How to choose an Asia eSIM
Start with the route
Asia eSIMs differ exactly in their country lists: the widest covers 20 countries, the most compact 7. Tick every country on the trip in the table, stopovers included, and pick the column that has them all.
One country? Compare a country eSIM
For a single country, that country’s own eSIM usually gives more data for the money: Thailand, Japan, Indonesia, Vietnam and South Korea. Unlimited plans with no data cap and no fair-usage limit are sold for 26 Asian countries.
How much data
Maps, messaging, ride-hailing and social media use about 0.5–1 GB a day; video calls and streaming use much more. Asia plans run from 1 to 50 GB.
Tip: install the eSIM over Wi-Fi before you leave and turn on data roaming for it when you land. Validity starts at the first connection in a covered country, so installing early costs you nothing.
