Giga.Tel eSIM Data Plans for East Asia

Giga.Tel does not provide a truly unlimited data eSIM for East Asia. Its so‑called unlimited plans actually give 1 GB per day of high‑speed data, and after the daily limit the speed is throttled to 512 kbps. If a higher data allowance is needed, Giga.Tel offers several fixed‑amount plans that can be more economical, such as the Global 72 countries 90 GB plan valid for 365 days or the APAC 34 GB yearly plan, both covering China, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Macau, Taiwan and additional countries. Choosing a fixed plan may be more cost‑effective unless you expect to consume very high amounts of data.

Giga.Tel does not provide a phone number or SMS capability on its East Asia eSIM plans. Its offerings are strictly data‑only. Travelers can still use VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage over the data connection for voice calls and messaging.

Giga.Tel’s eSIM offerings include a range of plans that cover the East Asian region. The Asia‑Pacific 13 countries, Greater China and Taiwan Premium, USA and Asia‑Pacific 22 countries, Asia, Asia Premium Short Trip, China, Japan and Asia 11 countries and ASIA 22 (eSIM) plans provide coverage for China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and South Korea, with Japan also featured in most of these packages. Additionally, the Global Special, CMI Global Multi‑Region, Global and Global Not Include Mainland China plans extend that coverage to include Mongolia while still covering China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea. Similarly, the APAC Yearly and Global 72 countries plans list China, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Macau and Taiwan. In short, across Giga.Tel’s eSIM plans the East Asian countries that are covered are China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and, in certain plans, Mongolia.
