8 planes para Arabia Saudí, de 3 a 50 GB. La validez va de 1 día a 30 días. 8 de ellos van con 5G donde la red local la tiene.
6 planes se pueden recargar sin necesidad de instalar una segunda eSIM. Los planes funcionan en STC.
Son cuentas hechas sobre nuestro catálogo real, no una cifra de marketing: la lista de planes que tienes más arriba sale de esos mismos datos.
Ningún paquete regional cubre Arabia Saudí: aquí la única opción es un plan de un solo país, que además suele ser el más barato.
Una eSIM de viaje para Arabia Saudí es una SIM digital que se descarga tu móvil: sin tarjeta de plástico y sin mostrador en el aeropuerto. La compras por internet, tocas el enlace de instalación que te mandamos por email (en ese mismo email va también un código QR) y se instala como una segunda línea junto a la SIM que ya tienes. Se queda dormida hasta que llegas a Arabia Saudí y entonces se conecta sola a STC con 5G donde la haya y LTE en el resto. Tu número de siempre sigue funcionando para llamadas y SMS; la eSIM solo se encarga de los datos.
Los mapas, los mensajes y las apps de transporte gastan poquísimo: unos 300–500 MB al día. Si le sumas fotos, redes sociales y algún vídeo suelto, te vas más cerca de 1 GB diario. Para una semana, con 5 GB vas sobrado; para dos semanas, si compartes internet o si tiras mucho de vídeo, mejor 10 GB o más, o un plan recargable que puedas ampliar sobre la marcha. Los planes de Arabia Saudí empiezan en 12,50 € y hay 7 tamaños, cada uno con su precio por GB a la vista para que aciertes sin calculadora.
No. Una eSIM de viaje para Arabia Saudí es un plan de datos local, no roaming internacional: pagas el precio que ves y tu operador no te pasa ninguna factura por megabyte. Pon la eSIM como línea de datos, desactiva el roaming en tu SIM de siempre y al volver a casa no habrá sustos. Y como te devolvemos el dinero mientras no la instales, comprarla con antelación no tiene ningún riesgo.

Guía de conectividad de Arabia Saudí
As of mid-2026, buying a SIM card on arrival in Saudi Arabia is reported to involve a biometric step — a fingerprint scan, with your physical passport, at the counter. A travel eSIM installed before you fly involves none of that and connects when you land. This guide covers the networks, the registration an eSIM avoids, what pilgrims travelling for Hajj or Umrah should plan for, and how much data a Saudi trip needs.
