eSIM4Travel eSIM Data Plans for China

eSIM4Travel does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM for China. The plans that carry the word “Unlimited” in their name actually grant 3GB/day of high‑speed data and, after that daily limit is reached, the speed is reduced to 1000kbps. The validity of those plans is limited to the specified number of days, ranging from 3 days to 30 days.

Travelers who need larger data allowances can choose fixed data plans from eSIM4Travel that offer unthrottled high‑speed data for the full validity period. Examples include the 50GB/30Days plan for China mobile, priced at $45.02 USD, and the 20GB/30Days plan for China mobile, priced at $16.39 USD. These fixed data plans can be more cost‑effective for users who consume a lot of data during their stay in China.

eSIM4Travel does not offer a China eSIM that includes a local phone number or SMS capability. Travelers can only purchase a data‑only plan for China from this provider. For voice and messaging, most users rely on VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage, which normally work over the data connection. However, some destinations may block or limit access to specific apps or VoIP services, so it is advisable to confirm that the applications you need are available in China before making a purchase.

eSIM4Travel lists 15 single‑country plans that cover China and 32 multi‑country plans that include China in their coverage. Across all plans the price varies from $0.77 to $83.99, while the data cap ranges from 1 GB to 50 GB. The provider offers two main types of data offerings: fixed‑data plans that provide a lump sum of data for the duration of the validity period, and daily‑cap plans that allot a set amount of data each day; both types are available among the China‑specific options.
