Mobile data in Thailand for travelers: eSIM, roaming or local SIM card

There are three ways to stay connected in Thailand: your home carrier’s roaming, a local SIM card or a travel eSIM. Roaming works right away, but mobile data on roaming is often more expensive. A local SIM card is bought on arrival, usually at a carrier store with your passport.

An eSIM for Thailand is a virtual SIM card with mobile data that you buy online before you leave. It connects to local networks (TrueMove H, DTAC, True Move), while your main SIM card stays in your phone: calls and texts to your number come through as usual.
