No. An eSIM can be installed only once, and it locks to the first device it is installed on. It cannot be moved to another phone, re-scanned, or reinstalled afterward, and it is non-refundable once installed. Please install your eSIM on the device you plan to keep using. If you are switching devices and need help, contact our support team.

Despite Lesotho being entirely surrounded by South Africa, it is an independent nation with its own distinct telecommunication infrastructure. Using your South African SIM card (e.g., Vodacom SA or MTN SA) in Lesotho will trigger international roaming charges, which can quickly become very expensive. For a cost-effective and hassle-free solution, WorldESIM offers dedicated Lesotho plans. This ensures you enjoy local rates and reliable connectivity as you explore the 'Kingdom in the Sky' without unexpected bills.
