- When does the 1 year validity start?
- The countdown starts when the eSIM first connects to a network in Saudi Arabia, not when you buy it. You can install the profile days ahead at home and it will stay dormant until you land.
- Does eSIM work in Mecca and Medina?

- How fast is mobile internet in Saudi Arabia?
