Where to buy a SIM card for Thailand?

The best way to buy a data SIM card for Thailand is through online stores, which offer cheap rates. You could also purchase a SIM card after you’ve arrived in Thailand from stores in airports or in the city.

Buy before you travel.

Why should you buy your SIM card before traveling? Let’s take a look at the advantages:

  1. 1. Connectivity the moment you land

If you purchase your SIM card from a store like Holafly before you leave, you’ll be able to connect to the internet the moment you touch down in Thailand, so you can order a cab or let your family know you’re safe. It will also save you time so you can start exploring Thailand straight away. The less time you spend at the airport, the better.

2. One cheap, upfront cost

Cellular providers in Thailand offer higher prices, especially for tourists. Don’t get ripped off. If you buy from Holafly’s online store, you’ll pay one low upfront price.

Buy your SIM card in Thailand.

Buying your SIM card in Thailand might be more expensive and be a hassle. However, it does offer one advantage:

  • More options

Stores in Thailand might offer more data plans, allowing you to pick the option which best suits your needs. You’ll also be able to choose between different providers in Thailand. We recommend AIS or DTAC as they offer the best coverage in Thailand.

Virtual SIM card for Thailand, the new alternative

Now we’ve learned about data SIM cards. It’s time to meet the newest way to access an internet connection. eSIMs (short for embedded SIM) are new, digital SIM cards that provide internet at a competitive price. But is an eSIM better than a traditional SIM card? The main advantage is that you can get a digital SIM card anywhere in the world, and it’s delivered to you via email immediately! Let’s take a look at their advantages and disadvantages in the next section:

Advantages and disadvantages of the virtual SIM card

Advantages:

  • Quick purchase and activation processes

Purchasing and activating an eSIM is easy. You just purchase from a store like Holafly and within a few seconds you’ll receive a QR code on your emails. With this, you can activate your eSIM and remain connected.

  • Get an eSIM anywhere in the world.

Are you already in Thailand and struggling to stay online? No matter where you are, you can always buy an eSIM, which will arrive directly to your cellphone. There is no shipping fee and you don’t have to wait more than a few minutes.

  • Affordable rates

Compared to paying data roaming charges, eSIMs are incredibly cheap. You pay one upfront fee for the eSIM, so you don’t have to worry about surprise bills. Holafly offers eSIM deals for as little as $41!

  • Multi-country coverage

If you’re traveling around multiple countries on your vacation, with Holafly’s multi-country virtual SIM cards, you can connect to the internet in several Asian countries.

Disadvantages:

  • Limited compatibility with cellphones

The main disadvantage of eSIM cards is their limited compatibility. As a new technology, many older cellphones don’t support eSIMs, so before you buy, check if your cellphone is compatible.

Frequently Asked Questions about SIM cards for Thailand

Any questions? See below for the most frequent questions about connectivity in Thailand.

What other options offer me internet in Thailand?

You can activate data roaming and use data provided by your current domestic provider. But be aware that this will be very expensive. If you intend to use this option, you should expect a hefty phone bill when you get back home. Alternatively, you could buy Pocket Wi-Fi (a portable device that generates a WiFi connection for your phone). This option is also expensive and you’ll have to carry the device everywhere. A virtual SIM card for Thailand is the cheapest and most convenient way of connecting to the internet.

How much does Roaming cost in Thailand?

Roaming service is one of the most expensive options to connect to the internet abroad. It could cost you between $7 and $15 per MB. Watching a movie on Netflix at this rate could cost hundreds.

What do I do if my virtual SIM card doesn’t work in Thailand?

If you experience any problems, just contact Holafly’s 24/7 customer support service.
