Staying connected on the ground
A data eSIM keeps maps, messaging and email working as you move around Mauritania, from the capital, Nouakchott, towards the coast at Nouadhibou. Reliable data makes it easier to arrange transport, check directions and stay in touch with people back home while you travel.
Set up before you fly
Add the eSIM to your phone at home, before you leave, so there's nothing to organise on arrival. There's no SIM counter to find and no queue to join — scan the QR code in advance, then switch the plan on when you reach Mauritania and your data is ready to use.
Keep your number for calls
Your home SIM stays in the phone, so your usual number keeps receiving calls and texts while the eSIM handles data. WhatsApp and email work as normal over the connection, and you can leave roaming switched off on your main line to keep costs down.
FAQ
Is my phone compatible with an eSIM?
Most recent iPhones and many newer Android phones support eSIM, as long as the handset is unlocked. Check your model before you buy, then add the eSIM before you travel so it's ready when you arrive.
Where does the eSIM work in Mauritania?
A travel eSIM connects through local mobile networks, so it works where your phone would normally find a signal, which is strongest around towns and cities. Coverage naturally thins across the desert and remote areas.
Can I keep using WhatsApp?
Yes. Once the eSIM has data, WhatsApp for messages and calls works as usual over the connection. Your original number stays active for anything tied to it, so you don't lose your main line.
