Currently, there are no unlimited data eSIM plans available for Libya.

In Libya, the primary Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) are:
Almadar Aljadid: Established in 1995, Almadar Aljadid is a state-owned company based in Tripoli, offering 2G, 3G, and 4G services, with ongoing tests for 5G technology.
Libyana: Founded in 2004, Libyana is another state-owned operator headquartered in Tripoli, providing 2G, 3G, 4G, and VoLTE services, and currently testing 5G technology.
Both operators are owned by the Libyan Post, Telecommunications and Information Technology Company (LPTIC) and have extensive network coverage across the country.
Libya does not have Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs); therefore, all mobile services are provided directly by these major MNOs.
Travel eSIM plans that include a phone number with inbound and outbound voice calls and SMS are available for Libya. Providers that offer such plans are Roamify and Orange Travel. Their packages are 30‑day plans, priced at about $25.00 and $35.99 respectively, each offering 50 MB of data with tethering allowed. The included phone numbers use dialing code +33, so the numbers are not local Libya numbers (Libya’s code is +218). Voicemail, voice calls, and SMS are available both inbound and outbound on these plans.
