No! This is the single biggest advantage of our eSIM. Due to Gabonese law, buying a physical local SIM card at Libreville (LBV) Airport requires a mandatory, slow, and complicated passport and ID registration process. eSIMTrends eSIMs are roaming-based, which means you are exempt from all this bureaucracy. You can buy online, install instantly, and skip the registration queues.
