Roaming in Tunisia on an Austrian plan: what A1 and Drei charge
Tunisia is outside EU roam-like-at-home, so the EU data in an Austrian plan does not apply there. Published prices, checked on 22 Oct 2026 (euros incl. VAT):
| Network | Option | Data | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| A1 | Roaming Pass (Zone 2) | per started GB | €5.90 |
| Drei | Roaming-Paket Go | 1 GB, 15 days | €5.00 |
| Drei | Roaming-Paket Go Select | 5 GB, 15 days | €10.00 |
For the 10 GB planning size (14 days), A1’s Roaming Pass would bill 10 × €5.90 = €59.00; on Drei, 2 packages (Go Select + Go Select) cover it for €20.00. A1 says the Roaming Pass is switched on automatically for every tariff signed since 24 June 2026, and it blocks roaming data at a default limit of €60, which you can raise yourself.
Magenta prices depend on the tariff — look them up in Magenta’s roaming finder. Older tariffs without these options can cost more. Sources: A1, Drei, Magenta.
Paying in Tunisia: Tunisian dinar (TND)
In Tunisia you pay in TND, not euros. For a euro account, card payments and ATM withdrawals in TND are foreign-currency transactions: many banks add a foreign-transaction fee or a marked-up exchange rate. Check your bank's fee list before you go. If a card terminal or ATM offers to charge you in euros instead of TND, choosing TND is usually cheaper, because otherwise the merchant's or ATM operator's rate applies.

Before you fly to Tunisia
- Buy and install the eSIM at home on Wi‑Fi. Saily says plans activate automatically when you arrive and can be activated up to 180 days after purchase.
- Turn on data roaming for the Saily line (Saily’s setup steps require it) and switch data off on your home SIM, so apps do not use expensive roaming by accident.
- Keep the home SIM active for bank and login text messages — travel eSIMs like Saily’s are data plans.
Assumptions and sources
Light 0.20 / normal 0.50 / heavy 0.95 GB per day, plus optional extras, plus about 20% buffer. No live retail prices.
Data use follows your phone habits, not the season. Count only the days you will rely on mobile data rather than hotel Wi‑Fi.

Common questions
Is 10 GB enough for 14 days in Tunisia?
Beach days in Djerba or Hammamet and day trips inland fit normal use. Saily lists Tunisia plans from 1 GB for 7 days up to 20 GB for 30 days, plus unlimited options. The 6–9 GB estimate plus buffer lands on 10 GB. Hotel Wi‑Fi is not counted. Streaming video on mobile is the usual reason to go larger.
Should I roam in Tunisia instead?
Tunisia is outside EU roaming. As of 22 Oct 2026, A1’s Roaming Pass bills €5.90 per started GB there (zone 2) and Drei sells 1 GB for €5 or 5 GB for €10, valid 15 days. Compare that with an eSIM quote for the same GB.
How much data do I need for 7, 14 or 30 days in Tunisia?
With normal use (maps, messaging, social, no daily video) TripUtils estimates: 7 days: 3–5 GB, plan for 5 GB (smallest Saily fit: 5 GB / 30 days, US$11.99); 14 days: 6–9 GB, plan for 10 GB (smallest Saily fit: 10 GB / 30 days, US$19.99); 30 days: 12–18 GB, plan for 20 GB (smallest Saily fit: 20 GB / 30 days, US$31.99).

Is there one eSIM for Tunisia and other countries in the region?
