Maldives eSIM, FAQ
Do I need an eSIM for Maldives?
If you want mobile data in Maldives without paying expensive roaming fees, a travel eSIM is the easiest option. You install it before you leave and it connects automatically when you arrive.
Will my phone work with a Maldives eSIM?
Yes, as long as your phone is eSIM-capable and carrier-unlocked. Most phones from 2018 onward qualify (iPhone XR/XS and newer, recent Samsung Galaxy and Google Pixel). Dial *#06#, if you see an EID, you're good to go.
When does my Maldives eSIM start?
Your validity period begins the first time the eSIM connects to a network in Maldives, not when you buy it. Install it before you travel and it activates on arrival.
Can I keep my phone number in Maldives?
Yes. The eSIM runs alongside your normal SIM and is data-only, so you keep your home number for calls and texts while using Makkah eSIM's eSIM for data in Maldives.
I'm only transiting Maldives on the way to Umrah — is an eSIM worth it?
For a stopover of a few hours to a couple of days, a small short-validity plan keeps you reachable for gate changes, onward bookings and messages home — usually cheaper than airport roaming and faster than terminal WiFi.
Which mobile network does the eSIM use in Maldives?
In Maldives, your Makkah eSIM eSIM connects to Dhiraagu on 5G. Your phone automatically selects the strongest available signal, and personal hotspot / tethering is supported.
