A local SIM card or eSIM can significantly reduce your mobile internet costs in Vietnam. You can connect to one of the local operators such as Viettel, Mobifone, or Vinaphone and get access to much better rates compared to international roaming.
In major cities and popular tourist destinations such as Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and Da Nang, internet coverage is excellent. On islands like Phu Quoc and in more remote areas, coverage can be less stable, but it is still sufficient for most everyday needs.
If your phone supports eSIM, you can use it in Vietnam without any issues. Make sure your device is unlocked and supports the network bands used by local operators to avoid connectivity problems.
To activate an eSIM in Vietnam, first check that your phone supports eSIM. Then choose a provider, such as Viettel or Mobifone, get a QR code for activation, and follow the on-screen instructions on your device to complete the setup.
Yes, social networks and messaging apps work in Vietnam without restrictions. You can freely use Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and other popular apps, but keep in mind that for high-quality calls and stable performance, you should have a reliable internet connection.

Vietnam is not only Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, but also scenic bays, rice terraces and the beaches of Phu Quoc. For a comfortable trip in this amazing country, you need a reliable mobile internet connection: to find restaurants, order taxis via apps and share your travel moments with friends.
Roaming rates from Russian operators in Vietnam can be quite expensive, and buying a local SIM card (Viettel, Mobifone, Vinaphone) takes time and effort. With eSIM you get internet access immediately upon arrival, without searching for mobile shops or providing documents.
If your trip lasts from 7 to 14 days and you plan to actively use social networks and maps, we recommend choosing a 3–5 GB package. For streaming video and video calls, choose 10 GB or an unlimited Day Pass. Use our data calculator on the homepage to estimate how much data you need.
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 not locked to a specific carrier (unlocked).
Buy an eSIM for Vietnam today and enjoy mobile internet from the first minutes of your trip — with no extra costs and no hassle.
