Laos Daily eSIM — Never Run Out of Data
Daily-renewing data plan for your Laos trip: choose 500MB–10GB high-speed data per day and the exact number of days you need (1–30 days). Once your daily high-speed allowance is exhausted, speeds are reduced — maps and messaging still work, unlike fixed-data plans where connectivity drops entirely.

- Lowest cost per GB: 10GB/day, about 41,377 ₫ per GB of high-speed data.
- Speed after the daily cap depends on the plan: 512 Kbps on 500MB, 1GB, 2GB, 3GB, but only 384 Kbps on 5GB, 10GB. A bigger plan doesn’t mean faster speeds once the cap is reached.

Using mobile data in Laos: local tips
- 5G is a bonus. Lao Telecom launched the country’s first 5G in Vientiane in 2024 and has been expanding it, but plan on 4G in most places.
- Wide but basic coverage. The government says mobile signal reaches about 97% of villages, but most connections are 3G/4G — expect slower data in remote mountain areas.
- Patchy on the Laos–China Railway. Signal along the railway between Vientiane and Luang Prabang is still patchy, especially in tunnels, while a 4G upgrade rolls out. Download tickets and maps before boarding.
- Pay LAO QR from some home apps. Visitors using participating Thai banking apps, Cambodian KHQR apps or China’s UnionPay app can scan LAO QR merchant codes — check with your own bank first.
Checked against official sources in September 2026. Services and coverage change — check the app or operator before you travel.
FAQ
Depends on your chosen plan: 500MB/day → 512 Kbps; 1GB/day → 512 Kbps; 2GB/day → 512 Kbps; 3GB/day → 512 Kbps; 5GB/day → 384 Kbps; 10GB/day → 384 Kbps. After that, you stay connected until your daily high-speed allowance resets.
eSIM plans for Laos connect via Lao Telecom. Your device automatically selects the strongest local network; 5G is available where supported by the carrier, otherwise 4G/LTE applies. The specific carrier for each plan is listed on its detail page.
Daily plans provide a fixed amount of high-speed data refreshed each day (e.g., 1 GB/day). Once the daily high-speed limit is reached, speeds are reduced but connectivity remains — the full high-speed allowance resets the next day. Fixed-data plans end completely once exhausted; additional data must be purchased.
Essentially similar to "unlimited" plans on the market: you always stay connected, but speeds are reduced after exceeding your daily high-speed data allowance. We clearly state the reduced speed for each plan so you can choose the right one—no vague marketing.
Select the exact number of days for your trip — from 1 to 30 days. Pricing is per day: travel for 5 days, pay for 5 days — no need to overbuy a 30-day package.
1 GB/day is enough for maps, messaging, and social media. 2–3 GB/day if you frequently watch videos or make video calls. 5–10 GB/day for livestreaming or sharing a hotspot with your group.
For most plans, validity starts from the first time your eSIM connects to a network at your destination—you can safely install it at home before flying. Exact details for each plan are clearly stated on its product page.
