Laos eSIMLaos eSIM — Vientiane, Luang Prabang and Vang Vieng
A BellRoam Laos eSIM gives you mobile data across Laos without buying a SIM on arrival. Receive the QR code by email, install it before you fly and switch it on when you land in Vientiane or Luang Prabang.
Network and coverage
| Network | Lao Telecom |
| Strong coverage | Vientiane, Luang Prabang, Vang Vieng, Pakse and along the Laos–China railway towns |
| Weaker spots | Northern mountains, the Mekong slow boat route and remote villages |
The network shown on each plan is the one your eSIM connects to.
Which plan should I choose?
- Luang Prabang trip (3–5 days): maps, messaging, ride-hailing and social media fit in a small total-data plan.
- Two weeks overland: choose a mid-size plan if you navigate all day, upload photos or share a hotspot.
- Remote work or lots of video: pick the largest plan and use Wi-Fi for big downloads.
