Which networks does the Azerbaijan eSIM use?

It connects to Azercell on 4G and Bakcell on 5G in Azerbaijan.

Does the Azerbaijan eSIM include calls and texts?

No. The plans are for mobile data only, so calls and texts are not included.

Can I top up my Azerbaijan eSIM?

Yes, you can top up the eSIM if you need more data during your trip.

How long can an Azerbaijan eSIM plan last?

Available durations are 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, 15, 30 and 31 days.

Azerbaijan: is an eSIM better than a local SIM?

For most travellers, yes. A local SIM in Azerbaijan means finding a shop once you have landed, usually with ID in hand, and it leaves you on a single carrier. An eSimHero eSIM installs before you travel, works the moment you arrive, and reaches 2 networks — Azercell, Bakcell — so your phone can move to whichever one has signal. Your usual number stays active on the same phone throughout.
