Thailand eSIM for travellers
Data in Thailand, from the moment you land
Bangkok, Phuket, Chiang Mai or the islands: get data as soon as you land at Suvarnabhumi or Don Mueang, and book your Grab or Bolt from the arrivals hall.
Choose your plan
Unlimited: 2 GB a day at full speed, then up to 512 kbps for the rest of the day.
Prices will be shown at launch. Leave your email at checkout and we'll tell you the day we open.
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 Thailand
- For four or five days of maps and messages, 3 GB is enough. If you post videos or stream on the beach, take 10 GB.
- Ride apps like Grab and Bolt show the fare before you get in, which is easier than negotiating a taxi price on arrival.
- Signal is generally good on the popular islands, but it can drop out at sea or in remote coves.
Thailand eSIM questions
Can I share data with a friend's phone?
Yes, switch on Personal Hotspot as usual. Everything connected shares the same allowance.
Is 1 GB enough for a weekend?
For maps, ride apps and messages over two or three days, usually yes. Photos and videos sent over messaging apps use much more.
When does the plan start?
When the eSIM first connects to a network in Thailand. 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 for common models.
Can I top up?
Yes. From your account, add data to the same eSIM without reinstalling it.
