No. An eSIM can be installed only once, and it locks to the first device it is installed on. It cannot be moved to another phone, re-scanned, or reinstalled afterward, and it is non-refundable once installed. Please install your eSIM on the device you plan to keep using. If you are switching devices and need help, contact our support team.

No, there's no need for IMEI registration when using your EastESIM in Indonesia! This is a significant advantage for travelers. The Indonesian government's IMEI registration policy primarily applies to devices using local SIM cards to prevent long-term usage by unregistered phones. Since EastESIM operates as an international roaming service, your device is exempt from this requirement. You can activate your EastESIM and enjoy seamless connectivity without any bureaucratic hurdles, keeping your Indonesian adventure smooth from arrival.

Absolutely! Your EastESIM is designed for extensive coverage across Indonesia's most beloved destinations. We ensure strong 4G/LTE connectivity not just in major hubs like Jakarta and popular Bali spots such as Canggu, Ubud, and Seminyak, but also on the serene beaches of Lombok and the picturesque Gili Islands. Even venturing to the remote beauty of the Komodo Islands, you'll find reliable service, allowing you to share every moment of your Indonesian adventure.

Yes, EastESIM offers a significantly smoother experience compared to purchasing a local SIM at Bali (DPS) or Jakarta (CGK) airports. Opting for a local SIM, whether Telkomsel or XL, often involves navigating crowded kiosks, enduring lengthy queues, and completing a mandatory IMEI and passport registration process. With EastESIM, you activate digitally before you even land, bypassing all these airport hassles. It's about starting your Indonesian journey instantly connected and stress-free.

For an unparalleled connectivity experience across Indonesia's diverse archipelago, EastESIM partners with the nation's premier Tier-1 networks, primarily Telkomsel and XL Axiata. Telkomsel is renowned for its expansive coverage, reaching even more remote islands, while XL Axiata provides excellent speeds in urban and tourist areas. This dual-network strategy ensures that whether you're exploring the bustling streets of Jakarta, relaxing on Bali, or island-hopping, you'll benefit from the most reliable and fastest available data speeds.

Absolutely! Your EastESIM provides high-speed, low-latency data that is perfectly suited for essential apps like Gojek and Grab, which are indispensable for navigating Indonesia. Whether you're hailing a ride from Ngurah Rai Airport, ordering delicious local food, or managing payments, our connection ensures a seamless experience. While local restrictions can sometimes affect WhatsApp video/voice calls, the EastESIM's robust data speed ensures any other data-intensive tasks run smoothly, keeping you connected efficiently.

Definitely. While Bali's charm is undeniable, its public and hotel Wi-Fi can often be inconsistent, slow, and prone to outages, especially during tropical storms or power fluctuations. For digital nomads in popular spots like Canggu or Ubud, or any traveler needing consistent connectivity, your EastESIM acts as a crucial lifeline. It provides a stable 4G connection, ensuring you're always connected for work, navigation, or staying in touch, offering far greater reliability than local Wi-Fi options.

Please note that our specific Indonesia EastESIM plan is valid exclusively within Indonesia. If your travel plans include neighboring countries like Singapore, Malaysia, or Thailand, your connection will cease at the border. For seamless multi-country adventures across Southeast Asia, we highly recommend exploring our dedicated Asia Regional eSIM options. These plans offer extensive coverage across multiple nations, ensuring you stay connected without interruption as you journey through the region's diverse landscapes.
