Will my phone work with a Tunisia eSIM? Most phones from the last few years support eSIM, including recent iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, and Google Pixel models. Check your settings for an eSIM or digital SIM option.
When should I install it? Install at home before you travel. Activation typically begins when you connect to a Tunisian network, so you're online the moment you land.
Can I keep my WhatsApp and phone number? Yes. The eSIM only adds data. Your usual number stays active, so WhatsApp, calls, and texts keep working as normal.
