Common Questions

The details worth knowing about your Lebanon eSIM

Your eSIM connects to Alfa and touch, the two Lebanese mobile operators. Both run 4G on bands B1, B3, B8, and B20, and 3G on UMTS B1/B8. Neither has 5G. Coverage is national, but expect 3G fallback or gaps in rural and mountainous areas.

Many US phones lack band B20 (700 MHz), which both Alfa and touch use for 4G in Lebanon. Without B20, indoor and rural 4G range drops noticeably. Phones sold in Europe or Asia usually include B20 and face fewer issues.

No. The eSIM covers only Lebanon. It stops at the border. If you cross into Syria, Israel, or Cyprus, the eSIM will not connect. Purchase a separate eSIM for each country you visit.

Data is not filtered or blocked, but speeds match local network median 27.43 Mbps. Heavy congestion in Beirut or during holidays can slow throughput. No government-imposed throttling is reported, but expect typical 4G variability.

No. eSIM activation does not require passport registration or ID upload in Lebanon. Local laws require physical SIM cards to be registered, but eSIMs used by visitors are exempt. You can buy and activate instantly before travel.
