Algerie Telecom provides best nationwide mobile coverage

Local SIM cards (Djezzy, Ooredoo, Mobilis)

Purchase a local SIM at the airport or in-city shops for reliable 4G coverage; international roaming is expensive.

eSIM options are limited in Algeria; a physical SIM card is more reliable.

Limited credit card acceptance outside major cities

Algerian Dinar (DZD) cash

Withdraw DZD from ATMs in major cities (Algiers, Oran, Constantine); credit cards have limited acceptance outside tourist zones.

ATMs are available in Algiers and other major urban centres but scarce in remote areas; carry sufficient cash for rural travel.
