Frequently asked questions

What is an eSIM and how does it work in South Korea?
An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital SIM that allows you to activate a cellular plan without needing a physical SIM card. In South Korea, eSIMs can be used with compatible devices to connect to local networks, enabling you to access mobile data and services.
How do I activate an eSIM in South Korea?
To activate an eSIM in South Korea, you typically need to scan a QR code provided by your eSIM provider or enter an activation code in your device's settings. Make sure your device is compatible with eSIM technology and that you have a stable internet connection during the activation process.
Can I use my eSIM from Japan in South Korea?
Yes, if your eSIM plan from Japan includes international roaming or if it is designed to work in South Korea. However, it's essential to check with your provider to ensure compatibility and coverage in South Korea.
What devices are compatible with eSIM in South Korea?
Most modern smartphones, such as the latest models from Apple, Samsung, and Google, support eSIM technology. Check your device specifications to confirm eSIM compatibility before traveling.
What should I do if I encounter issues with my eSIM in South Korea?
If you experience issues with your eSIM, try restarting your device, checking your network settings, or ensuring that your eSIM is properly activated. If problems persist, contact your eSIM provider's customer support for assistance.
Which option should I select at checkout when I am asked "Who will this device be used for?"
Select "For myself" only if you are installing the eSIM on your device. Otherwise, please select "For Someone Else" at checkout to avoid issues with eSIM installation.
