Summary
Tunisia play their three Group F matches mostly in Mexico — vs. Sweden (June 14) and vs. Japan (June 20–21) in Monterrey, then vs. the Netherlands in Kansas City (June 25). The key planning point: Tunisia is not in the US Visa Waiver Program, so fans need a US visitor visa — and that same visa unlocks visa-free entry to Mexico. Here's the plan.
Tunisia's Group F fixtures
Tunisia reach a seventh World Cup (qualifying via CAF Group H in September 2025) and are still chasing a first-ever trip beyond the group stage. Two of their three matches are in Monterrey, with a single US fixture in Kansas City, per the FIFA fixtures.
| Date (ET) | Match | Venue |
|---|---|---|
| Sun Jun 14, 10 p.m. | Sweden vs. Tunisia | Estadio BBVA (Monterrey) |
| Sun Jun 21, 12 a.m. | Tunisia vs. Japan | Estadio BBVA (Monterrey) |
| Thu Jun 25, 7 p.m. | Tunisia vs. Netherlands | Arrowhead Stadium (Kansas City) |

Entry: a US visa is the key document
Tunisia is not part of the US Visa Waiver Program, so Tunisian passport holders need a B-1/B-2 visitor visa to attend the Kansas City match — apply at a US embassy or consulate as early as possible, since interview appointment waits can run long. The upside: Mexico allows travellers holding a valid US visa to enter visa-free for tourism, so the same US visa also covers your two Monterrey matches (you'll complete an FMM permit on arrival in Mexico). Carry your passport, US visa, and tickets in the FIFA World Cup 26™ app.
Staying connected: eSIM vs roaming vs pocket Wi-Fi
Tunisia's group runs across Mexico and the US, so a North America eSIM that covers both countries on one plan is the simplest fix: install it on Wi-Fi before you fly, switch it on when you land, and your maps, rideshare, WhatsApp chats, and ticket QR codes all work immediately — without expensive roaming from a Tunisian carrier.
| Option | Cost | Setup time | Coverage |
|---|---|---|---|
| eSIM | Low | ~5 min (pre-install on Wi-Fi) | Excellent (local carrier) |
| Carrier roaming | High | Instant (already enabled) | Medium (partner-dependent) |
| Pocket Wi-Fi | Medium | Airport pickup / rental | Good (extra device to charge) |
A single North America eSIM covers Monterrey and Kansas City on one plan and extends into Canada if your trip grows. From US$5 with Apple Pay, Google Pay, or card.
