## Good to know

### Install before you fly

Install it at home on Wi-Fi. It stays off until you switch it on for data at your destination.

### Keep your own SIM

Your usual SIM stays in for calls and texts. Set the Veela eSIM as your line for mobile data.

### Help when you're there

The assistant answers in your language at any hour, and a person picks up anything it can't fix.

## Tips for Taiwan

- Taipei's MRT, buses and many shops work with an EasyCard, but route planning and translation need data.
- For a week of city trips, 5 to 10 GB is comfortable. Taroko Gorge and mountain roads have weaker coverage.
- Night market vendors increasingly take mobile payments; keep a bit of cash too.

## Taiwan eSIM questions

**Does it work on the outlying islands?**

Coverage on Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu depends on the partner network. Main island coverage is complete.
**Can I add Japan or Korea on the same trip?**

Yes, with the Asia regional plan, which covers Taiwan, Japan and South Korea on one eSIM.
**When does the plan start?**

When the eSIM first connects to a network in Taiwan. Installing it at home doesn't start the clock.
**Is my phone compatible?**

Dial *#06#. If you see an EID number and your phone is unlocked, it works. See the [compatibility checker](https://veela.io/compatibility/) for common models.
**Can I top up?**

Yes. From your account, add data to the same eSIM without reinstalling it.
