Your Afghanistan travel eSIM kicks in as soon as you arrive in Afghanistan - provided it was installed beforehand.
If you install it after you land, it should start working right away.
If you run into trouble, see our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or get in touch with us.
Yes! You can top up any time via the ZenSim app. Log in and hit the top-up button to add more days or data.
For example, if you initially bought a 30-day plan but need more, just select another 30-day top-up and you’ll stay connected.
Not until you land in Afghanistan. Installing ahead won’t start your plan; it goes live automatically when you arrive.
Make sure to install before you travel, as WiFi is required for setup and this way your Afghanistan eSIM will be ready to use when you land.
If you encounter connection issues, see our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or contact support.
Your eSIM will activate automatically once you arrive in Afghanistan. We advise installing your Afghanistan Travel eSIM before you travel (installation is distinct from activation).

Good question! Opting for a travel eSIM instead of roaming in Afghanistan offers clear advantages:
Lower Costs: Say goodbye to outrageous roaming bills by switching to a local travel package designed for Afghanistan.
Seamless Switching: Change between data plans without fumbling with physical SIM cards - perfect for spontaneous travellers.
Budget Control: Track data usage in real time and avoid surprise charges or overages.

If you're visiting multiple destinations, a better option might be one of our regional Travel eSIMs that cover entire regions like Europe or Asia.
