Choose your package

Can I get an eSIM for Laos?

Yes. Lao People’s Democratic Republic is the official name of Laos, and Ahlano sells prepaid travel data plans for it. You buy online in a few minutes, install the eSIM on your phone and have data when you arrive. There is no shop to find and no physical card to swap.

Before you buy, make sure you have an eSIM-compatible phone that is unlocked. You can check your model on our list of phones that support eSIM.

Which Laos eSIM plan suits your trip?

The page shows 18 plans for Lao People’s Democratic Republic, from USD 1.66. Each one has a data amount and a validity, from 1 to 30 days. A few simple questions help you choose:

• How long are you staying? Pick a validity that covers your whole trip, so the plan does not run out before you fly home.
• How do you use your phone? Maps, messages and booking apps need little data. Video calls, uploads and streaming need much more.
• Do you want to stop counting? An unlimited plan is on sale for Laos if you prefer not to watch your usage.

For a long stay with light use, a plan such as this longer-validity plan can be a calm choice. Larger plans go up to 20 GB.

How to use and activate your eSIM in Laos

1. Choose your plan and pay by card or Apple Pay.
2. Install the eSIM with the QR code or the one-tap install link. Doing this before you leave, while you are on Wi-Fi, keeps things simple.
3. On arrival, switch your data line to the Ahlano eSIM and turn on data roaming for it.
4. Check the data left in your account and top up if your trip runs longer than planned.

If anything is unclear, our questions and answers page covers installation on iPhone and Android.

What is the downside of an eSIM?

The main limit is your phone. An eSIM only works on an eSIM-compatible phone that is unlocked, so older or locked models cannot use it. You also install it once on one device, so keep the QR code safe until setup is finished. For most travellers with a recent iPhone or Android phone, the trade is worth it: no card to carry, no queue on arrival and data ready when you land.
