Frequently Asked Questions
What is the cheapest eSIM for Bhutan?
The cheapest Bhutan eSIM on MobiMatter is a plan for Bhutan alone: $4.99 for 1 GB, valid for 7 days. Prices come live from 2 vetted providers and change often; the price on this page is the current one.
Is it worth getting an eSIM for Bhutan?
For most tourists and business travellers, yes, if your phone supports eSIM. Bhutan plans start at $4.99 for 1 GB, and you install the eSIM before you fly, so you have data when you land, without queuing for a tourist SIM at the airport. If your home plan already covers Bhutan at no extra cost, you may not need one.
Which networks do Bhutan eSIMs use?
Bhutan eSIMs on MobiMatter run on TashiCell and B-Mobile; 5G plans are available on B-Mobile. TashiCell carries the most plans. Each plan names its network, so you choose your carrier before you buy.
Which eSIM is best for Bhutan?
For Bhutan alone, our top plan right now is 5 GB for 30 days at $16.99 from RoamVault. We rank plans on quality and value for money; this is the highest-ranked plan that covers only Bhutan. If price per GB is all that matters, the lowest right now is $3.33 per GB, with 3 GB for 30 days.
How much data do I need for a week in Bhutan?
It depends on how you use your phone. Light use (maps, messaging, browsing) takes about 0.5–1 GB a day; scrolling a lot of social video can take 2–3 GB or more. Typical use per hour:
- Instagram Reels, TikTok: 0.3–1 GB
- YouTube, Netflix at standard quality: 0.5–1 GB
- Video calls (WhatsApp, FaceTime): 0.5–1 GB
- Voice calls (WhatsApp, FaceTime Audio): 50–70 MB
- Maps and navigation: 2–6 MB
- Messaging and browsing: 50–150 MB
The cheapest Bhutan plan with at least 5 GB for a week or longer is 5 GB for 30 days at $16.99.
Do Bhutan eSIMs support 5G and hotspot?
5G is available on 3 plans for Bhutan, where the local network has 5G coverage; the others use 4G/LTE. Hotspot (tethering) works on every plan, so you can share your data with other devices.
Does a Bhutan eSIM come with a phone number?
Most travel eSIMs, including most Bhutan plans, are data-only and have no local number. You keep your usual number on your main SIM for calls, texts and WhatsApp. Plans that include a number or minutes say so on the plan page.
Will my phone work with a Bhutan eSIM?
Yes, if it supports eSIM and is not locked to a carrier. To check, dial *#06#: if an EID number appears, your phone supports eSIM. Most iPhones from the XS/XR on, Galaxy S20 and later and Pixel 3 and later do, except most models sold in mainland China and some sold in Hong Kong and Macao.
Can I keep my own SIM and WhatsApp while using a Bhutan eSIM?
Yes. Your eSIM and your main SIM can be active at the same time. Use the eSIM for mobile data with data roaming on for that line, and turn data roaming off on your home SIM to avoid charges. WhatsApp keeps working on your usual number.

"Before every trip, my internet solution is definitely Mobimatter. It has never let me down. I once found myself without internet in the middle of a trip with another brand. Now, I don't take any chances; I stick to what I know."

Amazing service! I’ve used Mobimatter many times and I’m always impressed by how fast and helpful their support team is. They assisted me quickly whenever I had a question, and everything was resolved smoothly. The eSIMs are reliable, easy to install, and work exactly as expected. I keep coming back because the service is consistently excellent.

I had an issue with the eSIM setup and the MobiMatter support team offered prompt and straight forward assistance! This is the 2nd time they helped me out and both times they sorted the issue out fast! Highly recommend!

I’ve been travelling around SE Asia for the last 7 months, covering 6 different countries, and this app has been amazing throughout when needing to change eSIM. Very easy set-up when buying one and if you in fact are having some troubles, contacting the support team and talking through email takes no time at all. I was having some difficulty with an eSIM in Vietnam since my phone was not finding a signal no matter what I did - their support team helped me and guided me on different ways to fix it. Thank you!!

I loved it! I can have data wherever I go, they have many options, the data lasts a long time and is very affordable. I used the 3GB option for Europe and I've already had data for 15 days for €5. Honestly, if you manage it well and use it only when you don't have Wi-Fi, it can easily last you thirty days. I still have 1.6 GB left (half) and I have 10 days left on the plan. Highly recommended app for eSIM 💪
