Check coverage, remaining data and validity. Follow the supplied roaming and APN instructions. Keep the eSIM installed when contacting support.
For a necessary journey, tourists, people visiting family and those on a short holiday or vacation should keep a contact method that works without mobile internet. PikoeSIM offers prepaid data plans that use a virtual sim card as a digital eSIM card you install on a compatible, network-unlocked phone; the plans provide data in Libya and nothing else.

Read the latest official travel advice before booking. The FCDO advises against all travel to some parts of Libya and against all but essential travel to Tripoli, Benghazi, Al-Bayda, Derna and Misrata. For a necessary Tripoli visit, arrange local support and a second way to reach your host.
Mitiga is Tripoli's currently functioning civilian airport, and FCDO warns that flights can be cancelled at short notice. Confirm the airport and flight with your airline before your driver departs, save booking details offline, and don't publish your movements on social media.
Save before you goAirport confirmation, driver's contact number, and a backup method that works without mobile data.
For a necessary Benghazi visit, ask your host or organisation to confirm arrival arrangements and the exact destination in writing. Download meeting and work files beforehand so a failed attachment doesn't stall the handoff.
Road access and basic services change with little warning. Have your local contact reconfirm the agreed route before you leave, carry a charged power bank, send small files only, and postpone large uploads; more data won't fix a power cut or network outage.
Save before you goDestination address, named contact and your organisation's agreed contingency instructions.
