Do I need to show my passport or provide fingerprints to activate my SouthESIM in Bangladesh?

Updated April 22, 2026

One of the biggest advantages of choosing SouthESIM for your trip to Bangladesh is avoiding the usual hassle of local SIM registration. Unlike purchasing a physical SIM card at Dhaka (DAC) airport or a local shop, which typically involves a mandatory, time-consuming biometric (fingerprint) scan and passport verification due to strict local regulations, SouthESIM requires none of that. You can activate your eSIM quickly and digitally, saving you time and effort so you can start exploring Dhaka or Chittagong without delay.
