Is the OTT social media tax applicable to my WestESIM usage in Uganda?

Updated April 22, 2026

No, when using your WestESIM in Uganda, you are not subject to the Over-The-Top (OTT) social media tax that local SIM card users might encounter for accessing platforms like WhatsApp or Facebook. WestESIM provides a streamlined, hassle-free experience where your data plan covers all internet usage, allowing you to enjoy seamless social media connectivity without any additional steps or unexpected charges.
