Collection: Egypt eSIM

Egypt sits high on the Australian bucket list — standing under the Pyramids of Giza, cruising the Nile between Luxor and Aswan, diving the Red Sea at Sharm el-Sheikh or Hurghada. Many Aussies fold Egypt into a bigger Europe or Middle East itinerary, while others plan around the cooler October-to-April months, when Cairo sightseeing is at its best. Either way, you'll want data from the moment you land — for ride-share apps across Cairo, maps through the laneways of Khan el-Khalili, and sending that first pyramid photo home.

Why an eSIM for Egypt

• Instant delivery — your eSIM arrives by email as a QR code minutes after checkout, so there's no SIM-kiosk queue after a long-haul flight into Cairo.
• Keep your Australian number — the eSIM runs alongside your normal SIM (dual SIM), so bank codes, calls and texts from home still reach you.
• 4G/5G on partner networks where available — prepaid data with no surprise roaming bill waiting at home.
• Top-ups anytime — track your live usage in the ESIMStore app and add more data mid-trip.

How it works

Buy your Egypt eSIM online, with plans from $4.30 AUD, and it lands in your inbox as a QR code within minutes. Scan it before you fly, while you've still got reliable wi-fi at home. Touch down in Egypt and your data activates — you're online before you clear arrivals. Want the full walkthrough? See how it works.

Egypt pairs well with a bigger trip. Crossing borders? Browse our Middle East eSIMs and Israel eSIM, or go wider with an Africa eSIM — and grab the ESIMStore app for iPhone and Android to keep an eye on your data as you go.

FAQs

Will my iPhone work with an eSIM in Egypt?

Yes — provided it's eSIM-compatible and unlocked. iPhones from the XS and XR onwards support eSIM, as do most recent Android phones. If yours is locked to an Australian carrier, get it unlocked before you fly.

Can I keep my Australian number while I'm in Egypt?

Yes. The eSIM sits alongside your Australian SIM in dual-SIM mode, so your normal number stays active for calls and texts. Just switch off data roaming on your Australian service so all your data runs through the prepaid eSIM.

What happens if I run out of data in Egypt?

Top-ups are available whenever you need more, and the ESIMStore app for iPhone and Android shows your live usage so you can see a shortfall coming — handy midway through a Nile cruise. Australian-based support is there if you need a hand.
