Coverage and networks

Your eSIM connects to a partner network in each country on the list. The networks and the final list for each plan are confirmed at checkout.

Asia trips often chain several countries on short regional flights – Japan and South Korea, or Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia. One regional eSIM saves installing a new plan at every airport.

Mainland China and Singapore are not on this list. For them, add a China plan or a Singapore plan, or choose the global plan.

Countries and territories: Bangladesh, Cambodia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Laos, Macao, Malaysia, Philippines, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam
Partner networks: Local 4G and 5G networks in each country on the list
Technology: 5G, 4G LTE
Access point (APN): Set automatically
Calls and SMS: Not included. Use internet calling apps.
Fair use: None: full speed until the plan’s data or days run out

Check your phone first

Your phone must support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked. If it was bought from a mobile network on contract, ask them to unlock it before you travel.

Dial *#06#. If you see an EID number, your phone supports eSIM.
Most iPhones from XR and XS onwards, Google Pixel 3 onwards and Samsung Galaxy S20 onwards support eSIM.

Asia eSIM questions

Does the Asia plan include China?

No. It covers Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan but not mainland China. For the mainland, add a China plan.

Can I use it in Japan and South Korea on one trip?

Yes. Both are on the list, and the eSIM connects to a partner network when you land in the next country.

Is a regional plan cheaper than separate country plans?

Only when you visit several countries. For a single country, its own plan usually costs less.

Can I buy the plan now and travel next month?

Yes. The plan starts when the eSIM first connects in a covered country. Install it within 180 days of buying.
