Does it work in Male and on local islands like Maafushi?
Yes. Male, Hulhumale and the local guesthouse islands all have good 4G.
Will I have signal on the speedboat or seaplane?
On speedboats, mostly, as they stay near the atolls. On seaplanes, no.
Does it work on my stopover in Colombo, Dubai or Singapore?
When does my Maldives plan start?
When the eSIM first connects to a network in the Maldives. Install it on Wi-Fi a day or two before you fly: the days don't start counting until you land.
Can I use the Maldives eSIM as a hotspot?
Yes. Every Maldives plan can share its data with a laptop, a tablet or a travel partner's phone. Anything you share comes off the same plan.
Does the Maldives eSIM include calls and texts?
No, it's data only, with no local number. Call and text over WhatsApp, iMessage or FaceTime. Your Australian number stays on your phone, so texts like bank codes still arrive.
