About the Vietnam eSIM

Popular with Australian travellers heading to Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang.
Data only, with no local phone number: use WhatsApp, iMessage or FaceTime for calls. Delivered by email in minutes, so you can install it before you fly. Your plan starts when you connect in Vietnam. The MobiFone 50GB 10-day plan starts when you dial 900 on arrival.

Which networks does the Vietnam eSIM use?
It uses Viettel Mobile, MobiFone and Vinaphone, and joins whichever has the best signal where you are. The 50GB 10-day deal runs on MobiFone only. You get 5G where the network has it, if your phone supports 5G, and 4G everywhere else.
Do Google, Facebook and WhatsApp work in Vietnam?
Yes. Nothing you use at home is blocked: Google Maps, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and Messenger all work. Locals message on Zalo, and some hotels and tour guides will ask to reach you on it.
Is there signal in Ha Long Bay, Sapa and Ha Giang?
Mostly. Ha Long Bay cruises and Sapa town have good signal. On the Ha Giang Loop it drops on some mountain passes, so download offline maps before you ride.
Which ride apps work in Vietnam?
Grab, Be and Xanh SM all work for cars and motorbike taxis. Xanh SM runs electric taxis in the big cities.
Is there 5G in Vietnam?
Yes, in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang and other big cities, on Viettel and Vinaphone. Outside them it's 4G, which handles maps and video calls well.
When does my Vietnam plan start?
When the eSIM first connects to a network in Vietnam. Install it on Wi-Fi a day or two before you fly: the days don't start counting until you land. The 50GB 10-day deal starts when you dial 900 and press 1 after landing. Install it before you fly and dial on arrival.
Can I use the Vietnam eSIM as a hotspot?
Yes. Every Vietnam plan can share its data with a laptop, a tablet or a travel partner's phone. Anything you share comes off the same plan.
Does the Vietnam eSIM include calls and texts?
No, it's data only, with no local number. Call and text over WhatsApp, iMessage or FaceTime. Your Australian number stays on your phone, so texts like bank codes still arrive.
