and Praslin, while heavier users might consider the 10 GB option.
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.
