How does Simbye eSIM work for Morocco?
Set it up at home
After purchase the eSIM arrives by email: a link that installs it in one tap, plus a QR code and the details for manual entry. Do this on Wi-Fi before you fly. The eSIM then sits ready in your phone while your usual SIM stays active next to it — nothing is used up yet.
Switch it on when you arrive
Whether you land at Casablanca (Mohammed V), Marrakech (Menara), Agadir (Al Massira), Tangier (Ibn Battouta), Fès (Saïss), Rabat-Salé, Essaouira, Nador or Oujda, or arrive by ferry at Tanger Med: turn off airplane mode, turn on data roaming for the eSIM and set mobile data to the eSIM. You will usually have signal before your bag reaches the belt.
Validity, top-ups
The days start counting with your first connection in Morocco, not at purchase — so you can order weeks ahead. You can see how much data is left in your account and top up at any time without reinstalling the eSIM. Using a hotspot for a laptop or a travel companion is allowed.
Check Device Compatibility
Make sure your device supports eSIM before purchasing
Which networks will you be on in Morocco?
The eSIM signs in to Maroc Telecom or Inwi on its own — there is nothing for you to set.

Your eSIM uses two networks in Morocco: Maroc Telecom and Inwi. You do not pick one — switch off airplane mode after landing and the phone registers by itself, usually within a minute or two. Only two settings matter: data roaming has to be on for the eSIM, and the eSIM has to be the line selected for mobile data. You do not enter an APN. If the signal bar stays empty, turn airplane mode on and off once; only if that fails should you switch network search from automatic to Maroc Telecom or Inwi in the settings.
Coverage is solid in the cities: Casablanca, Rabat, Marrakech, Fès, Meknès, Tangier, Tetouan, Agadir, Essaouira and Chefchaouen run on 4G throughout, as does the motorway from Tangier via Rabat and Casablanca to Marrakech and on towards Agadir, and the high-speed line Tangier–Kenitra–Casablanca. This eSIM runs on 4G/LTE — plan on 4G everywhere, which is plenty for maps, video calls and uploads; we do not promise 5G. It gets thin exactly where most people are headed: the High Atlas around Imlil and Toubkal, the Tizi n'Tichka pass, the Dades and Todra gorges, the desert camps near Merzouga and M'Hamid, and parts of the Rif. Expect hours without a signal there, and download maps, tickets and addresses in advance.
eSIM or a local SIM card in Morocco?
Morocco makes the case for the eSIM: every card sold there is registered to a person and the shop copies your passport, while yours is running as you step off the plane in Marrakech with your number still live.
| Feature |  Simbye eSIM |
Local SIM card |
|---|---|---|
| ID document | No registration, you buy the Morocco eSIM online | Every SIM sold inside Morocco must be registered to a person, the shop copies your passport |
| When you get online | As you step off the plane in Marrakech or Casablanca | Only after a shop visit, and not at all at night or on public holidays |
| Your number | Stays active, WhatsApp and your bank's codes keep working | On a single-SIM phone your number is gone for the trip |
| Data | 1 to 20 GB or unlimited, valid 7 to 30 days | You top up with recharge cards from a kiosk or shop |
| Paying | Up front with your card in your own currency | Cash in dirham, which you can only get once you are in the country |
| Calls and SMS | No phone number, you call through WhatsApp and similar apps | Moroccan number with calls and texts included |
| Price | Fixed before you fly, nothing gets added later | Often cheaper per gigabyte, but costs you the trip, the queue and top-up vouchers |
| If something goes wrong | Support by email, a replacement arrives as a link | Back to the shop, with your passport and usually no receipt |
For most travelers the eSIM is the simpler choice: set up before departure, no queuing on arrival.

Frequently Asked Questions about Morocco eSIM
Data, calls, real phone numbers, top-ups and setup — everything you need to know before you buy a Simbye eSIM.
To buy a Morocco eSIM you need a phone with eSIM support, an email address and Wi-Fi once. You buy it prepaid online, get the QR code by email and scan it at home before you fly — no contract, no registration, no counter at Marrakech Menara airport.
The eSIM that's best for Morocco is the one whose data amount and validity match your trip. A long weekend in Marrakech runs on a small package; for a two-week round trip with maps, photos and video calls take more GB or an unlimited plan. You can pick from 1 to 20 GB and from 7 to 30 days.
No, no passport registration is needed for the eSIM in Morocco. In Morocco every SIM bought locally must be registered to a person and your passport gets copied. This eSIM is bought online beforehand: no counter, no copy, no queue after landing.
With an eSIM in Morocco, you're on Maroc Telecom or Inwi. The phone registers by itself, you do not choose anything. 4G covers the cities and the motorways; this eSIM runs on 4G/LTE, we do not promise 5G.
The eSIM signal in the medina is good. Marrakech has 4G throughout. In the narrow covered alleys around Djemaa el-Fna the signal can drop briefly behind thick walls; a few steps further on it is back.
No, you don't get a Moroccan phone number. This is a data-only plan: no calls over the network, no SMS, no number of its own. Your existing number stays in the phone and stays reachable if you leave your normal SIM switched on.
Not everywhere in the Atlas Mountains and the desert, that is true of any SIM in Morocco. An eSIM for Morocco is a digital SIM card built into your phone. In the High Atlas, in the Dades and Todra gorges and at the camps near Merzouga or M'Hamid there are long stretches without a signal. Download your map and your route offline first.
Yes, eSIM does work in Morocco. Your phone connects through local partner networks just like a Moroccan SIM card would, covering Marrakech, Casablanca, Fes, Tangier and the main roads between them. Any unlocked phone with eSIM support can use it, the profile goes onto your device before you travel.
An eSIM for Morocco starts at 2,95€, the final price depends on how much data you take and how long you stay — see the table above for every Morocco plan with its current amount. A few days in Marrakech need much less than three weeks of touring, so the short bundles cost the least. You pay once online, prepaid.
How much data you need for Morocco varies — for a week across Marrakech, Fes and Chefchaouen, plan on 3 to 5 GB. Maps, messengers and ride-hailing run roughly 50 to 100 MB a day, and riad Wi-Fi covers most evenings. Photo and story uploads from the medinas add 150 to 300 MB a day. Desert tours, video calls home or a shared hotspot are where the larger packs earn their place.
