Afghanistan has three carriers: Roshan (largest coverage, market leader), Etisalat Afghanistan, and MTN Afghanistan. The 4G network covers Kabul, Herat, Mazar-e-Sharif, Kandahar, and Jalalabad. The eSIM Ahora connects via international roaming. Plugs are Type C, D, and F mixed, 220V — use a universal adapter. Important: tourist travel to Afghanistan is advised against by most governments. This eSIM is mainly useful for journalists, aid workers, contractors, and diplomats on mission.
Kabul International Airport (KBL) has restored limited commercial flights (FlyDubai, Iran Aseman, Mahan Air, Kam Air). The currency is the afghani (AFN); ATMs work in limited capacity — carry USD cash. Under the Taliban regime (since August 2021), cultural norms are strict: women must cover fully, alcohol is forbidden, mixed-gender spaces restricted. WhatsApp and Signal work but may be monitored. Check with your embassy before traveling — many countries officially advise against entry. The international banking system is partially sanctioned.
