Do I need to register my passport or fingerprints to activate my CheapESIM?

Updated April 22, 2026

No, absolutely not! This is a significant advantage of choosing CheapESIM for your travel data. Unlike purchasing a local physical SIM card in countries like Uganda, which often mandates a lengthy and complicated biometric (fingerprint) and passport registration process at locations like Entebbe (EBB) Airport, our eSIMs require no such personal identification. You can activate your CheapESIM plan quickly and digitally, saving you time and avoiding the hassle of bureaucratic procedures, ensuring you get connected with maximum convenience and privacy.
