Mobile data in Sri Lanka
Airport SIMs in Colombo need a passport. A travel eSIM installs at home and runs on Mobitel from landing — for PickMe, Uber and maps on the way to the coast.

How to install
- Scan the QR code at home on Wi-Fi: iPhone — Settings → Cellular → Add eSIM; Android — Settings → Connections → SIM manager.

Tips before you go
- Unlimited is expensive in Sri Lanka; for two weeks, 5–10 GB is usually enough.
- Signal drops in the hill country (Ella, Nuwara Eliya) and on trains; download offline maps.
- Install at home and switch it on after landing.
