Nomad eSIM Data Plans for Vietnam

Nomad does not provide a plan that offers truly unlimited high‑speed data for Vietnam. All of its plans that are branded as “unlimited” actually give a maximum of 2 GB per day; once that daily quota is reached, the speed drops to 1000 kbps. Because the data allowance is capped, these plans are not equivalent to a real unlimited data offering.

Nomad does offer fixed‑data plans for travelers in Vietnam. For example, a 30‑day plan gives 50 GB for $39.00 USD, and a regional 45‑day plan supplies 50 GB for $51.00 USD. These higher‑cap, fixed‑data options can be more cost‑effective for most users unless their data usage is extremely high.

Nomad does not provide a phone number or SMS capability for eSIM plans in Vietnam; only data‑only plans are available from the provider. Travelers can use popular VoIP apps such as WhatsApp, Telegram, or iMessage over the data connection for calls and messaging, but some destinations may block or restrict access to specific apps or VoIP services, so users should verify that the apps they rely on work in Vietnam before purchasing.

Nomad lists seven single‑country plans for Vietnam and 28 multi‑country plans that include Vietnam. The plans available to travelers vary from about $4 to $129 and offer data caps ranging from 1 GB to 50 GB, while validity can last anywhere from 5 to 365 days. The majority of the plans provide a fixed data amount that can be used over the entire validity period; a smaller subset of plans imposes a daily data cap, limiting how much data can be consumed each day. Tethering is permitted on most plans, and if usage exceeds the allotted data a reduced speed of 1 GB per day is enforced.
