Networks appearing in the country catalog

Only one partner network (Alfa) is listed. Check that operator's map for your exact SKU and route for remote areas on your route, download offline maps, and keep a Wi-Fi fallback for critical moments such as arrival and check-in.
Lebanon ranks #10 of 11 MENA destinations by number of listed partner networks.
5G in Lebanon
8 of 11 MENA destinations list 5G. The dataset does not list 5G for this country; verify the selected SKU and local operator before making speed assumptions. That is enough for maps, messaging, video calls and streaming in normal conditions; just don't pay extra for a 5G phone feature you won't use here.

Source and method
Figures come from the TripoSIM travel eSIM dataset (CC BY 4.0), generated from TripoSIM's live catalog on 2 November 2026: country-level observed price fields in USD, which do not verify a purchasable plan for a specific trip. Rankings compare the median price per GB across observed catalog entries in each country. This site is owned by the same company as TripoSIM, so this is first-party data, not an independent market survey. Prices, plan duration and individual terms can change; the checkout page is authoritative. A country-level network list can combine different SKUs, not networks guaranteed in any one purchased profile.
