Local know-how
What to know before you land in Thailand
Coverage and networks
Thailand has two big network groups after its telecom merger: AIS and True (with dtac). Both blanket Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket and the islands; AIS is often the pick for the far north and rural routes. The plan card names your network.
Landing and activation
Install before departure and toggle on at Suvarnabhumi or Don Mueang. Airport SIM counters are famous but queue-heavy; an eSIM skips the line entirely.
Which plan fits your trip
Two weeks of islands and cities fits 10 GB for most travelers; ride-hailing, translation and maps are constant companions here. Continuing to Vietnam, Malaysia or Singapore? The Asia regional bundle keeps it to one eSIM.

Land, switch it on
Set the GetSim eSIM as your default for cellular data. Your home SIM keeps handling calls and 2FA SMS in the background.
Your real number stays online. The eSIM only handles data. Calls, SMS, banking 2FA all keep arriving on your home SIM.
Crossing borders?
Going to more than just Thailand?
A regional bundle covers Thailand and 195+ other countries on a single eSIM, often cheaper than buying separate single-country plans for a multi-stop trip.
Frequently asked about Thailand eSIMs
Yes. The GetSim eSIM installs as a second profile on your phone. Your home SIM and number stay active for calls and SMS. Set the GetSim eSIM as the default for cellular data only.
Plans run on tier-1 mobile networks in Thailand. The exact carrier depends on the plan; you'll see the network name on each plan card before you pay.
Typical activation is 1–3 minutes after switching the eSIM on. Many travelers install the eSIM at home over Wi-Fi and toggle it on the moment the plane lands.
GetSim eSIMs are data-only. For voice and SMS, use apps like WhatsApp, FaceTime, Signal or Telegram. They all work seamlessly over the eSIM data. If you need a real phone number for verifications, pair the eSIM with a GetSim virtual number from the same wallet.
Top up the eSIM directly from your dashboard or the GetSim app, no need to install a new profile. Top-ups are billed per-GB at the same rate as the original plan.
