Thailand SIM and eSIM: registration, validity and calls

Choose a Thai tourist SIM or eSIM: passport registration, the 60-day rule, activation, SMS and phone compatibility, with AIS, True and NBTC sources.

Can I get a local tourist eSIM in Thailand?

AIS and True offer tourist eSIMs, with registration required before use. True specifies passport registration. Tourist registration and generic forms for Thai subscribers are different processes.

Sources and check dates

Can a top-up extend a tourist SIM beyond 60 days?

The NBTC announcement limits tourist SIM use to 60 days; topping up alone does not extend that limit. Continuing requires registration or identity verification again. True also specifies the packaged validity, capped at 60 days, and passport re-identification. This is tourist SIM validity, not a promise of 60 days of data in every package.

Sources and check dates

How does an activation deadline differ from package and number validity?

AIS separately describes activation within 60 days after registration and identity re-confirmation to continue beyond 60 days after activation. The data package has its own selected-offer duration. Adding balance does not replace identity verification or automatically renew a tourist number.

Sources and check dates

Does data-only mean there are no incoming SMS?

No: the detailed terms for True’s 10-day data-only product allow incoming voice, SMS and MMS, but exclude ordinary outgoing calls/messages and VoWiFi. Other products can differ. These terms do not guarantee delivery of a particular bank’s verification codes.

Sources and check dates

What is required to install an eSIM?

AIS requires a compatible device and stable Wi-Fi for installation; True also highlights supported network frequencies. Generic myAIS instructions contain Thai identity-card fields. AIS publishes a separate passport-based tourist procedure; identity re-confirmation is also available at AIS shops.

Vietnam SIM and eSIM: documents, setup and number conditions

Local Vietnam eSIMs: passport checks, compatibility, conversion and calls, with practical answers sourced from Vietnamobile, Viettel, VNPT and MobiFone.

Are local eSIMs available in Vietnam?

Yes. Vietnamobile publishes eSIM activation instructions, VNPT describes obtaining a VinaPhone eSIM, and MobiFone describes a tourist eSIM through Hi Vietnam. Vietnamobile sends the installation QR code by email after successful identity verification.

Sources and check dates

What documents and checks might the operator request?

Vietnamobile’s instructions include identity-document images, including a passport, a portrait, OTP/signature confirmation and video verification. Viettel’s initial tourist portal asks for a passport image, portrait and email. Vietnamobile provides video verification daily from 07:00 to 21:00. Approval depends on successful identity verification.

Sources and check dates

How can a passport holder convert a physical VinaPhone SIM to eSIM?

VNPT DigiShop describes assisted setup at a shop with a valid passport, device and access to the current SIM when converting an existing number. The illustrated MyVNPT online process requires Vietnamese citizen-ID images, face verification and OTP: it is not the same passport-based procedure. Successful conversion disables the old physical SIM.

Sources and check dates

Does a Vietnamese eSIM include calls and SMS?

That depends on the plan, not the eSIM format. MobiFone’s Hi Vietnam announcement describes domestic-call benefits, so a local tourist eSIM need not be data-only. Voice and SMS allowances belong to the selected plan. Having an eSIM does not itself guarantee a particular bank’s verification codes.

Sources and check dates

What is required for setup and continued access during SIM conversion?

VNPT specifies a compatible device, stable Wi-Fi or hotspot and identity/OTP checks; model and regional-variant differences matter. Converting an existing number requires access to the active SIM until verification is complete. Package duration depends on the selected plan and is distinct from number validity.
