Why travellers use an eSIM in Botswana
A Botswana travel eSIM lets you add a local/partner data line without swapping plastic SIMs. Keep your home number for calls and messages while mobile data runs on the travel profile.
Order from Layer 9, receive a QR instantly, and install on Wi‑Fi before you leave. That way you are not hunting airport kiosks after a long flight.
- Instant QR delivery after purchase
- Keep your primary SIM installed
- Fixed plan pricing before you travel
- UK-based Layer 9 support
How to get online in four steps

If you are hopping multiple countries, check whether a regional plan covers every stop — otherwise buy per-country packs.
FAQ
Do you offer eSIM plans for Botswana?
Browse the live catalogue on the plans page and filter for Botswana. Destination pages stay published so travellers can find setup guidance even as packages change.
My Botswana eSIM is installed but I have no data — why?
Almost always Data Roaming is still OFF on the travel eSIM line. Turn it ON for that line only, and make sure mobile data is assigned to the eSIM.
Will this charge my home carrier?
Not if home-SIM Data Roaming stays OFF and mobile data uses the travel eSIM.
