Does CheapESIM require me to provide my passport, visa, or photo for registration in India?

Updated April 22, 2026

No, this is one of CheapESIM's biggest advantages for travelers to India. Due to strict Indian regulations, purchasing a physical local SIM card at airports like Delhi (DEL) or Mumbai (BOM) involves a mandatory, often slow and complex registration process requiring your passport, visa copy, and a photo. With CheapESIM, you bypass all these bureaucratic hurdles entirely. Our eSIM is a roaming data plan, meaning no personal documentation is needed for activation, offering you instant, hassle-free connectivity and significant time savings upon arrival.
