Mauritius travel data guide
A Mauritius eSIM from RoamZivo is a prepaid data plan for Mauritius that you install before you fly. Plans in Mauritius run on Emtel and my.t, with 5G where the operator offers it. The eSIM is data only, so your own SIM stays in for calls and texts.
There are 10 plans to choose from. Data sizes run from 1 GB to 3 GB, validity from 1 to 30 days, and prices start at $4.99. Unlimited plans are listed too, each with its own fair use line. Hotspot sharing is supported on every plan. Top ups are available on some of the fixed data plans and go onto the same eSIM.
Visiting more than one country? The Africa eSIM covers Mauritius and 20 other countries on one plan, from $8.99.
Your days start the first time the eSIM connects in Mauritius, not when you buy, so you can install it at home days early. For a week of maps, messaging and social apps, most travellers are fine with 3 to 5 GB. Video calls or streaming need more, or an unlimited plan. Travel data in Mauritius from RoamZivo arrives as a QR code by email, with a copy kept in your account.
Mauritius FAQ
Does the eSIM work everywhere in Mauritius?
It connects wherever Emtel and my.t have signal, which is the same network local customers use. The eSIM is data only.
When do my days start?
On the first connection in Mauritius, not at purchase. The plan selected above (2 GB) runs for 15 days from that moment. You can install the eSIM at home and the clock stays still until you connect.
Do I get a local phone number in Mauritius?
No. The eSIM is data only. Your own SIM stays in for calls and texts, and WhatsApp keeps working over the eSIM data.
Can I share data with my laptop?
Yes. Hotspot sharing is supported on the plan selected above, so your laptop or tablet can use the eSIM data through your phone.
How much data do I get per day on an unlimited Mauritius eSIM?
An unlimited Mauritius eSIM gives full speed up to 3 GB per day. After that the speed is limited to up to 1 Mbps until the next day. Data keeps flowing, only more slowly.
Is there a 30 day fixed data plan for Mauritius?
No, the longest fixed plan for Mauritius is 3 GB valid for 15 days. For a stay of up to 30 days, the unlimited plan of that length is the one to buy.
Is 5G available with the eSIM for Mauritius?
Some plans are sold as 4G/5G, and Emtel is listed with 5G in our catalogue. The other operator, my.t, is listed with 4G. We do not promise 5G in any specific part of Mauritius.
Can I set up the Mauritius eSIM at the airport?
It is better to do it at home. Installing needs an internet connection, and you may not have one when you land. Installing early does not start the plan, which only begins at the first connection in Mauritius.
Do I need to switch off my home SIM in Mauritius?
No, keep it on so you still receive calls and texts. Just turn data roaming off for the home SIM and choose the eSIM as the mobile data line, so your carrier cannot charge you for data.
Can my partner use my Mauritius eSIM through hotspot?
Yes, hotspot is allowed on all Mauritius plans. Both of you then draw from the same data. On an unlimited plan you share the 3 GB daily full speed amount between the two phones.
What happens when a fixed Mauritius plan runs out?
The data stops when the allowance is used or the days end. Some Mauritius plans support top up. If yours does not, buy another plan, install it as a new eSIM and delete the empty one.
How do I top up if I run low?
The plan selected above does not offer top ups. Buy a new plan from this page instead and install it as a second eSIM.
