Additional Information

eSIM Asia

eSIMs are becoming more and more popular in Asia, and many countries and network providers now accept them. Many phones in Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and Thailand are eSIM enabled. We offer a number of Asia eSIM packages.

Travelers can save money on mobile data plans for Asia by using eSIMs instead of roaming. Some places may still have limited eSIM service and compatibility, though, so it's important to check with your network provider before you go.

Overall, eSIMs are a simple and inexpensive way for travelers to get reliable mobile internet plans while they're on the go.

Embedded SIM, or eSIM for short, is a cutting-edge innovation in the realm of mobile communication. An eSIM is a SIM card that is integrated into a mobile device instead of a traditional, removable card. eSIM technology enables mobile network carriers to factory-program the SIM profile into the device's chip.

Electronic SIM cards provide several advantages over traditional SIM cards for tourists. Visitors to other countries no longer need to buy and insert a SIM card. They can avoid exchanging SIM cards by buying and activating a global eSIM card that works with several networks and locales. On-demand eSIM activation and deactivation simplifies plan and network switching.

Travelers save money with eSIMs. Traditional physical SIM cards have high roaming fees that can quickly add up and produce unexpected expenditures. eSIMs offer competitive data prices without roaming. Regular travelers who use their phones for work or leisure save a lot.

Mobile technology has changed with eSIMs' flexibility, simplicity, and cost reductions. International eSIMs eliminate the need to transfer SIM cards or pay high roaming fees, revolutionizing travel.

Let’s have a look at how eSIMs work in Asia.

How does an Asian eSIM work?

Using eSIMs in Asia can be a great way to stay connected while traveling. To make the most of your eSIM, there are a few practical tips to keep in mind.

Firstly, managing your data usage is essential to avoid running out of data or incurring additional charges. You can track your data usage on your device or through your eSIM provider’s website.

Secondly, if you encounter any issues with your eSIM, such as connectivity problems or activation issues, be sure to contact your provider’s customer support for assistance.

It’s also important to check if your device is compatible with eSIMs before purchasing one. Most service providers list the phones on their websites that are compatible with eSIM.

By following these practical tips and checking eSIM compatibility with devices, you can make the most of your eSIM and enjoy a smooth and hassle-free travel experience in Asia.

How to activate your Asia eSIM?

An eSIM is really easy to activate and install. The activation instructions for an eSIM are extremely thorough and will be sent to you immediately via email or on screen.

For the installation process to go smoothly, it is crucial that you have an active internet connection when installing your eSIM.

If you experience any problems during the installation process, contact the KnowRoaming dedicated support team.

You should be aware that an eSIM cannot be used on a network-locked phone, so it is important to unlock your phone before proceeding to purchase an eSIM.

After you have installed your eSIM in your home country, you can turn the eSIM off until you reach Asia. Activation of the package only occurs when you use your eSIM in Asia.
