Vietnam eSIM vs Prepaid SIM Card: Is It Worth Switching?
No Fake SIM or Identity Fraud Risks
Airport stalls in Hanoi and HCMC often sell SIMs registered under fake local identities, risking sudden deactivation. eSIM is issued directly to your device, eliminating third-party fraud.
Avoid 80%+ Sunk Cost on 30-Day Plans
Viettel's V160B plan (160,000 VND) forces a 30-day cycle with daily data reset. A 5-day trip wastes over 80% of the plan. Roami's 7-day plans from $1.99/GB eliminate this waste.
Pay with Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay & More
Local top-up often requires scratch cards or cash; foreign credit cards are frequently rejected. eSIM accepts Visa, Mastercard, AMEX, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and PayPal for hassle-free payment.
Bypass Vietnam's Strict SIM Passport Requirements
Vietnam mandates passport registration for all prepaid SIMs. Viettel requires sending 'TTTB' to 1414 for verification, and Mobifone demands a passport photocopy. eSIM activates instantly with zero paperwork.

You will not need a local phone number, as the data connection handles all communication. This ensures your family and friends can reach you on your usual number without interruption. -
What are the best eSIM options for a Vietnam tourist visiting for two weeks?

How does Roami compare to other providers like Airalo or Holafly for an esim in Vietnam?
Roami offers a direct comparison to providers like Airalo and Holafly by providing competitive pricing and robust data options. While Airalo esim Vietnam plans are known for their budget-friendly options, Roami often includes customer support and easy top-ups. Holafly Vietnam plans typically feature unlimited data, but Roami's unlimited option at $40.99 for 15 days is a strong contender. Ultimately, the best esim for Vietnam depends on your specific data needs and travel duration, with Roami providing flexible choices. -

The entire installation takes just a few minutes, and your data will be ready to use immediately upon arrival in Vietnam. -
Can I use a Vietnam eSIM if my phone is locked to a specific carrier?
Using a Vietnam eSIM on a carrier-locked phone is generally not possible, as the eSIM needs a network that is not your home carrier. You will need an unlocked device to install and activate any esim for Vietnam. Before purchasing, check with your current carrier to see if your phone is unlocked or request an unlock. Most modern smartphones from major brands are sold unlocked, but it is always best to verify. -
Do I need to remove my physical SIM card to use a Vietnam eSIM?
No, you do not need to remove your physical SIM card to use a Vietnam eSIM. Your device can hold both a physical SIM and an eSIM, allowing you to use both lines simultaneously. You can set the Vietnam eSIM as your primary line for data while keeping your home SIM for calls and texts. This dual-SIM functionality is very convenient for travelers who want to stay reachable on their home number. -
What happens to my data plan if I travel to a different region in Vietnam?
Your Vietnam eSIM data plan works seamlessly across all regions of the country, from Ho Chi Minh City to the highlands of Sapa. Since the eSIM connects to local operators like Viettel, you will experience consistent coverage as you move between provinces. There are no roaming charges within Vietnam, so you can use your data freely wherever you go. This makes it an excellent choice for travelers exploring multiple destinations. -
Why should I choose Roami over buying a physical tourist SIM card at the airport?
Choosing Roami's Vietnam esim offers several advantages over a physical SIM card, including instant activation and no need to visit a store. With an eSIM, you can set up your plan before you even arrive, saving time at the airport. You also avoid the hassle of handling a small card and the risk of losing it. Additionally, Roami's customer support is available online to help with any issues, whereas physical SIMs may require a trip back to the vendor.
