Tourist eSIM eSIM Data Plans for Asia

Tourist eSIM does not provide a truly unlimited high‑speed data eSIM for Asia. The plans marketed as “Unlimited Data” actually grant a fixed amount of high‑speed data—such as 3 GB per day or 2 GB for the entire duration—after which the speed is reduced to a lower tier. If a traveller requires large amounts of data, Tourist eSIM offers fixed‑data options like 100 GB for 180‑days covering 18+ Asia countries or 100 GB for 180‑days covering 21+ Asia countries, as well as a 100 GB for 31‑days plan. Selecting a fixed‑data plan may be more cost‑effective unless the user is a very heavy data consumer.

Tourist eSIM’s Asia eSIM offerings are data‑only; none of the available plans include a phone number or SMS capability. Travelers accessing destinations in Asia with Tourist eSIM will have high‑speed internet but no inbound or outbound voice or text through a local number.

Because the plans lack a phone number, users can rely on internet‑based messaging and calling through popular VoIP services such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage. However, some locations may restrict or block specific VoIP applications, so it is advisable to verify whether the apps required for communication are accessible in the intended destination before purchasing a Tourist eSIM data plan.

The Tourist eSIM provider offers several Asia‑focused plans. The Southeast Asia (10+ countries) plan covers Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam. The Asia (18+ countries) plan includes Bangladesh, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, India, Japan, Cambodia, South Korea, Laos, Sri Lanka, Macau, Malaysia, Philippines, Pakistan, Singapore, Thailand, Taiwan, and Vietnam. The Asia (21+ countries) plan adds Armenia, Georgia, Kyrgyz Republic (Kyrgyzstan), Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and maintains the same core countries. Global plans further extend coverage to other Asian states such as Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Israel, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates. Combined, all Asian countries covered under any Tourist eSIM plan are: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Bahrain, China, Georgia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Israel, India, Iraq, Jordan, Japan, Kyrgyz Republic (Kyrgyzstan), Cambodia, South Korea, Kuwait, Kazakhstan, Sri Lanka, Macau, Malaysia, Oman, Philippines, Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Thailand, Tajikistan, Turkey, Taiwan, Uzbekistan, Vietnam, United Arab Emirates, Afghanistan, Brunei, Mongolia, Laos, Myanmar, Nepal, and Palestine.
