Which option is best: eSIM, roaming or local SIM?
- Roaming: convenient but carrier day passes are often expensive, and easy to forget about until the bill arrives.
- Local SIM: fine for long stays, but usually needs a shop visit, your passport, and removing your home SIM.
- Travel eSIM: ready before you fly, no shop visit, and your normal SIM stays in the phone. For most holidays and family visits it is the least hassle.
Three steps to get online
Step 1: choose your Tunisia plan on yrh.ai and pay by card or PayPal. Step 2: check your email; the QR code arrives within minutes. Install it while on Wi-Fi, before you leave home. Step 3: when you land in Tunis-Carthage, Enfidha or Djerba, set the eSIM as your mobile data line and turn on data roaming for it.
Dual SIM: keep WhatsApp and your bank texts
Your eSIM handles internet; your home SIM keeps receiving calls and SMS. That way bank codes, card alerts and messages from work still reach you. WhatsApp stays on your usual number, so there is no need to tell anyone a new contact. Just make sure mobile data on your home line is switched off to avoid roaming charges.
Short holiday vs long stay
A one-week resort holiday with mostly hotel Wi-Fi needs only a small plan for maps, messages and photos on the go. If you are staying a month with family, working remotely or video calling every day, a larger GB plan with longer validity makes more sense. Sharing with kids' tablets via hotspot? Size up so nobody runs out.
Tunis, Djerba and Sousse: local tips
In Tunis, data helps with ride apps, finding your way around the medina and getting out to Sidi Bou Said or Carthage. In Sousse and Hammamet, it means you are not tied to the hotel lobby for Wi-Fi. On Djerba, handy for exploring Houmt Souk or the beaches beyond your resort. If you head south toward the Sahara, download offline maps first, as signal in remote areas can be limited.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Tunisia eSIM include a phone number or regular calls?
No. It is a data-only eSIM, so there is no local number and no standard calls or SMS. Keep your own SIM for texts and use WhatsApp for calls over the eSIM data.
Can I share the data with a hotspot?
Yes. Hotspot (tethering) is allowed on every plan, so you can share your data with a laptop, tablet or a family member's phone.
Will it work on my phone?
Your phone must support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked. If you are unsure, message us on WhatsApp before you buy.
When does the validity period start?
It depends on the plan. The exact activation rule and number of days are shown on each plan page, so check there before you buy.
What if it does not work?
Works or your money back: if the eSIM does not connect and our support team cannot fix it, you get a full refund. You also get a full refund if you have not installed it within 30 days.
