Rwanda eSIM — FAQ
Will the Rwanda eSIM work as soon as I arrive?
Yes. Install it before you travel, and it activates automatically when your phone connects to a local network in Rwanda.
Can I use a hotspot with the Rwanda eSIM?
Yes, tethering/hotspot works on most phones, so you can share data with other devices.
Will I keep my phone number?
Yes. The eSIM is data-only, so your primary SIM keeps your number active for calls, SMS, and apps like WhatsApp.
Is Rwanda covered on 5G?
Where 5G is available locally and your device supports it, you'll get 5G; otherwise it falls back to fast 4G/LTE.
How do I install it?
