Question 5

Can I use my Sri Lanka tourist eSIM before arriving in the country?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can activate your Sri Lanka eSIM tourist before landing, but we recommend not doing so as it will waste validity days in non-usage periods.

Simply scan your QR code when ready, and your eSIM will instantly activate.

Question 6

Question 7

Can I install the eSIM Sri Lanka on multiple devices?

Accepted Answer

No, your Sri Lanka eSIM can only be installed once on a single device and for a single time. Once the QR code is scanned and activated, it becomes locked to that device. It cannot be reinstalled or transferred to another device. Always ensure you activate it on the device you will primarily use during your trip.

Question 8

Do I need internet access to activate my eSIM for Sri Lanka?

Accepted Answer

Yes, an active Wi-Fi or mobile internet connection is required to download and activate your Sri Lanka eSIM tourist. Hence, we recommend installing your profile back home and activating it once you arrive. With one click, your eSIM will automatically connect to the local network.

Question 9

Should I remove my original SIM while activating my Sri Lanka tourist eSIM?

Accepted Answer

No, you don’t need to remove your original SIM card to use your travel eSIM, as long as your device supports dual SIM. Keep note that any calls, incoming or outgoing, and all texts you send from your home SIM will be charged at roaming rates. We recommend using data-based calls and texts with SimCorner Sri Lanka eSIM for affordable connectivity.

Question 10

Does the Sri Lanka eSIM tourist include calls and SMS?

Accepted Answer

The Sri Lanka tourist eSIM does not include traditional voice calls or SMS. However, you can make calls and send messages using apps like WhatsApp, Skype, or FaceTime through your data connection.

Question 15

Will I get 5G speeds with my eSIM Sri Lanka?

Accepted Answer

Yes, our Sri Lanka travel eSIM connects to the best available network bands—5G where supported, and 4G/LTE elsewhere. Speed availability mainly depends on your location and whether your device supports local 5G bands or not. If 5G is unavailable in any region, you will still get fast 4G access for browsing, streaming, and navigation.

Question 16

Does the eSIM Sri Lanka work in rural or remote regions?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the Sri Lanka eSIM for tourists provides nationwide coverage, but remote areas may have slightly slower speeds, despite the best local coverage. It is better to expect a patchy connection beforehand to stay prepared accordingly if you plan to visit any unpopular, remote tourist location.

Accepted Answer

Yes, the SimCorner Sri Lanka tourist eSIM connects you to 4G/5G networks, allowing smooth HD streaming, clear video calls, and fast browsing.

Question 18

How can I check if my phone supports eSIM Sri Lanka?

Accepted Answer

You can also check your model’s compatibility online with a quick Google search.

Question 19

Can I use the Sri Lanka tourist eSIM on a locked device?

Accepted Answer

No, locked devices cannot use the Sri Lanka eSIM tourist as it only supports the carrier it is locked to. Please contact your mobile provider for unlocking steps before activating your travel eSIM. Do note that being on a postpaid plan does not imply having a locked device. Always contact your home provider for appropriate information and guidance.

Question 20

Can I use my Sri Lanka eSIM on a Wi-Fi router or tablet?

Accepted Answer

No, you cannot install your eSIM directly on a Wi-Fi router or tablet, as these plans are only supported on Android or iPhone devices. However, you can share a hotspot through your mobile device and get your tablet or other devices connected through it. This setup is ideal for remote work or travellers needing multi-device internet, offering flexibility without having to deal with multiple SIM cards.

Question 21

What if my phone doesn’t support eSIM for Sri Lanka?
