- Install the eSIM at home on Wi-Fi before you fly.
Questions travellers ask
Can I use the eSIM in several Vietnamese cities?
Yes. A Vietnam plan works across the country wherever the partner networks have coverage. Coverage can be weaker in remote mountain and island areas.
When should I install it?
Install it a day or two before you fly, while you are on Wi-Fi at home. Then turn the eSIM line on when you land.
Does my phone support eSIM?
Most recent iPhones (XS and newer), Samsung Galaxy S and Z models and Google Pixel phones support eSIM. Your phone must also be unlocked. You can check under Settings: if you see “Add eSIM” or “Add mobile plan”, it is supported.
Can I keep my WhatsApp and my normal number?
Yes. The eSIM only gives you data. Your normal SIM and number stay in the phone, and WhatsApp keeps working with your usual number.
