Is eSIM available in Papua New Guinea?

Yes. Ahlano sells eSIM data plans made for travellers visiting Papua New Guinea. The eSIM is a digital SIM that lives inside your phone, so there is no plastic card to collect or swap. If you have never used one, our guide to what an eSIM is and how it works explains it in plain words.

Your phone needs to support eSIM and be unlocked. Most recent iPhone and many Android models do, but check your exact model before you buy.

Choosing a plan for Papua New Guinea

You can pick from 12 plans, starting at USD 5.54. Data goes up to 20 GB, and validity runs from 1 to 30 days, so you can match the plan to the length of your stay.

• Short visit: a smaller plan covers maps, messages and booking checks.
• Longer stay or work trip: choose more data and the longest validity.
• Not sure: start small. You can check the data left and top up later.

For a quick stopover, the smallest short-trip plan is a simple place to begin. Travelling on to nearby islands too? Browse plans across Oceania.
