Mobile internet worked fine with the dtac network, mostly on 5G in Phuket. But unfortunately, tethering stopped working after two days. Also, the SMS I received after inquiring about my data usage was unclear about how much data I had left. It simply mentioned “max internet speed” without specifying the 50GB limit or my current usage.
I bought similar dtac eSIM products from other providers in my past trips and tethering worked just fine with them.
Bought their Thailand 50GB eSIM. It’s a local eSIM from dtac which provides much better latency compared to roaming eSIMs. Plus, it comes with a local Thai number for SMS which is nice.
The speed varies but mostly satisfactory. Coverage was good too.
Their app doesn’t show data balance for this type of eSIM and I had to dial to check its validity but 50GB was certainly more than enough for my 1-week trip.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Nomad offer unlimited data eSIM for Thailand?
Nomad’s plans that carry the word “Unlimited” are capped at 2 GB of high‑speed data per day. After that daily limit is reached the tier is considered restricted; the plan does not provide truly unlimited high‑speed data throughout its validity period.
For travelers needing larger continuous allocations, Nomad offers fixed‑data alternatives for Thailand, such as a 50 GB plan valid for 10 days and a 30 GB plan valid for 60 days. These plans may be a more cost‑effective choice if you expect to use more data than 20 GB (the total of two daily 10 day periods) over the duration of your stay.
Does Nomad offer Thailand eSIM with phone number and SMS?
Nomad does not provide a Thailand eSIM that includes a local phone number or SMS capability. Travelers who need calling or texting support will have to rely on internet‑based messaging and VoIP apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage, while Nomad’s Thailand offerings are limited to data‑only plans.
How many data plans does Nomad offer for Thailand?
In Thailand, Nomad offers 6 single‑country data plans and 36 multi‑country data plans. Prices for these plans range from $4 to $170, while data caps vary from 1 GB to 50 GB. The catalogue contains both fixed data cap plans, which provide a set amount of data for the entire validity period, and daily data cap plans, where the user is limited to a specific amount of data each day.
