Do I need to register my passport or ID to activate SouthESIM in Guinea-Bissau?

Updated April 22, 2026

One of the biggest advantages of SouthESIM is that you do NOT need to register your passport or ID! If you were to buy a physical local SIM card in Bissau, you'd typically face a visit to an Orange or MTN shop, potential language barriers (Portuguese or Creole), and a mandatory, often time-consuming, passport registration process. Our eSIM is a roaming service, which means you can skip all that bureaucracy. Just activate it and you're good to go, saving you time and hassle to enjoy your trip!
