How much does a SIM card cost in Egypt for a tourist in 2026?

The cost of a tourist SIM card in Egypt starts from 5 dollars and goes up to 10 dollars for a package with a large amount of traffic. For example, a 46 GB package from Etisalat or 20 GB from Vodafone will cost 10 dollars. This price usually already includes gigabytes of internet and minutes for calls. This amount, as a rule, is enough for 7-14 days of active use. If the internet runs out, the card can be topped up at a communication store or through the app.
