Our unlimited plans stop at 15 days: Unlimited Smart costs \u20ac39.90 for 15 days, so four weeks take two eSIMs for \u20ac79.80. Airalo charges \u20ac81.50 for 30 days of unlimited data, Holafly \u20ac84.50 for 28 days. Prices as of 30 September 2026.<\/p>\n<p>For \u20ac1.70 more than our two eSIMs, Airalo&#8217;s 30-day plan gives you 3 GB of high-speed data a day instead of 1 GB, on one eSIM with one install. If you stream every evening or work on a laptop through your phone, that plan suits a four-week stay better than ours on the survey date. Our Unlimited L with 2 GB a day also ends at 15 days and costs \u20ac149.80 for 30 days.<\/p>\n<h2>Which plan fits 14, 21 or 28 days in Egypt?<\/h2>\n<p>Most winter stays in Hurghada, El Gouna, Sharm el-Sheikh or Marsa Alam come with Wi-Fi where you sleep, so the question is how much you use outside.

Offers may change. POVNOMAD Unlimited Smart and L give 1 or 2 GB of high-speed data per 24 hours, then up to 1 Mbit\/s. Our unlimited plans cannot be topped up, so a second period means a second eSIM. Exactly 28 days of Unlimited Smart cost \u20ac75.70 with three eSIMs (15 + 10 + 3 days). Airalo slows its Egypt plans to 1 Mbps after 3 GB a day and describes its eSIMs as rechargeable online. Holafly names no threshold, says any throttling lasts one day at most and limits hotspot sharing to 1 GB a day.<\/small><\/p>\n<p>Our product page puts a week of maps, messaging and photos at about 3 GB. At that pace, four weeks use about 12 GB, so the 20 GB plan leaves room and costs less than any unlimited offer in the table. If you video-call home every day or share a hotspot with your partner, unlimited data saves you from counting. At 21 days, Holafly costs \u20ac3.70 more than our two Smart eSIMs and names no daily threshold. For stays of one to two weeks, our <a href=\"https:\/\/povnomad.com\/en\/esim-egypt-provider-comparison\/\">Egypt eSIM comparison<\/a> lists every unlimited duration from 3 to 30 days.<\/p>\n<h2>How do you get past the 15-day limit?<\/h2>\n<p>You buy a second eSIM before you leave. Our unlimited plans cannot be topped up, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/povnomad.com\/en\/produkt\/esim-top-up-top-up-selected-countries\/\">top-up page<\/a>. Validity starts on first contact with the partner network in Egypt, not at purchase, so both eSIMs can wait on your phone.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>At home on Wi-Fi: install both Egypt eSIMs (<a href=\"https:\/\/povnomad.com\/en\/esim-installation-instructions-for-android-and-apple\/\">instructions for iPhone and Android<\/a>) and label them &#8220;Egypt 1&#8221; and &#8220;Egypt 2&#8221;. Switch the second line off.<\/li>\n<li>After landing in Hurghada, Sharm el-Sheikh or Marsa Alam: turn on &#8220;Egypt 1&#8221;, set it as your mobile data line and enable data roaming for it.<\/li>\n<li>On day 15: your eSIM link shows the remaining validity under &#8220;Check Usage&#8221;. Turn on &#8220;Egypt 2&#8221;, make it your data line, enable data roaming and switch &#8220;Egypt 1&#8221; off.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Staying six or eight weeks? Take a data plan. Each top-up of a data eSIM adds data and extends its validity by up to 30 days. You book it at least 24 hours before the eSIM expires and keep the same eSIM for the whole stay.<\/p>\n<h2>Which network: Etisalat, Orange or Vodafone?<\/h2>\n<p>Our Egypt eSIM connects to Etisalat or Orange, with 4G and 5G where available. The product page gives both as examples, and your eSIM link lists the current partners under &#8220;Networks&#8221;. Airalo runs its Egypt eSIM on Vodafone, Holafly names Orange (Mobinil). As of 30 September 2026.<\/p>\n<p>No provider promises signal at a particular reef or desert camp. Our product page warns of limited coverage or lower speed in remote regions. If one network is weak at your hotel, pick the other partner network by hand under Settings &gt; Mobile networks &gt; Network operators. Which plan suits which resort on a one-week holiday is in our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/povnomad.com\/en\/esim-hurghada-cairo-sharm-el-sheikh\/\">Hurghada, Cairo and Sharm el-Sheikh<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Do WhatsApp calls work in Egypt?<\/h2>\n<p>Not reliably on Egyptian networks, according to the most recent report we found. In &#8220;Freedom on the Net 2025&#8221;, Freedom House writes that the regulator NTRA announced in late 2024 that it would lift the long-standing ban on internet calls such as WhatsApp or Viber calling. At the end of the report period in May 2025 the ban was still in place and several of these services remained inaccessible (<a href=\"https:\/\/freedomhouse.org\/country\/egypt\/freedom-net\/2025\">Freedom House<\/a>). We found no reliable newer source.<\/p>\n<p>Our Egypt eSIM hands your data over to the internet in the UK or Norway, according to the product page. We have not tested WhatsApp calls on it in Egypt, so we promise nothing. Your home SIM stays active next to the eSIM: your number stays reachable for regular calls and texts, such as your bank&#8217;s verification codes, and your provider bills those at its rates for Egypt.<\/p>\n<h2>Where does the signal stop on dive boats and desert trips?<\/h2>\n<p>The days of your plan keep running while you are out of signal on a dive boat or in the desert, because validity counts from the first connection. Before a liveaboard or a desert tour, download offline maps and your booking documents.<\/p>\n<p>Bringing in a satellite phone can lead to confiscation, and drones need prior approval (as of 30 September 2026).<\/p>\n<h2>Local SIM or eSIM: what changes after 90 days?<\/h2>\n<p>Since 21 January 2026, Egypt no longer exempts phones that travellers bring in from customs duty. A local tourist SIM, sold by every Egyptian operator against a passport, carries a 90-day exemption per stay. After that, phones without cleared duty are cut off from all Egyptian networks (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecofinagency.com\/news-digital\/2101-52105-egypt-to-end-phone-tax-exemptions-sets-90-day-grace-period\">Ecofin Agency<\/a>, 21 January 2026). If you keep using your international SIM, you pay nothing, the head of Egypt&#8217;s customs authority told EnterpriseAM on the same day.<\/p>\n<p>A travel eSIM like ours is a foreign SIM roaming on Egyptian networks, which is why you enable data roaming for it. The 90-day rule matters if you spend a long winter on a local SIM. What a local SIM needs, what the customs charge on your phone amounts to and which network to pick is in <a href=\"https:\/\/povnomad.com\/en\/egypt-sim-card-for-tourists\/\">Egypt SIM Card for Tourists<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>What does your home contract cost in Egypt?<\/h2>\n<p>Egypt is outside EU roaming. Without a travel add-on, a German Vodafone contract charges \u20ac0.94 per 50 kB of data there, roughly \u20ac19 per megabyte (Vodafone InfoDok 443, September 2026). The EU cost cap stops mobile data at close to \u20ac50 excluding VAT a month unless you have opted out (<a href=\"https:\/\/eur-lex.europa.eu\/legal-content\/EN\/TXT\/?uri=CELEX:32022R0612\">Regulation (EU) 2022\/612<\/a>, Article 14(4) and (8)). At Vodafone&#8217;s rate you reach that after about 3 MB. Turn off data roaming on your home SIM before you land. For cash on a long stay, our guide to <a href=\"https:\/\/povnomad.com\/en\/atm-fees-egypt\/\">ATM fees in Egypt<\/a> lists which machines charge a fee.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n<div class=\"pnm-faq\">\n<h3>How much is an eSIM for 14 days in Egypt?<\/h3>\n<p>At POVNOMAD, 10 GB valid for 30 days cost \u20ac18.90, and 15 days of Unlimited Smart with 1 GB of high-speed data a day cost \u20ac39.90. Airalo charges \u20ac44.50 for 15 days of unlimited data with 3 GB a day, Holafly \u20ac44.90 for 14 days. As of 30.09.2026.<\/p>\n<h3>Is there an Egypt eSIM with unlimited data for a whole month?<\/h3>\n<p>Airalo sells 30 days for \u20ac81.50, Holafly 28 days for \u20ac84.50 or 30 days for \u20ac90.50. POVNOMAD&#8217;s Egypt unlimited plans end at 15 days, so two Unlimited Smart eSIMs cover 30 days for \u20ac79.80. Our <a href=\"https:\/\/povnomad.com\/en\/produkt\/afrika-esim-21-laender\/\">Africa eSIM<\/a> (21 countries) has 21 days of Unlimited Smart for \u20ac125.90, which only pays off if you travel on. As of 30.09.2026.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I top up my Egypt eSIM instead of buying a new one?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes for data plans, no for unlimited ones. A top-up adds data and extends the validity by up to 30 days, and you book it at least 24 hours before the eSIM expires. Unlimited Smart and Unlimited L cannot be topped up, so a second unlimited period needs a second eSIM.<\/p>\n<h3>Which network does the eSIM use in Hurghada and Marsa Alam?<\/h3>\n<p>The POVNOMAD Egypt eSIM connects to Etisalat or Orange nationwide, with 4G and 5G where available. Airalo uses Vodafone and Holafly uses Orange (Mobinil), as of 30.09.2026. In remote regions coverage thins out, and our product page warns of limited coverage or lower speed there.<\/p>\n<h3>Do WhatsApp calls work with an eSIM in Egypt?<\/h3>\n<p>Nobody can guarantee it. Freedom House reported that Egypt&#8217;s ban on internet calls such as WhatsApp calling was still in place at the end of May 2025, although the regulator had announced in late 2024 that it would lift it. Our Egypt eSIM routes data via the UK or Norway, but we have not tested WhatsApp calls on it in Egypt.<\/p>\n<h3>Will my phone be blocked in Egypt after 90 days?<\/h3>\n<p>Not because of a foreign SIM or eSIM: travellers who keep using their international SIM pay no duty, according to Egypt&#8217;s customs authority. The 90-day exemption applies to phones used with a local tourist SIM, per stay. After that, phones without cleared duty are cut off from Egyptian networks. Rules in force since 21 January 2026.<\/p>\n<h3>Does my eSIM work on a diving safari or in the desert?<\/h3>\n<p>Only where a partner network reaches. Our product page warns of limited coverage or lower speed in remote regions, and the days of your plan keep running while you are offline.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>As of 30 September 2026.
