Questions about Laos
Does this eSIM work in Luang Prabang?
Yes. Luang Prabang's UNESCO historic town, the Royal Palace Museum, and Wat Xieng Thong all have solid 4G. The night market also has good coverage.
Is there coverage in Vang Vieng?
Yes. Vang Vieng town and the tubing zone on the Nam Song River have 4G. Surrounding karst mountain trails thin to 3G.
Does the eSIM work at Kuang Si Falls?
Yes at the entrance ticket office and along the main path. The turquoise swimming pools at the base of the falls have 3G to 4G.
What currency is used in Laos?
Lao kip (LAK) is official, but Thai baht and US dollars are widely accepted — especially in tourist areas and for larger purchases. ATMs dispense kip; some also dispense USD.
Does this eSIM work on the Mekong Slow Boat from Thailand?
Coverage is available at river towns along the way (Pakbeng stop, Luang Prabang arrival). Open river sections between towns are typically without signal.
What is an eSIM?
An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital SIM built into your phone. Instead of a physical card, you scan a QR code and your plan installs instantly — no SIM tray needed.
Is my phone eSIM-compatible?
iPhone XS (2018) and newer, most Android flagships from 2020+, and all Samsung Galaxy S21+ devices support eSIM. Check our compatibility page for the full device list.
How do I install the eSIM?
After purchase, we email a QR code. On iPhone: Settings → Cellular → Add eSIM → Scan QR Code. On Android: Settings → Network & Internet → SIMs → Add eSIM. The whole process takes under 60 seconds.
Can I keep my regular SIM while using this eSIM?
Yes. Most phones support dual SIM (physical + eSIM). Keep your home number for calls and SMS — use Flysimio for data abroad. You control which SIM handles what in your phone Settings.
Does the eSIM include a hotspot (tethering)?
Yes, all Flysimio plans include mobile hotspot at no extra charge. Share your data connection with laptops, tablets, or other devices freely.
What happens when my data runs out?
You can top up data from your account dashboard at any time. Top-ups are applied instantly — no need to buy a new eSIM or wait.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. We offer a full refund within 14 days of purchase. Contact contact@flysimio.com with your order number.
How long is the eSIM valid for?
You have 6 months from your purchase date to activate the eSIM. Once activated, the plan validity period (e.g., 7 days, 30 days) begins counting down.
Will the eSIM work at the airport when I land?
Yes — as long as you installed the eSIM before your flight, it activates automatically when your phone connects to a local network on landing. No Wi-Fi required for activation.
What if the QR code doesn't scan?
If the QR code won't scan, you can enter the activation code manually — we include both in the email. You can also contact our 24/7 support team and we'll resend or manually provision your eSIM.
