Buy an eSIM
How it works

Checkout to connected, in four steps.

No store, no plastic, no account. Check your phone once — the rest is a few taps.

Before anything: 60 seconds on your phone.No website can check this for you — including ours.
Has eSIM?

Dial *#06# — an EID number means yes.

Unlocked?

Only your original carrier can confirm and unlock it.

Note: some regional models — most often iPhones bought in mainland China — ship without eSIM. Unsure? Ask us first

Choose the destination and days.

Every card shows the same facts. Not on the card = not in the plan.

Data

Total or daily, hotspot rules — and what "unlimited" does after its fair-use cap.

Number

Available on selected plans; check the number country.

Calls & SMS

In / out shown separately, never a vague “voice”.

When it starts

Install, first connection, or delivery email.

Pay once, get an email.

The QR code arrives by email within five minutes. No app, no shipping.

Treat the QR code like a boarding pass.
  • One scan, one phone — it can't be reinstalled elsewhere
  • Keep it private; don't post or forward it
  • Starts-on-delivery plans: order close to your dates

Install it — two minutes on Wi-Fi.

Install ≠ activate — the plan starts on its own trigger. Pick your phone:

  1. Open Settings → Cellular (or Mobile Service).
  2. Tap “Add eSIM” → “Use QR Code” and scan the code from our email.
  3. Label the new line “Taro Travel”.
  4. Keep your primary line settings unchanged.
  5. Turn the travel line on when your plan’s timing allows.
  1. Open Settings → Network & internet (or Connections) → SIMs.
  2. Choose “Add eSIM” / “Download a SIM instead?” and scan our QR code.
  3. Label the new eSIM “Taro Travel”.
  4. Menu names vary by brand — search “eSIM” in Settings if unsure.
  5. Select it for mobile data when you’re ready to use it.

Never delete the eSIM while troubleshooting — most profiles can't be downloaded twice.

Land, switch it on, get called.

Data connects on landing. Give the local number to the hotel, the driver, the form.

Select the travel line for data

Keep your personal SIM active for verification codes.

Roaming: follow the plan note

Some plans need data roaming on; the card says so.

Calls ring the travel number

Check which line is selected before dialling out.

It expires with the plan

Nothing to cancel — the number simply stops.

Not connecting?Five fixes solve almost every case.
  1. 1. Confirm you're inside the covered area.
  2. 2. Travel line on & selected for mobile data.
  3. 3. Re-check roaming, APN and network notes.
  4. 4. Airplane mode on-off, or restart once.
  5. 5. Still stuck? Email us your destination + phone model. Email us
Can I install before departure?

Yes — installing does not always start the plan. Check the card: some plans start on install, others on first connection or when we email the eSIM.

Should data roaming be on?

Follow the plan’s own note. Many travel eSIMs need roaming on for the travel line, while your personal line’s roaming should usually stay off.

Can I keep my personal SIM active?

Yes, on dual-SIM phones. Keep it for verification codes, and watch its roaming settings to avoid home-carrier charges.

Can I move the eSIM to another phone?

No — the QR code is for a single installation. Install it on the phone you are actually taking.

Should I delete it after the trip?

You can remove an expired profile, but never delete it while troubleshooting — most profiles can’t be downloaded twice.

Phone checked? You're two minutes from done.
