Before you order

Your phone supports eSIM. Check your phone settings for an option to add an eSIM.

Your phone is unlocked. A phone locked to your home carrier cannot use another network’s eSIM.

One eSIM per phone. Travelling as a group? Order one for each phone.

Keep your home SIM. Most eSIM phones hold both, so your own number stays on for texts.

Order your Thailand eSIM

No payment now. Our concierge checks your order and emails a payment link.

Thailand eSIM questions

How do I buy an eSIM for Thailand?

Choose a True or DTAC plan in the order form and send it. Our concierge emails you a payment link, and once it is paid we email your eSIM QR code with setup steps.

True and DTAC share one network across Thailand, so coverage is the same. Pick the plan that fits your trip length and how much data you use.

No. These are data-only eSIMs. You can still call and message over apps like WhatsApp or LINE.

The days start when the eSIM first connects to the network in Thailand. You can install it at home before you fly.

Yes, you can share your data with a laptop or tablet.

No. There is no passport or ID registration.

Look in your phone settings for an option to add an eSIM or a digital SIM. Your phone must also be unlocked, meaning not tied to one carrier.

No. Anyone travelling to Thailand can order. If you booked your stay direct with Lofty Villas, add your booking reference to the form and get 10% off every eSIM plan. Stays booked through other websites, such as Airbnb or Booking.com, do not qualify.
