Questions about each
Emtel
How much does an Emtel travel eSIM cost?+
Entry pricing starts at €30 for the tourist pack, and reference rates vary by destination: the same allowance is listed at MUR 601 in Europe, MUR 603.85 in Japan and MUR 1,131.21 in the United States.
Is the data on Emtel plans unlimited?+
Unlimited data appears in the unlimited data, 5g and instant activation list, and the Mauritius tourist SIM is sold with unlimited data over a set validity rather than a fixed allowance. The other reference rates are priced per allowance, so the plan you pick decides the shape of the deal.
How many countries does an Emtel eSIM cover?+
Coverage runs across from 190 countries on a global basis, well above the site median of 74. Emtel is a carrier based in Mauritius, so these are the operator's own plans rather than a resale of someone else's.
Does Emtel offer 5G?+
Yes. 5G is listed for the travel range, alongside unlimited data and instant activation, and all three appear in the unlimited data, 5g and instant activation list. It is also a common feature across the site, where 72.5% of plans carry it.
