Zambia eSIM FAQs
Your eSIM will activate automatically once you step off the plane in Zambia. We do suggest installing your Zambia Travel eSIM before departure (installation ≠ activation).
Installation is a breeze: scan the QR code provided or install via the ZenSim app over WiFi. Upon landing, the eSIM will activate itself.

Yes! You may install the Zambia eSIM up to 30 days before you travel. It won’t connect or start using data until you arrive.
Early installation ensures you’re ready on arrival, and it won’t drain your plan until you’re in Zambia.
If you encounter an activation message on iPhone before landing, it’s usually safe to ignore — see our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide for more info.
Using a travel eSIM trumps roaming in Zambia - here’s a quick rundown:
Significant Savings: Pay local Zambia rates instead of exorbitant roaming prices set by your home carrier.
Convenient Switching: No swapping SIM cards - manage everything digitally from your phone settings.
Usage Clarity: Get real-time updates on data consumption, so you never get billed for data you didn’t need.
Definitely. In the ZenSim app, log in, and you’ll find top-up options on the main screen below your plan details.
Pick the extension that suits you — whether you need more days or more data, and complete the purchase to keep roaming freely.
No, the Zambia travel eSIM is data - only. It won’t give you a cellular voice line. If you want to call, just fire up WhatsApp, Telegram, or FaceTime using your data allowance.
No, our Zambia travel eSIMs do not include any phone number - they strictly provide internet data. For calls, use data - driven apps such as WhatsApp, Signal, or Facetime.
Absolutely! ZenSim’s eSIMs work in over 200 countries, and Zambia is one of them. We also have regional eSIMs that cover several nations on a single plan - check out our Travel eSIMs page for details.

The eSIM activates when you touch down in Zambia — if you’ve already installed it, it should connect automatically.
Installing while already in Zambia works too; it will start as soon as you complete setup.
If you experience connection issues, check our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or reach out to our support team.
Your Zambia eSIM is designed for use within Zambia, so once it's been activated there, it won’t work in other countries.
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.
Not until you land in Zambia. 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 Zambia eSIM will be ready to use when you land.
If you encounter connection issues, see our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or contact support.

Top 3 things to do in Zambia
Witness the Power of Victoria Falls
Victoria Falls, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, is a breathtaking spectacle on the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe. The falls are over 1,700 metres wide, with water plunging more than 100 metres into the gorge below. Visitors can view the falls from various viewpoints, hike along the rainforest paths, or take a boat cruise to the base. For the brave, a swim at Devil’s Pool, right at the edge of the falls, offers an adrenaline-packed experience.
