Pros: 200+ countries, top-up available, largest community. Cons: Priced above newer competitors on some routes, support response times can vary.
HelloRoam does not sell an eSIM for Comoros. Comoros Telecom, trading as Huri, is the state-owned carrier with the broadest reach across all 3 islands, and Comoros Telecom (Huri) and Telma Comoros runs a competing network on Grand Comore and Anjouan. Both carriers operate 4G in Moroni and Mutsamudu, with 3G in the smaller settlements.
Coverage on Mohéli is limited to main towns such as Fomboni. Any e SIM that works here routes onto one of those 2 networks, so confirm which one a provider uses before you buy.
Coverage analysis
Comoros Telecom 4G covers Moroni's city center, the Volovolo port area, and Prince Said Ibrahim Airport. Mutsamudu on Anjouan has solid 3G-4G in the medina and port. Fomboni on Mohéli has 3G in the main settlement.
Mount Karthala's slopes above 1,500 meters lose signal, and the eastern coastal areas of Grand Comore away from Moroni have intermittent 3G. Divers in the Mohéli Marine Park should download dive maps before departing Fomboni.
Activation
Install your Comoros eSIM QR code before your flight. The plan activates on arrival at Prince Said Ibrahim International Airport (HAH) in Moroni, Grand Comore. No local shop visit or ID registration required. iPhone XS or newer, Pixel 3a or newer, and Galaxy S20 or newer support eSIM.
Your device must be carrier-unlocked before departure.
Data usage tips
Budget 200-300 MB per day for WhatsApp with local tour guides, Google Maps navigation around Moroni, and diving lodge bookings. Uploading photos from Mount Karthala's crater hike uses 60-80 MB per 20 images. Download offline maps for all three islands before arriving, especially for inter-island ferry routes on Anjouan and Mohéli.
Video calls use 200-250 MB per 30 minutes on 4G in Moroni.
eSIM plan pricing in Comoros

For island-hoppers visiting all 3 main islands, confirm that the plan you are considering covers Anjouan and Moheli and not just Grand Comore.

Questions about Comoros eSIMs
Which carriers cover the Comoros islands?
+
HelloRoam does not sell an eSIM for Comoros. Comoros Telecom (Huri) and Telma Comoros both operate across the islands, with 4G in Moroni and 3G in Mutsamudu and Fomboni. Coverage is strongest in the 3 main towns and thin on hiking trails and remote coastal stretches. Download offline maps for Mount Karthala and Moheli Marine Park before leaving Moroni, because both lose signal quickly.
Which network does an eSIM in Comoros connect to?
+
HelloRoam does not sell an eSIM for Comoros. A Comoros eSIM routes onto Comoros Telecom (Huri) or Telma Comoros. Both carriers provide 4G in Moroni on Grand Comore and 3G on Anjouan and Mohéli. Reaching 2 networks rather than 1 improves reliability across all three islands, so check which carrier a provider uses before buying, because no verified Comoros plan appears in this comparison.
How do I get mobile data in Comoros?
+
HelloRoam does not sell an eSIM for Comoros. Either an international eSIM routed onto one of the 2 local carriers, or a local SIM bought at a carrier shop in Moroni with registration. No verified Comoros plan appears in this comparison, so check the provider's own listing. A week of island hopping across Grand Comore, Anjouan and Moheli needs maps, messaging and lodge bookings, roughly 2-3 GB.
Does mobile coverage reach all three Comoros islands?
+
HelloRoam does not sell an eSIM for Comoros. Yes, in the main towns. Comoros Telecom covers Grand Comore, Anjouan and Mohéli where people live. Moroni and Mutsamudu hold 4G, and Fomboni on Mohéli holds 3G. Remote ground between towns and the high-altitude zones on Mount Karthala carry limited signal or none, and the 3 inter-island ferry crossings sit outside coverage.
Can I use an eSIM while diving in Comoros?
+
HelloRoam does not sell an eSIM for Comoros. Your line works on land at dive bases, lodges and port areas, and never underwater, so download dive site maps beforehand. The Mohéli Marine Park's shoreside facilities on Fomboni hold 3G. Dive operators in Moroni hold 4G. Use the connection to reach operators and to share photos from land after the 2 or 3 dives of the day.
How do I activate an eSIM for Comoros?
+
HelloRoam does not sell an eSIM for Comoros. Install the eSIM QR code before your flight and leave the line switched on. The profile registers on landing at Prince Said Ibrahim International Airport in Moroni, with no ID registration and no carrier shop visit. The plan counts from your first day of data use, not from installation, on either of the 2 local networks.
Is Mount Karthala inside mobile coverage?
+
HelloRoam does not sell an eSIM for Comoros. Signal reaches the base of Mount Karthala in the villages near Moroni. Above 1,500 metres on the slopes it becomes intermittent, and it disappears near the summit crater at 2,361 metres. Download topographic maps and emergency contacts before the hike. Karthala is Africa's largest active volcano and erupts periodically, which makes offline emergency contacts essential.
