Bahrain eSIM FAQs
Yes! Bahrain has excellent mobile network coverage throughout the country, including Manama, Muharraq, and even desert regions. Travel eSIMs provide seamless connectivity for navigation, messaging, and online browsing.
Most travel eSIMs are designed for data use, but you can make international calls using apps like WhatsApp, Skype, or FaceTime. Some providers offer additional VoIP calling options, so check your plan before purchasing if you need traditional calling services.
Absolutely! Using a travel eSIM is a whole lot better than roaming in Bahrain and here's why:
- Cost Savings: Avoid high roaming charges by using local data plans tailored to your destination.
- Flexibility: Easily switch between different data packages without the need to physically swap SIM cards.
- Control: Gain better oversight of your data usage and expenses, ensuring no unexpected fees or overages.
This depends. If you're using a regional eSIM ie. Europe or Asia, then you can use it in the countries specified on our plan page. But, if you have bought an eSIM for a specific country only, then you can only use it in that country.
The good news is, if you need to purchase an eSIM for a different country, you can do that on our website (yep the one you're on right now) in just a minute or two.
Our Bahrain travel eSIMs are data-only meaning you can only use them for internet and not calling or SMS messages, unless you use an internet based messaging service such as WhatsApp.
Connectivity: If you're having connectivity issues with your Bahrain travel eSIM check out our eSIM troubleshooting guide for a troubleshooting process or of course contact us and we will get you sorted ASAP.
Installation: If you need a hand installing the eSIM we have a helpful how to install an eSIM article which should help you, or again contact us directly and we'll do our thing.
