Nomad eSIM Data Plans for Asia

Nomad does not currently provide unlimited data eSIM plans for Asia. The plans it offers in the region have fixed data allowances, such as a 50 GB plan valid for 45 days priced at $72 USD that covers China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Macau, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Taiwan, Vietnam and two additional countries. Another option is a 30 GB plan valid for 365 days priced at $65 USD that covers 42 Asian countries. Choosing a fixed‑data plan can be more cost‑effective unless a traveler is an extremely heavy data user.

Nomad does not provide Asia eSIMs that include a phone number or SMS capability. The onlySIM plans available for Asia from this provider are data‑only, so travelers cannot make or receive traditional voice calls or text messages through the eSIM itself.

Because the plans rely solely on data, users can still communicate by using VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram and iMessage, which work over the data connection and allow for and messaging without a local phone number.

Nomad provides eSIM coverage in Asia through several of its plans, including Regional APAC, Regional Global‑EX, Regional Global, and Global. The Asian countries covered by these plans are China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Macau, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Taiwan, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Brunei, India, Cambodia, Laos, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Pakistan, Kazakhstan, United Arab Emirates, Israel, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Uzbekistan, Armenia, and Mongolia.
