Sri Lanka 50GB eSIM

Among the listed data plans, the cheapest is 100 MB for 7 days, with 500 MB for 7 days next up; both are for brief, careful use. There is no plan with exactly 14 days of validity, so a stay of 2 weeks fits the 15-day option. For a trip of about one month, compare 3 GB for 15 days at €2.85 with 3 GB for 30 days at €2.85: same allowance over twice the validity. A 10 GB / 30-day plan costs €9.08, and 50 GB for 180 days is available for a much longer stay. The smaller plans are more affordable upfront, but the plan with the best price per gigabyte isn't always right for a short trip. Which plan is the best value depends on your trip length and daily usage, so decide on allowance and validity as a pair.

These are small fixed totals valid for 7 days, so even a 1 day visit sits inside the same window. They can cover occasional messages or a quick lookup, but maps, app updates, photos and streaming video like YouTube eat through them fast. Download your essentials over Wi-Fi first, and step up to a GB plan if you expect to be online through most of each day of your vacation.

Listed networks: SLT-Mobitel. Connects to 4G/LTE where available. 5G is not confirmed on this plan. Speeds and signal vary with your phone, location and network conditions. These plans don't list 5G support, so expect 4G/LTE where it's available. The allowance you choose doesn't change the network or improve reception. We don't claim best coverage for any operator; signal depends on your phone, location and local conditions.

Confirm your exact model and regional variant support eSIM, and that the phone isn't locked to a carrier. An eSIM is a virtual sim card loaded onto the phone. On an iPhone running iOS, look for Add eSIM under Cellular or Mobile Data and No SIM Restrictions under Settings > General > About; on Android, follow your manufacturer's own eSIM setup steps. Check the compatibility guide for the full list of compatible phones.

Install over reliable Wi-Fi and keep the setup instructions saved. Then follow the activation steps that came with your order: installing a profile and starting its validity are not necessarily the same moment, and the trigger depends on those supplied instructions. Don't count on instant installation; set aside a few quiet minutes before you fly. On arrival, set the travel line as your mobile data source and apply any roaming or APN settings to that line as directed, using the QR code or steps provided.

An existing WhatsApp or other messaging account works over the eSIM's internet connection. The plan has no ordinary calls, SMS or local phone number. Verification texts still go to the number and service you registered, so set up transport and banking apps before you leave.

The listed networks support hotspot. Any device you connect draws from the same data allowance. Every device you connect draws from the same purchased allowance, so tethering a laptop to the data hotspot counts against it too. Pause automatic updates and cloud backups before you connect, and save large downloads for Wi-Fi.

Allowances run from 100 MB to 50 GB with 7-, 15-, 30- and 180-day options, and each is a fixed total rather than a daily refill. None of these offers is unlimited, and there's no monthly subscription that renews automatically. Track usage on your device and match the validity to your whole stay; leftover data doesn't roll over as a new daily amount.

These plans list Sri Lanka as the only included country, so a tourist can keep one profile between cities while data and validity remain. The listing doesn't guarantee service at every address or establish coverage on a specific remote route. Check whether the listed operator reaches your intended destination and keep an offline backup.

Confirm you're in Sri Lanka, the travel line is on and selected for mobile data, and the plan still has data and validity. Apply the supplied APN and roaming instructions, then try a brief airplane-mode toggle or a restart. Move somewhere with better signal if reception is weak. Keep the profile installed and note your device model, location and order reference when you ask for help.

Set the travel eSIM as your mobile data line, switch off automatic data switching and keep data roaming off on your regular line. Any roaming setting the eSIM needs applies only to that line. Calls or texts on your home line may still trigger charges under your carrier's terms.

Check the options that came with your order before buying again. A separate purchase won't necessarily extend your current validity, reuse the same installed profile or carry over remaining data, and the exact top up rules aren't confirmed here. Follow the instructions for that particular purchase and keep the existing profile until you're advised otherwise.

Keep your order reference and setup details handy when you request help. Read the purchase conditions for refund eligibility and the contact method supplied with your order; those documents, not this page, settle the plan's support and refund features. Installation, activation and usage can affect those conditions; a connection problem alone doesn't prove refund eligibility. If you're searching for a no contract option, the purchase terms are where that gets settled.
