A dash means the provider does not publish this, not that the feature is missing.
“Unlimited” plans are capped by a daily fair-use limit. The allowance shown is the provider's stated ceiling, not a speed guarantee.

Frequently asked about eSIMs for Afghanistan
What is the cheapest eSIM for Afghanistan?
Saily at $5.49 for 1 GB over 7 days. That is the lowest price of the 22 plans tracked here. It is not the best value per gigabyte — small packages rarely are — so check the price-per-GB column before buying if you expect to use more than a couple of gigabytes.
Which eSIM gives the best value per GB in Afghanistan?
Nomad: 20 GB for 30 days at $45.00, which works out at $2.25 per gigabyte. Value per gigabyte matters more than headline price on any trip longer than a weekend.
Are there unlimited eSIM plans for Afghanistan?
No. None of the 22 plans currently tracked for Afghanistan is sold as unlimited.
Which mobile networks do these eSIMs use in Afghanistan?
The providers that publish it list Roshan. Not every provider discloses its network partner, and where one does not, this site shows a dash rather than guessing.
How current are these prices?
They were last read from each provider's own page on 11/2/2026. Prices are re-checked every day and the per-plan date is shown on every row; if a provider cannot be read, its plans keep their previous figures and are marked as carried over.
Some links on this page are affiliate links. If you buy through them we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. It never changes the prices shown or the order of the results.
