What is an eSIM?
eSIM stands for “embedded” SIM which is installed in your phone by scanning a QR code or tapping a notification. If an activation date is required the QR code / Notification is sent after activation, else 24hours after completing your documentation.
eSIM Advantages
- Easy to use: Set up your plan by scanning a simple QR code or tapping a notification.
- Save on Shipping cost: No physical delivery requirement
- Save on time: In a rush to travel? We will send eSIM QR Code via email. Scan it as per instructions and It will be ready to use upon arrival.
- Keep your original SIM: The eSIM is in addition to your original SIM which will work as usual if you need it.
eSIM Disadvantages
- Unfamiliar: Since it is a new technology expect to be learning a bit.
- eSIM Compatible Phones: eSIM will only work in eSIM compatible phones. As a general rule, iPhone 11 and Android model 2021 and higher models are compatible with eSIM.
- Single Use Only: Most eSIM codes can be used only once. Please do not delete the eSIM created on your phone, since it cannot be recreated on your phone or any other phone. However you can de-activate the eSIM when not needed from your settings.
- Transfer of eSIM: To transfer an eSIM from one phone to another you must visit the store of the Operator concerned. However some USA eSIMs can be transferred from one iPhone to another.
Activating eSIM on your Device using a QR Code
Most eSIMs are installed using a QR code. The QR code is sent to you by eMail. You need an Internet connection to install an eSIM
iPhone XR, XS and newer
- Go to Settings, then Cellular.
- Select Add a plan, and the Camera app will open.
- Point your camera at the QR activation code until you see a message that says Installing cellular plan.
2021 Android and newer
- Go to Settings > Connections > SIM card manager
- Tap Add mobile plan
- Tap Add using QR code

Activating eSIM on your Device using an Operator Notification
T-mobile, AT&T and some other operators make it even simpler to install eSIMs. They send a notification directly to your phone. Just tap on the notification and follow the instructions as in images below. The notification is sent to the phone you intend to use on your trip for which you have given us the EID and IMEI number by dialing *#06#.

Bought it for my Thailand trip, Very convenient, don’t need to buy the sim once you reach your destination just need to swap the existing sim and you are ready to go…
The free usage of social media apps was a huge benefit. I barely ended up using my mobile data quota.

Partho Pal (verified owner) –
Used the Thailand sims for myself and friends on two trips. Worked quite well in Bangkok. SIM delivery was prompt and service was great! Would rate the service best among all providers.
Note that I had a much better experience with Truemove than with DTAC. The DTAC sim had an okay network. Truemove was faster.

raji (verified owner) –
Bought DTAC sim from TSIM website . DTAC sim has erratic network in Phuket. In many places in Phuket 4G speed slow . In some places it was satisfactory. Last day we were in Bangkok … here also DTAC performance was patchy. Wanted to go online while dining at Asiatique the Riverfront, DTAC sim could not connect. My suggestion is to buy AIS as they are with 5G.
Services Tsim (verified owner) –
We recommend using the in country SIM card in the main / 1st slot as that slot gets first use of resources and is able to connect better. We are sorry you did not get good connectivity with your DTAC SIM. Thank you for your balanced review.

Good option to have a card before you land in Thailand. I had received good 4G coverage and had no difficulty in accessing internet all through my stay. The price is also right.

The sim was activated without any hassle. I received it within 2 days of ordering. They sent a free mobile phone cover which turned out to be better than the one I had bought from Decathlon.
The free usage of social media apps was a huge benefit. I barely ended up using my mobile data quota.

Go for it without a second thought. I ordered the sim just a day before my journey and wow I received it in 10 hours. I inserted the sim on landing and that’s it..I am all connected!!!! It was a very hassle free process from tsim and would highly recommend for every traveller.

Very Convenient and reasonably priced. Connectivity was very good all along. Highly recommended
Shailesh (verified owner) –
Worked like a charm on landing in Phuket. Just inserted sim before landing and removed airplane mode after captain announced. Immediately all messages and watsapp texts started flowing in. Really worth the small extra cost they charge.
In my second hotel in Phuket, my phone would not connect to wifi due to certificate issues. All the 4 days I used 4G and it lasted easily since social media sites are not counted in traffic.
100% recommended for Thailand visitors.
Services Tsim (verified owner) –
Thank you for your kind review and recommendation. All things considered our SIM cards should be cheaper than those available at the airports of Thailand.
