Share with your laptop
Hotspot is allowed on the plan selected above, so a second device can use the same data in a cafe or a hotel room.
Which countries does the Middle East eSIM cover?

Middle East travel data guide
A Middle East eSIM from RoamZivo is a prepaid data plan for travel across 21 countries that you install before you fly. Plans run on partner networks in 21 countries, with 5G where the operator offers it. The eSIM is data only, so your own SIM stays in for calls and texts.
There are 18 plans to choose from across 21 countries. Data sizes run from 1 GB to 50 GB, validity from 3 to 30 days, and prices start at $6.99. Hotspot sharing is supported on every plan. These plans do not offer top ups, so buy a new plan if you run low.
Your days start the first time the eSIM connects in the countries covered, 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. Travel data across the countries covered from RoamZivo arrives as a QR code by email, with a copy kept in your account.
Middle East FAQ
Does the eSIM work in every country covered?
It works in each of the countries listed, 21 in all. In each one it connects wherever the partner networks have signal, which are the same networks local customers use. The eSIM is data only.
When do my days start?
On the first connection in the countries covered, not at purchase. The plan selected above (3 GB) runs for 7 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?
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.
Does the Middle East eSIM work in Turkey and Egypt?
Yes, both Turkey and Egypt are among the 21 countries on the Middle East plan. One eSIM covers both, and the plan's days keep counting as you travel between them. You do not install anything new at the border.
Is there an unlimited Middle East eSIM?
No, the Middle East plan has fixed data only, from 1 GB up to 50 GB. If you need unlimited data in one country, check that country's own page, since several of them list unlimited plans with a daily full speed amount.
How much data do I need for two weeks in the Middle East?
For 15 days across the Middle East, 5 GB suits maps and messaging, and 10 GB adds room for social media and some video. The plan cannot be extended later, so choose the larger size if you are unsure.
Does the Middle East plan cover Dubai?
Yes, the United Arab Emirates is on the Middle East plan, so it works in Dubai and Abu Dhabi wherever the local network has signal. For a short stopover, the 3 day plans with 3 GB, 5 GB or 10 GB fit well.
When does the Middle East plan start counting?
The Middle East plan starts when the eSIM first connects to a network in any covered country. Installing it at home does not start it. From that first connection the days run without a break until the plan ends.
Do I need a new QR code for each country?
No, one QR code installs the eSIM for all 21 Middle East countries. The same eSIM connects in each one. Keep the eSIM line and its data roaming turned on as you cross borders.
What happens if I run out of data in the Middle East?
The data stops, and since no top up is available on any Middle East plan, you buy a new plan. You will need WiFi to install it. That is why we suggest sizing up before a long route.
Can I use hotspot on the Middle East plan?
Yes, hotspot is allowed on every Middle East plan. Shared data comes out of the same fixed amount. With no top up available, watch what a laptop uses, especially automatic updates and cloud backups.
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.
