eSIM for Vietnam: what to know
Vietnam — from Hanoi and Ha Long Bay to Da Nang, Hoi An and Phu Quoc — is covered by Viettel, Vinaphone and Mobifone densely and cheaply: 4G works even in small coastal villages, and 5G is rolling out in the big cities. Local SIMs are cheap but sold against a passport with a photo, and there is a queue at the airport.
You need data in Vietnam constantly: Grab replaces taxis and delivery, a translator helps at markets, and maps guide you on a scooter over the Hai Van Pass.
Plans connect to Viettel Mobile, Vinaphone, MobiFone on 4G/5G. The network is picked automatically, and Wi-Fi hotspot is allowed.
There are 31 plans: 100 MB to 50 GB of data, valid 7 days to 180 days, from €1.00. Per-day plans are available too — handy for short trips. The best price per gigabyte is the 20 GB / 30 days plan at €21.05.
Traffic exits to the internet via HK / SG — keep this in mind for banking apps and geo-restricted services.
Install the profile before you travel, at home over Wi-Fi: validity starts the first time the eSIM joins a network at the destination, not at purchase.
Pay by international or Russian card, or in crypto. The eSIM QR code arrives by email within a couple of minutes — no account needed.
Tips for Vietnam
- Grab is the essential app in Vietnam: taxis, motorbike taxis and food. Install it before departure.
- On a Ha Long Bay cruise and in the Sapa mountains the signal is weak: download offline maps and tickets.
- 5 GB covers two weeks of maps and social feeds.
How much data you need
As a guide: maps, messengers and social feeds use about 500 MB a day; add video and calls and it is 1 GB or more.

14 days about 10 GB | 10 GB · 30 days | €11.47 |
