Gulf plans are for trips around the Arabian Gulf, such as a stopover in one Gulf state combined with time in a neighbouring one. One plan covers every country on its list, so you can move between them without changing SIM. Local rules on internet calling apps differ by country, so check what applies where you are going.

  • How long do Gulf eSIM plans last?

  • Do Gulf eSIMs support 5G and hotspot?

    Plans connect on 4G and 5G where the local network supports it. Hotspot and tethering are supported, and shared devices use your plan's data allowance.

  • Can I top up a Gulf eSIM?

    Some plans can. 8 of 12 plans are reloadable, so you can add data from your account when your allowance runs low. The others cannot be topped up, so buy a new eSIM when the data is used up.

  • Do I need an unlocked phone?

    Yes. Your phone must support eSIM and be unlocked for use with another provider.

Before you buy: check your phone, estimate your data needs and read how eSIMs work.
