NTRA Introduces eSIM Technology in Egypt on 5th December, 2024

Great news for Egypt's telecom industry! The National Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (NTRA) has rolled out eSIM technology after rigorous testing by the country's four major mobile operators. This is a big step forward in enhancing the telecom experience and keeping up with global tech trends. It’s all in line with Law No. 10 of 2003, which emphasizes adopting modern technology to support digital transformation and boost the telecom market.


What is eSIM Technology?


The eSIM (embedded SIM) is a cutting-edge innovation that replaces traditional physical SIM cards. Unlike regular SIM cards, the eSIM is built directly into devices. This makes it more secure since it cannot be easily removed, reducing risks like theft or misuse. It also offers users the ability to switch between mobile operators without needing a new SIM card.


Key Benefits of eSIM


  1. Flexibility: Users can activate a new number directly on the eSIM or transfer their existing number without replacing a physical SIM card.

  2. Enhanced Security: The eSIM is embedded inside devices, making it harder to steal or misuse.

  3. Improved User Experience: The eSIM simplifies switching between mobile networks and ensures uninterrupted service.
