- eSIM Installation Notes -

  • Installing an eSIM requires a stable internet connection (WiFi or cellular data).
  • After installing an eSIM, the activation period only begins after you switch to the eSIM and have network access upon arrival in your destination. It is recommended to install/set up the eSIM before traveling abroad and then switch to it upon arrival (with data roaming enabled).
  • If you encounter an "Invalid code" message during scanning or installation, it's usually due to a duplicate scan. Please go to "Settings" > "Mobile Services" and check if new plans such as "Personal," "Travel," "Business," "Secondary," or "Mobile Data" have appeared in the list. If they are displayed (usually at the bottom), the installation was successful and you do not need to scan or install again.

Please confirm that your device is suitable for eSIM before purchasing. This product is non-refundable after sending the eSIM QR code.
