Pakistan’s shift toward eSIMs is about to boost as Pakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) announced revamped eSIM policy, introducing cheaper activation charges, free device transfers, and stronger security measures from August 17. After recent changes, mobile users will receive several important benefits designed to make eSIM technology more accessible across Pakistan. Instead of inserting a physical SIM, users activate their mobile number digitally using a QR code or their operator’s activation process. The revised policy could accelerate the adoption of eSIM technology in Pakistan, particularly as more flagship and mid-range smartphones now come with built-in eSIM support. Travel eSIM plans for Pakistan start at less than $1 for very small daily data packages, while most entry-level plans are available for around $2.
