Online from city to countryside
Whether you're exploring the temples of Luang Prabang, passing through the capital Vientiane or heading out to Vang Vieng, a travel eSIM keeps you connected across Laos. It's there for maps, translation, booking transport and staying in touch as you move around the country.
Install before you fly
Set the eSIM up at home on Wi-Fi so it's ready the moment you arrive. There's nothing physical to collect and no counter to queue at in an unfamiliar airport — scan the QR code we email you and your data is ready to use.
Keep your number and apps
The eSIM works alongside your normal SIM, so your home number stays live for calls and texts while WhatsApp and other apps run on the travel data. Nothing about how people reach you changes — you simply add data for the trip.
FAQ
How much data do I need for Laos?
It depends how you travel. Checking maps and messaging needs little; streaming or working remotely needs more. Pick a plan that matches your usual habits abroad, and buy another if you find you're running low.
Do I have to swap my SIM card?
No. An eSIM is digital, so there's no card to remove or replace. Your existing SIM stays in the phone and the eSIM is added alongside it for data while you're in Laos.
Can I set it up in advance?
Yes. Install the eSIM at home over Wi-Fi before you leave, then switch on the travel data once you land. Setting up early means you're connected as soon as you arrive.
