The traveller's

Thailand eSIM

A digital data plan for your trip to Thailand. Buy it at home, install it in minutes and land already connected.

What is a travel eSIM?

An eSIM is a SIM card built into your phone rather than slotted into it. Instead of buying a plastic card, you install a mobile data profile by scanning a QR code. Most phones sold in the last few years support it, and most can run an eSIM alongside your normal SIM at the same time.

A travel eSIM is simply a short-term data plan for a specific country or region. You buy it for the length of your trip, use it for maps, messaging, rides and bookings, and it expires when you are done. There is nothing to return or cancel.

Why travellers use one in Thailand

Thailand is easy to travel and hard to travel offline. Ride-hailing, food delivery, ferry timetables, QR payments and hotel check-ins all assume you have data. A travel eSIM removes the first hour of friction after a long flight.

Online at the airport

Book a ride, load your hotel address and message home before you have cleared the taxi rank.

Predictable cost

You pay a fixed price for a fixed data amount, instead of discovering your home operator's roaming rate afterwards.

No queues or paperwork

No airport counter, no shop, no Thai ID. Everything happens on your phone before you leave home.

How Sabaibars works

  1. 1

    Buy before you travel

    Choose a data size, pay online and receive your eSIM QR code by email. Nothing ships, so you can buy the night before you fly.

  2. 2

    Install digitally

    Scan the QR code while you are on Wi-Fi at home. The eSIM profile is added to your phone alongside your existing SIM.

  3. 3

    Connect when it's active

    Switch the eSIM on for mobile data when you arrive. Your plan becomes active once it connects to a network in Thailand.

  4. 4

    No SIM swapping

    Your home SIM stays exactly where it is. Nothing to pop out, nothing to lose in a hostel drawer, nothing to put back on the flight home.

Our plans provide reliable mobile data across Thailand and are data-only, so they do not include a Thai phone number for calls or SMS. See the installation guide and device compatibility before you buy.
