eSIM.
Hello, traveler.
Mozambique stretches 2,500km along the southeastern African coast — one of the continent's longest coastlines, studded with pristine coral reefs, diving, and archipelagos. The Bazaruto Archipelago and Quirimbas Islands are among the Indian Ocean's finest dive destinations. Maputo, the capital, is a Portuguese-flavoured city with remarkable Art Deco architecture and a lively café culture.

Why is Mozambique Portuguese-speaking?
Mozambique was a Portuguese colony from the 16th century until independence in 1975 after the Carnation Revolution in Portugal. Portuguese remains the official language, though dozens of Bantu languages are spoken as first languages by most of the population.
What is the Bazaruto Archipelago?
The Bazaruto Archipelago is a group of five islands 35km off the coast near Vilanculos, forming a protected marine park with exceptional snorkelling, diving, and dugong sightings. Resorts range from eco-lodges to ultra-luxury.
Is Gorongosa safe to visit?
Yes. Gorongosa National Park is one of Africa's great rewilding success stories — the wildlife was decimated during the civil war but has since recovered dramatically with support from the Gorongosa Restoration Project. The park is safe and well-managed.
What currency does Mozambique use?
The Mozambican metical (MZN). USD is accepted at lodges and tourist businesses. South African rand (ZAR) is also widely used in the south near the SA border. ATMs in Maputo and Beira dispense MZN.
What is an eSIM?
An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital SIM built into your phone. Instead of a physical card, you scan a QR code and your plan installs instantly — no SIM tray needed.
Is my phone eSIM-compatible?
iPhone XS (2018) and newer, most Android flagships from 2020+, and all Samsung Galaxy S21+ devices support eSIM. Check our compatibility page for the full device list.
How do I install the eSIM?
After purchase, we email a QR code. On iPhone: Settings → Cellular → Add eSIM → Scan QR Code. On Android: Settings → Network & Internet → SIMs → Add eSIM. The whole process takes under 60 seconds.
Can I keep my regular SIM while using this eSIM?
Yes. Most phones support dual SIM (physical + eSIM). Keep your home number for calls and SMS — use Flysimio for data abroad. You control which SIM handles what in your phone Settings.
Does the eSIM include a hotspot (tethering)?
Yes, all Flysimio plans include mobile hotspot at no extra charge. Share your data connection with laptops, tablets, or other devices freely.
What happens when my data runs out?
You can top up data from your account dashboard at any time. Top-ups are applied instantly — no need to buy a new eSIM or wait.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. We offer a full refund within 14 days of purchase. Contact contact@flysimio.com with your order number.
How long is the eSIM valid for?
You have 6 months from your purchase date to activate the eSIM. Once activated, the plan validity period (e.g., 7 days, 30 days) begins counting down.
Will the eSIM work at the airport when I land?
Yes — as long as you installed the eSIM before your flight, it activates automatically when your phone connects to a local network on landing. No Wi-Fi required for activation.
What if the QR code doesn't scan?
If the QR code won't scan, you can enter the activation code manually — we include both in the email. You can also contact our 24/7 support team and we'll resend or manually provision your eSIM.
