data roaming worked somehow but there is no support.
There is mentioned to postpone the start but it was impossible. When I tried to contact support, no help, no answer. It was last time I used this company. Never again. I cannot recommend.

Do not recommend. The esim did not work at all. It connected to the country’s network but cellular data did not start. Scam.

The price is low but the service is not reliable or consistent. It would only work sometimes, or otherwise, it would be unusable at a crawling slow speed. Try a cheap one-day pass ~$1 to see if it works before committing.

It never worked properly. Not even to receive messages on WhatsApp. I wasted way too much time with the whole procedure for nothing to work. In the end I had to buy a card. run away

First of all, communication is not possible at all.
Then it is difficult to connect to support.
Finally, if the operator cannot solve the problem, they leave the customer alone to avoid getting a bad rating.
In addition, refund policy is ignored.
You should not sign up with this company.

I am currently in Pakistan. I am using Mobimatter 17GB, 365days Asia Pacific plan. If I trust my ipad bar, signal is very strong, but I cannot see even a small web page. 4 out of 5, it fails, even when it succeed , it takes many minutes to download a simple page. Please find what is the problem. Is it because of this region(Hunza)? Because in china, it was OK. But I don't think you can call Pakistan service area, if the service quality is this low.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many travel eSIM brands (providers) are available for use in South Asia, and how many prepaid data plans are there?

More than 50 providers offer over 800 prepaid data plans for South Asia. There is a wide variety of options, making it easy for travelers to find an eSIM that suits their needs.

Are there any unlimited data eSIM plans available for South Asia?

There are two eSIM providers that offer unlimited data plans for travelers to South Asia. Truely offers unlimited data for 1 to 30 days, priced between roughly $5.52 and $89.91 USD, and includes tethering although speeds may be throttled during high‑traffic periods. Yoho Mobile also sells unlimited plans for the same validity period, with prices ranging from about $8.97 to $449.07 USD; these plans allow tethering but impose a speed limit of around 5 Mbps and also apply general throttling when needed. Both providers tailor their unlimited options to provide broad connectivity over shared networks, so while data volumes are effectively infinite, actual speeds can fluctuate based on network load and the specific plan’s throttling rules.

Can I get a travel eSIM with a phone number and SMS for South Asia?

Yes, travel eSIMs that include a phone number and SMS capability are available for South Asia. Roamify offers a range of Global Premium eSIM plans that provide inbound and outbound voice calls and SMS. These plans come with a phone number under the dialing code +1, which is not a local South Asia number but foreign number from the United States.

Roamify’s plans start at $15.00 USD for 1 GB of data and 7 days of validity and scale up to $105.00 USD for 20 GB of data with 365 days of validity. The plans include the same dialing code +1 for all options, allowing voice and SMS communication in and out of South Asia using that foreign number.
