Choose your Sri Lanka plan

Fixed data suits lighter use between Wi-Fi connections. Essential is a balanced daily option for a two-week circuit; Plus gives more high-speed data each day for heavier uploads or shared usage where hotspot is supported. Match the duration and price to your itinerary and budget. Fixed data is one total allowance, not a daily reset.

Prices may change. Always check the product page for the latest prices before purchasing.

Data allowances explained

• Fixed: 1GB for 7 days; 2GB for 15 days; 3GB, 5GB, 10GB, 20GB, 50GB or 100GB for 30 days. These are total allowances, not daily amounts.
• Unlimited Lite: 1GB/day high-speed, then up to 512 kbps.
• Unlimited Essential: 1GB/day high-speed, then up to 1.25 Mbps.
• Unlimited Plus: 2GB/day high-speed, then up to 2 Mbps.

Standard Sri Lanka Unlimited options are Lite. Lite, Essential and Plus are available for 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 or 30 days, with daily high-speed resets. Reduced-speed data continues for the rest of that day after the daily allowance is used. Unlimited does not mean unrestricted high-speed data. Fixed plans end when their allowance or validity runs out, whichever comes first, without reduced-speed continuation. Actual speeds depend on connectivity.

Sri Lanka coverage and supported networks

Listed partners include Dialog Axiata, Mobitel and Hutch. The provider list includes a legacy Etisalat Lanka entry under the Hutch brand; network names may appear differently on your device. Mobitel lists 4G/5G support, while Dialog and the Hutch entries are listed up to 4G. Connection and speeds depend on your selected plan, device, supported partner, location and local conditions. Neither 5G nor service at every address is guaranteed.

Hill-country trains, safaris and boat trips

Save maps, tickets and accommodation details offline before hill-country rail journeys, Yala visits or whale-watching trips. Tunnels, remote park routes and offshore excursions can have limited or no signal. Sea or shipboard networks are not included. Confirm essential location coverage with support before buying and arrange appropriate backup communications for remote travel rather than relying on mobile data alone.

Hotspot and data-only service

Hotspot sharing is available where supported by your device and network. Shared usage counts toward the same total or daily high-speed allowance and speed limits. Confirm your selected option's sharing terms before buying if tethering is essential. Large uploads, backups and streaming can use data quickly.

This eSIM has no Sri Lankan phone number, ordinary calls or SMS. Internet-based messaging and calling depend on connectivity and app availability. If retaining your home SIM, check roaming charges, leave its data roaming off and avoid unwanted automatic data switching.

Compatibility, installation and activation

1. Check that your exact device model and regional version support eSIM and that the device is carrier-unlocked.
2. Install the emailed QR code over stable Wi-Fi through your cellular or SIM settings, following your order's instructions. Keep the QR private.
3. When ready in supported Sri Lanka coverage, enable AloOui, select it for mobile data and turn on its data roaming as instructed.

Validity starts when the eSIM connects to a supported network in Sri Lanka, not QR delivery or installation alone. If already in supported coverage, enabling the line and connecting can start the plan. Follow your purchased option's activation deadline and expiry instructions.

APN, troubleshooting and 24/7 human support

1. Confirm AloOui is enabled, selected for mobile data and has data roaming on as instructed.
2. If manual APN setup is needed, enter data.esim with username and password blank, then save/select it. Some devices configure this automatically. Follow your order if its settings differ.
3. After installation finishes, toggle airplane mode briefly or restart. Try 4G/LTE if 5G is unstable. Do not interrupt an active profile download.
4. Start with automatic network selection unless your order says otherwise. Choose a supported partner identified in your plan instructions or by support if needed.
5. Check remaining data and validity. Keep the eSIM installed while troubleshooting.

Ask support before deleting the profile, changing devices or rescanning the QR code; do not assume transfer, reinstallation or QR reuse is supported.

AloOui provides 24/7 human customer support through the Help Center. Share your order number, exact device model, location and error privately.

Also visiting other Asian destinations?

Compare the separate Asia eSIM, which lists Sri Lanka, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore among its destinations, but not India or the Maldives. Check every stop and the regional product's own allowance, validity, networks and price before buying. It is a separate purchase, not additional coverage included with this Sri Lanka plan.
