The (almost) 5-star eSIM
The eSIM was very easy to install and, once I reached my destination, I had a connection from the very first moment without having to worry about roaming.
Activation was quick and simple, and I had a connection the whole time with no hassle. Coverage and speed were very good.
I went on a trip around Latin America and had coverage everywhere, at a very good price. Highly recommended 💪🏼

More about the Gabon eSIM
eSIM for Gabon: internet without roaming
Traveling to Gabon with an eSIM is the easiest way to have mobile data the moment you land, without hunting for a store or swapping your physical SIM. Our eSIM connects to the local networks of Airtel Gabon and Moov Africa (Gabon Telecom), the two carriers with the best coverage in the country, so you'll have 4G signal in Libreville, Port-Gentil, or Franceville from minute one. You just need an eSIM-compatible phone and to scan a QR code.
Roaming in Gabon: why an eSIM makes sense for you
Gabon is not part of the European Union, so roaming with your carrier is billed at international rates: you typically pay between 10 and 15 € per day, or per-megabyte fees that add up before you notice. With a data eSIM you avoid that surprise bill entirely: you pay a fixed price before you travel and browse with total peace of mind. It's the difference between controlling your spending and coming home to a shock on your statement.
How much does an eSIM for Gabon cost?
Our plans for Gabon start well below the cost of a single day of traditional roaming. For a short business trip or a layover, 1 GB is usually enough for maps, messaging, and email. If you're staying one or two weeks and want to share photos, use social media, or make video calls, plan on 3 to 5 GB. You can choose the amount of GB and the number of days based on your travel pace, with no commitment or surprises.
eSIM vs. a physical SIM in Gabon
Buying a local SIM card in Gabon means finding a point of sale, showing your passport for mandatory registration, and wasting time you'd rather spend on your trip. The eSIM is 100% digital: you install it before leaving home and it activates automatically when you arrive. Plus, your usual number stays active on the same phone to receive calls or bank SMS, something that's impossible if you swap out the physical SIM.
Does the eSIM work in Libreville, Port-Gentil, and Franceville?
Yes. The coverage from Airtel Gabon and Moov Africa is solid in the main cities and tourist areas: the capital Libreville, the oil hub of Port-Gentil, Franceville, Oyem, and Lambaréné along the Ogooué River. In national parks like Loango or remote jungle areas, the signal can be more patchy, which is normal outside urban centers. You can compare this destination with others on all destinations.
How do I activate the Gabon eSIM?
After purchase you receive a QR code by email with instructions. You scan it from your phone's settings, enable data roaming for the eSIM profile, and you're set: when you arrive in Gabon you connect automatically. We recommend installing it before your flight, using your home Wi-Fi.
