How much does an Ethiopia eSIM cost?
An Ethiopia travel eSIM from simless.pk starts at Rs 2,399 for Unlimited valid 1 day. 32 plans are available for Ethiopia, priced from Rs 2,399 to Rs 60,099, with validity from 1 day to 30 days. Data allowances run from 1.0 GB up to 50 GB. 7 unlimited-data options are also offered, subject to a fair-use policy. The live catalogue lists 5G / 4G / 3G as available network technologies; actual service varies by plan, location and device. Every currently listed Ethiopia plan is data-only: it carries mobile internet but does not include a local Ethiopia phone number, so calls and messages use internet apps such as WhatsApp. After WhatsApp support confirms the order, the QR code and activation instructions are sent by email and WhatsApp for installation on a compatible eSIM device. Prices shown are in Pakistani rupees; WhatsApp support confirms the final price and plan terms before payment. After the order is fulfilled, the eSIM can be installed over Wi-Fi before departure.

Ethiopia eSIM Guide
Ethiopia is one of the pricier destinations in our catalogue: the cheapest plan is Rs 2,399, so check your allowance against your itinerary before you buy. Simless.pk lists plans on Safaricom (Safaricom Ethiopia), with a Simien entry. The catalogue shows 5G, 4G and 3G, but expect fast data in Addis Ababa and slower, patchier data once you leave the capital.
Most visitors land at Addis Ababa (ADD), which is also a major connecting hub for the whole of Africa, so many travellers pass through for hours rather than days. A short plan covers a long layover; a larger plan suits a northern circuit through Bahir Dar, Gondar, Axum and Lalibela, where internet cafés and hotel Wi-Fi are slow. For East Africa routes compare Kenya and Tanzania; each is a separate plan.
