Provider-by-provider breakdown
Yesim has the single cheapest entry point we track for Bangladesh — a 500MB/1-day pass at $0.50, really a "does this work" test more than a real trip plan. Real discount code active:
Superalink sells a genuinely real $1.00 unlimited day-pass — not a typo, a full day of unlimited data for close to a dollar, scaling up predictably from there if you want more than one day.
NXTL prices Bangladesh as a flat pay-as-you-go rate — around $1.15 per gigabyte, no fixed expiry — rather than a bundle you commit to upfront. Real discount code:
Yatelo (1GB/7 days for $1.74) is the best value pick for a standard week-long trip, undercutting nearly everyone else at that length.
eSIMCard (from $2.06) sells the cheapest genuinely unlimited plans we found for Bangladesh across most short durations — $6.31 for 3 days, $9.88 for 5 days, $13.21 for a full week. Real discount code:
Revo eSim (1GB/7 days for $2.33) sits just behind Yatelo on the weekly rate, a solid second option if Yatelo's specific tiers don't line up with your trip. Real discount code:
eSIMGlobe (17 plans, from currently unavailable) rounds out the cheaper end of the comparison with a reasonably deep lineup behind it. Discount code active:
MobiMatter (10 plans) is the one to check if you need real volume — its 30GB/30-day plan at $26.99 works out to under $0.87 per GB, a strong rate once you're past what a light-use trip actually needs. Real discount code:
Up to 50% cashback (up to $5) in wallet credit on your first purchase
BNESIM is the standout for a full month of moderate-to-heavy use — its 30-day tiers scale unusually well: 3GB is $3.52, 5GB is $5.03, 10GB is $7.05, and a genuinely large 20GB comes in at just $12.09. Discount code available:
Yaalo has the best full-month unlimited price we found for Bangladesh at $35.64 for 30 days, with shorter unlimited tiers at $16.54 for 10 days and $20.88 for 15. Real discount code:
Why prices vary this much
A sub-$1 test pass and a $37.99 unlimited month both show up under "Bangladesh eSIM," but they're solving different problems, and Bangladesh's pricing overall runs noticeably cheaper than many other destinations on this site — wholesale data costs here are simply lower. The cheapest tiers (Yesim, NXTL) are light-use options, fine for messaging and maps but not built for a full day of video calls. BNESIM wins specifically on real-world volume: its 30-day tiers scale gently enough that 20GB costs barely more than a bare-minimum plan elsewhere. Yaalo's unlimited pricing, meanwhile, is the cheapest full-month unlimited option by a clear margin.
If you're not sure how much data your trip actually needs, our data usage guide is worth checking before defaulting to unlimited — most travelers use less than they expect.
Which plan fits your trip
- A short Dhaka business trip: Yesim's 500MB/1-day pass, or Yatelo's 1GB/7-day plan if you're staying closer to a week.
- A week including a trip out to Cox's Bazar: Yatelo's 1GB/7-day plan at $1.74 is the standard pick.
- A longer trip covering the Sundarbans and multiple cities: BNESIM's 20GB/30-day plan at $12.09 gives real headroom for navigation and photo uploads.
- Heavy data use — constant video calls, streaming, tethering a laptop: Yaalo's $35.64 flat-rate month, or MobiMatter's 30GB plan if you'd rather stick to a fixed allowance.
A few practical notes
Coverage is strong and consistent in Dhaka, Chittagong, and the other major cities; expect it to thin out somewhat in more rural areas, including parts of the route out to Cox's Bazar and inside the Sundarbans itself.
Install your eSIM before you fly — every provider above only activates once you land and connect to a Bangladeshi network, so there's no benefit to setting it up at home. If this is your first time using an eSIM at all, our beginner's guide to how eSIMs work covers installation and activation from the very start.
If your trip continues into neighbouring India or elsewhere in South Asia, check each destination's pricing separately rather than assuming one plan carries over; our multi-country trip planner can show you real plans that genuinely cover your whole route if one exists.
Most modern phones can run an eSIM alongside your regular home SIM rather than replacing it, so you can keep your usual number reachable for calls and texts while your data runs through the cheaper local plan — worth checking your phone's dual-SIM settings before you land.
Rush-hour traffic in Dhaka can eat into your data usage more than you'd expect if you're relying heavily on live navigation apps — worth factoring in if you're picking between a light-use plan and something with a bit more headroom.
