Frequently Asked Questions

Vietnam eSIM

Buy the Airlivo Vietnam eSIM online, install it before you fly by scanning the QR code, then switch it on when you land. There's no physical SIM to swap and no shop to visit — you're connected as soon as the local network is detected.
The Airlivo Vietnam eSIM connects to a major local network such as Viettel, giving fast 4G/LTE. Viettel has the widest reach in the country, so coverage is strong not only in cities but also in mountains, coastal areas and rural regions.
Yes. On a Viettel-based network you'll have coverage in northern hotspots like Sapa and Ha Giang, along the coast, and on islands such as Phu Quoc and Cat Ba. Signal can drop out on remote boat trips around Ha Long Bay or on high mountain passes, then returns as you get closer to towns.
While you still have Wi-Fi at home, open the email from Airlivo and scan the QR code to install the eSIM. Leave it turned off until you land, then enable data roaming for the eSIM line. Doing the install at home means you're online the minute you reach Vietnam.
For maps, Grab, messaging and social media, 3-5 GB covers a one-week trip for most travellers. If you'll stream video, upload lots of photos or use your phone as a hotspot, pick 10 GB or an unlimited plan.
Match the plan to your route and length of stay: Airlivo Vietnam data plans go from 1 GB up to 50 GB and unlimited. If you're heading north to Sapa or Ha Giang, prioritise a Viettel-based plan for coverage over the cheapest option. Buy before you fly so you land connected.
Yes. Grab — Vietnam's main app for car and motorbike rides and food delivery — runs on your eSIM data just like any other app. Set up the Grab account and add a payment method before your trip so you can book a ride straight from the airport.
It's a data-only eSIM, so it doesn't come with a Vietnamese phone number. You can still call and message over the internet with WhatsApp, Zalo, Messenger or FaceTime, and your usual number stays reachable on your main SIM.
The eSIM works nationwide, so it activates as soon as you land at any Vietnamese airport — Noi Bai (Hanoi), Tan Son Nhat (Ho Chi Minh City), Da Nang, Cam Ranh (Nha Trang) or Phu Quoc. Turn on data roaming for the eSIM line after landing and you're online right away.
Local physical SIMs in Vietnam legally require passport registration, and you'd need to find a shop after landing. A tourist eSIM skips all of that: you buy and install it online in advance, with no registration and no counter queue. It's the simplest way to be connected the moment you arrive.

Travel Tips

Vietnam — Useful tips for your trip

1

Vietnam's currency is the dong (VND) and cash is still king for street food, markets and small towns — though cities increasingly take cards and Grab pay. Withdraw from ATMs rather than airport exchange desks, and watch the zeros: 20,000 and 500,000 notes look similar.

2

Download Grab before you travel — it's the go-to app for cheap car and motorbike rides and food delivery, with the price fixed in-app so there's no haggling. It needs data, which your eSIM covers.

3

In Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City the traffic is a river of motorbikes. To cross, step out slowly and steadily and keep a predictable pace — the bikes will flow around you. Don't stop suddenly or run back.

4

Vietnam runs on 220V with mostly Type A and C sockets (flat US-style or round two-pin plugs fit). A universal adapter is handy, and most modern chargers handle the voltage automatically.

5

Vietnam stretches over 1,600 km, so the weather splits by region: the north (Hanoi, Sapa) has cool, even cold winters, while the south (Ho Chi Minh City, the Mekong) is tropical year-round. Pack for the specific regions and season on your route.

6

Don't drink the tap water — stick to bottled or filtered water, which is cheap and everywhere. It's also worth carrying hand sanitiser and being a little cautious with ice in very rural spots.

7

Save offline Google Maps for each city before you go, and keep Google Translate handy — its camera mode reads menus and signs. Both, plus Grab and messaging, run on your eSIM data, so a little planning keeps you moving smoothly.

Vietnam — Ha Long Bay, Hoi An, Hanoi with pho and street coffee, Ho Chi Minh City and the famous rice terraces in Sapa. Order your eSIM, get your QR code instantly, set up before you fly. Connected in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang and everywhere, no roaming.
