Do I need a passport to activate this Thailand eSIM?

No, the eSIM is pre-activated for international tourists, meaning you do not need to upload any passport scans or submit KYC documents.

Which network carrier is supported in Thailand?

The eSIM routes data via AIS (Advanced Info Service) as the primary network, and TrueMove H as the backup network, ensuring stable 5G speed.

Can I share data via Hotspot?

Yes, high-speed hotspot and mobile data sharing are fully supported on all plans at no additional charge.

Does this eSIM come with a local phone number?

No, this is a data-only eSIM solution. It does not support cellular calls or SMS texting. Keep your home SIM active for incoming SMS verification codes.

You also get a full refund if your eSIM is not delivered. If a technical error on our side stops the eSIM from activating, or the local network is down or the signal is too poor to use it, and our support team cannot fix it, we will refund it in full (for a technical error on our side, we may replace the eSIM instead). We do not give refunds for a change of mind, or once the eSIM has been installed or activated (except for a technical error or a local network problem). Full details: Cancellation & Refund Policy.
