- Vodacom Mozambique: The market leader with about 52 percent of mobile subscriptions and 11.8 million customers at the end of 2025.

Is 5G available in Mozambique?
Mozambique awarded 5G licences to Vodacom, Movitel and Tmcel in 2026 after a spectrum auction, with the first rollout phase aimed at provincial capitals and urban centres. Until that build out, the country runs on 3G and 4G.
How much data do you need in Mozambique?
Light use is about 500 MB a day. That covers maps, messages, and some browsing. Normal use with photos, social apps, and short videos runs 1 to 1.5 GB a day. Streaming and hotspot use can eat 2 to 3 GB a day. Here is what each size costs in Mozambique right now:
Are unlimited eSIMs for Mozambique really unlimited?
Not always. 8 of the plans above are sold as unlimited. Most unlimited travel plans have a fair use rule. You get full speed for a daily amount, often 1 to 5 GB, then the speed drops to around 1 Mbps until the next day. That is fine for messages and maps but slow for video. If you know how much data you use, a fixed plan with a low price per GB is usually the better deal. That is why we rank by price per GB and not by labels.
eSIM or a local SIM at the airport in Mozambique?
An eSIM is ready before you land. No queue, no shop, no handing over your passport at a counter. Data for Mozambique starts at $46.65 on this page, which is hard for airport kiosks to beat. A local SIM still makes sense if you need a local phone number or plan to stay for months. For a normal trip, the eSIM wins on price and effort.
Setting up your Mozambique eSIM
Buy your planYou get a QR code by email within minutes of paying.
Install before you flyScan the QR code on wifi at home. Airport and hotel wifi can be weak.
Turn it on when you landEnable the eSIM and turn on data roaming for it, then give it a minute to find the network.
Check the validity clockSome plans start counting at purchase, not at first use. Check before you buy.
Good to know before you land in Mozambique
A passport is required to buy and register a SIM. Mozambique also shut down mobile internet and blocked social media platforms during post election protests in October and November 2024, per Human Rights Watch.
There is a Vodacom store in the international arrivals area at Maputo International Airport and a Tmcel store on the ground floor. A SIM cost 150 MT at the Vodacom stand as of April 2021.
Buy from a proper store rather than street vendors, who sometimes sell recalled or dead cards. Locals often carry Movitel for trips beyond Maputo.
Mozambique Travel eSIM FAQ
Everything you need to know about using an eSIM in Mozambique
What is the cheapest eSIM for Mozambique?
Right now the cheapest option ranked by price per GB is eSIMCard with 25 GB for 30 Days at $46.65. That works out to $1.87 per GB. Prices change often, so the table above always shows the current order.
Which networks will my eSIM connect to in Mozambique?
The plans we compare connect to Vodafone. The exact network depends on the plan you pick. Check the plan details before you buy if one network matters to you.
Do Mozambique eSIMs support 5G?
The networks our plans use in Mozambique currently run on 4G. That is enough for maps, messaging, video calls, and streaming in most cases.
Can I top up my Mozambique eSIM if I run out?
Yes. 19 of the 59 plans here support top ups, so you can add data without buying a new eSIM. The rest need a fresh plan once the data ends.
Will I still receive bank SMS and OTP codes?
Yes, if you keep your home SIM active. Travel eSIMs are data only. Your phone can hold both at once, so leave your normal SIM on for SMS and use the eSIM for data. Turn off roaming data on the home SIM to avoid charges.
Do these eSIMs include a phone number or calls?
The plans we compare are data only, so there is no local number. Calls work fine over WhatsApp, FaceTime, or any app that uses data. If you need a real local number, a local SIM is the better tool.
How many GB do I need for a week in Mozambique?
Around 3 to 5 GB covers a week of maps, messaging, and normal browsing. Heavy video or hotspot use needs 1 to 2 GB per day. Today the cheapest plan with at least 5 GB is Saily at $15.99.
