No, a local SIM card is not required. You can use an eSIM from Vlex eSIM to get online in Mongolia without having to buy a physical SIM card.
Internet speed in Mongolia can vary by region. In major cities such as Ulaanbaatar and Darkhan, speeds are generally faster and more stable than in rural areas.
Most modern smartphones support eSIM, but it’s recommended to check your device’s compatibility before you travel. Make sure your phone is unlocked and supports the eSIM standard.
In Ulaanbaatar and other major cities such as Erdenet, internet coverage is good. However, in remote and rural areas, such as the Gobi Desert, coverage can be limited.
To activate an eSIM in Mongolia, simply scan the QR code provided by your eSIM provider and follow the on-screen instructions. This is usually cheaper and more convenient than using international roaming from your home carrier.

Couldn't find the QR setting on my Samsung at first. Support replied quickly and walked me through it.

My main SIM stayed in place, bank SMS kept coming while data went through the eSIM. Handy.

Mongolia is a land of endless steppes, majestic mountains, and unique culture. While traveling through this amazing country, you’ll want to stay connected, share your experiences, and find the information you need at any moment. With an eSIM from Vlex eSIM, you can forget about complicated roaming options and searching for local SIM cards.
Roaming in Mongolia can be very expensive, especially if you plan to use mobile internet actively. Local SIM cards take time to buy and activate, and this can be difficult because of the language barrier. With eSIM, you get internet access immediately upon arrival — no queues and no extra hassle.
If you plan to stay in Mongolia for 7–14 days and actively use mobile internet for social media and navigation, we recommend a 3–5 GB package. For streaming video and video calls, it’s better to choose 10 GB or an unlimited Day Pass. To accurately estimate how much data you need, use our calculator on the home page.
eSIM is supported by devices such as: iPhone XS and newer, Samsung Galaxy S20+, Google Pixel 3+, Huawei P40 Pro, and most modern smartphones. Make sure your phone is unlocked (not tied to a specific carrier) before you make a purchase.
Buy an eSIM for Mongolia right now and enjoy mobile internet from the very first minutes of your stay — with no overpayments, no queues, and no hassle.
