Thailand eSIM travel guide
We compared 248 eSIM plans for Thailand from Airalo, Holafly, Saily, Nomad, Maya, Yesim, Roamless, Virgin Connect Roam, Roam2Go, Breeze, MobiMatter, shibaSIM, Simbye, The SIM Shop.
Thailand is one of the cheapest countries in the world for mobile data, and you will use it constantly: Grab rides, Google Maps, translation, ferry bookings and food delivery all depend on it. A travel eSIM saves you from the queues at the airport SIM counters.
Networks and coverage
Thailand's main networks are AIS and True (now merged with dtac). Both have strong 4G and 5G in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket and other tourist areas, and good coverage on popular islands such as Koh Samui, Koh Phangan and Koh Phi Phi. Some remote beaches and national parks have weaker signal.
Island hopping
Ferries and long-tail boats often pass through areas with patchy signal. Download your boat tickets and hotel confirmations before you leave, and keep a little extra data for the days when you are moving between islands.
How much data you need
Because Thai data is cheap, fixed data plans are usually the best value. Around 1 GB a day covers maps, Grab, social media and some video. Choose unlimited only if you stream a lot or share a hotspot.
Fixed data or unlimited?
Fixed data plans are the cheapest choice for maps, messaging and browsing. If you use more than about 1.5 GB a day, compare the unlimited passes above.

Nomad: True / AIS / dtac
Saily, Maya: networks not named on their pages.

Your phone connects automatically to the network the eSIM uses. Hotspot rules are in the table above.
When should I install the eSIM?
Install it at home over Wi-Fi a day or two before you fly, and switch it on when you land. Keep your home SIM on for calls and SMS if you need them.
Visiting more than one country?
A regional eSIM covers several countries with one plan.
