How it works

Three steps to data in Bhutan

  1. Choose a plan and pay

    The data amount and duration are shown before you pay. You can top up your P2D balance, for example via SBP.

  2. Install the eSIM with the QR code

    The QR code arrives right after payment. Scan it in your phone settings — at home, on Wi-Fi, is the easier moment.

  3. Turn the eSIM on in Bhutan

    Select the eSIM for mobile data and allow data roaming for it. Your main number stays reachable.

FAQ

Common questions about an eSIM for Bhutan

Short answers to the questions that come up most often before you buy and install an eSIM.

How much does an eSIM for Bhutan cost?

Plans for Bhutan start at $4.73 — that is 1 GB for 7 days. A 10 GB plan for 30 days costs $29.90.

Which plan should I choose for a trip?

For a trip of a few days, 1–7 day packs are enough: for example, 1 GB for 7 days at $4.73. For two weeks or longer, 30-day packs are more convenient: 3 GB — $10.94, 5 GB — $16.07, 10 GB — $29.90, 20 GB — $56.08.

When should I install the eSIM — before the trip to Bhutan or after landing?

It is easier to install the eSIM at home, while you have Wi-Fi: the QR code arrives right after payment. Turn it on for mobile data once you are in Bhutan. If a plan has a special rule for when the period starts, it is shown on the plan card.

Will I keep my number, WhatsApp and Telegram?

Yes. An eSIM only provides mobile data, and your main SIM stays in the phone: calls and SMS to your number keep coming in while it is enabled. Messengers keep the same account and number.

Can one eSIM be used in several countries?

Yes. Bhutan is in the regional pack “Asia” (6 countries, from $1.65). One eSIM works in every country in the pack.

Will my phone work?

The phone must support eSIM and must not be locked to a carrier. Most iPhones from the XS on, Google Pixels and Samsung flagships support eSIM — check the settings for an “Add eSIM” item.

Can I share the internet from the eSIM?

That depends on the pack and the local network. Where sharing is supported, you can share data with a laptop or another phone — the terms are on the plan card.
