Sim Local eSIM Data Plans for East Asia

Sim Local does not provide unlimited data eSIM plans for East Asia. Travelers who need larger data allowances can choose fixed data plans such as the Orange Holiday World 20 GB plan, which offers 20 GB of data for 31 days at $35.00 USD and covers China, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Mongolia, Macau, Taiwan, and 146 additional countries. Another example is the Asia 20 GB plan, also 20 GB for 31 days at $35.00 USD, covering the same core East Asian countries plus 27 others. For most users, these fixed data plans are more cost‑effective unless they require an extremely high amount of data beyond what a 20 GB allowance provides.

<|channel|>analysis<|message|>We need to generate an FAQ answer for the question: "Does Sim Local offer East Asia eSIM with phone number and SMS?" According to the guidelines, we should state that there's no plans with phone number or SMS available, only data-only plans. Also mention that VoIP can be used for communication. The dataset says: "Sim Local plans with telephony for East Asia: No plans with phone number or SMS available from this provider." So indeed the answer: Sim Local does not offer eSIM with phone number and SMS for East Asia. Only data-only eSIM plans. Mention VoIP apps for calling and texting. Need to adhere to style: no headings, no bullet points, one or two short paragraphs.

We should keep neutrality.

Also we should follow the phone-number-and-sms-rules: "State clearly that eSIM plans with a phone number or SMS are not available for East Asia. Clarify that only data-only eSIM plans are offered. Explain that popular VoIP apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage work over data connections and can be used for calls and messaging without a phone number or SMS capability."

Use short paragraphs.

Use "East Asia" exactly.

Make sure not to use emdashes. Use commas, parentheses, etc. Use full sentences. Avoid marketing claims. Avoid repeating the question. We cannot mention dataset or instructions. We must keep concise (one or two short paragraphs). Use "Sim Local" explicitly to talk about provider.

We likely produce answer:

"Sim Local does not provide an East Asia eSIM that includes a phone number or SMS services. The provider offers only data‑only eSIM plans for the East Asia region. Travelers can still make voice calls and send messages using VoIP applications such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and iMessage, which operate over the data connection."

We should not mention "the answer" or "We" or "Yes". Should not start with "No, Sim Local..."? Let's see guidelines: "State clearly that eSIM plans with a phone number or SMS are not available for East Asia." That could be "Sim Local does not provide an East Asia eSIM that includes a phone number or SMS." So we can start with that. Then mention data-only. Then mention VoIP.

Plan is concise.

Check guidelines: "Write from third-person perspective, as eSIMDB is independent, do not use pronouns like 'this provider'." Use "Sim Local" explicitly.

Make sure no "For example", etc.

No headings or bullet points.

Yes.

Ok we comply.

The final answer will be one or two paragraphs: How many words? Possibly 90 words? We can produce two short paragraphs. That's fine.

Now I'll craft final answer.<|end|><|start|>assistant<|channel|>final<|message|>Sim Local does not offer an East Asia eSIM that includes a phone number or SMS services.

Sim Local offers coverage in the East Asian countries of China, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Macau, Taiwan and Mongolia. The Global plan includes the first six countries; the Orange Holiday World and Asia plans expand that selection by adding Mongolia as well.
