Find clear answers about mainland China coverage, supported apps, mobile networks, data limits, hotspot sharing, registration, compatibility, delivery and activation.
Does this China eSIM cover mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau?
This destination eSIM is designed for use in mainland China. Hong Kong and Macau are not included and require a separate destination plan or a regional plan that explicitly lists them in its coverage.
What happens after I use my daily, total or Unlimited data allowance?
Standard Daily plans continue at up to 384Kbps after the daily high-speed allowance is used. Unlimited plans provide 1GB of high-speed data each day and then continue at up to 5Mbps until the next reset.
Daily and Unlimited plans do not support recharge; their high-speed allowance resets at midnight local China time. Total Data plans support recharge via your account or ICCID lookup after the included data is used, with validity counted in 24-hour blocks from activation.
Does this China eSIM include a Chinese phone number, calls or SMS?
No. This is a data-only travel eSIM and does not include a Chinese phone number, traditional voice calls or SMS. You can use supported internet-based calling and messaging services through mobile data.
You may keep your primary SIM active for calls, SMS and your existing WhatsApp number if your phone and home carrier support dual-SIM use. Check your primary SIM roaming settings before travelling to avoid unexpected charges.
Is real-name registration required for this China eSIM?
No additional real-name registration or identity document is currently required to purchase or install the plans shown on this page. Requirements can change, so review the selected plan details before checkout.
Is my phone compatible with this China eSIM?
Your phone must support eSIM and be unlocked from its mobile carrier. Compatibility can vary by model, country of purchase and carrier. Check the EziGo compatible-device guide before ordering.
What should I do if the eSIM does not connect?
Check that the eSIM is turned on, selected for mobile data and has Data Roaming enabled. The APN and mobile network are normally selected automatically. Restart the phone and follow the installation guide, but do not attempt to scan the QR code again.
If the connection still does not work, contact EziGo customer support with your order number, phone model and a screenshot of the eSIM settings.

Travel eSIM questions
Frequently Asked Questions About Travel eSIM
Find general guidance about choosing, receiving, installing and using a travel eSIM. Coverage, activation, network access and included features depend on the selected plan, destination and compatible device.
01 What is an eSIM and how does a travel eSIM work?
An eSIM is a digital SIM built into a compatible device. A travel eSIM lets you add a mobile data plan without replacing your usual physical SIM card.
After purchasing, you receive installation or activation details by email. Once the eSIM is installed and activated according to the supplied instructions, your device can connect to supported mobile networks within the plan's coverage area.
02 How do I choose the right eSIM data plan for my trip?
Check the coverage area, data allowance, validity period, activation policy, network information and included services shown on the product page before checkout.
A smaller allowance may suit maps, messaging, email and occasional browsing. Consider more data for regular navigation, social media, video calls, streaming, remote work or hotspot use where the selected plan supports it.
03 How do I know whether my phone supports eSIM?
Your phone must include eSIM functionality and normally needs to be carrier-unlocked. Compatibility can vary by model, country of purchase, mobile carrier and software version.
Check the device settings, manufacturer specifications or the EziGo compatible-device guide before purchasing. A carrier-locked device may not accept a travel eSIM from another provider.
04 How soon will I receive my eSIM after purchase?
The QR code or activation details are normally sent to the email address used at checkout after the order and payment have been completed.
If the email does not arrive, check the spam or junk folder and confirm that the email address entered during checkout is correct before contacting support.
05 When should I install and activate my eSIM?
Install the eSIM while you have a stable internet connection, preferably before departure. The correct activation time depends on the selected plan.
Some plans begin when they first connect to a supported network, while others may start after installation or manual activation. Always follow the activation instructions supplied with the order and do not delete the eSIM after installation.
06 Can I keep my phone number and use WhatsApp with an eSIM?
In most cases, you can keep your primary SIM active for your usual phone number while using the travel eSIM for mobile data, provided your device supports dual-SIM operation.
WhatsApp generally continues using the number already registered to the account. Review your device settings carefully because calls, messages or roaming on the primary SIM may create charges from your home carrier.
07 Does every travel eSIM support 5G, hotspot, calls and SMS?
No. These features depend on the selected plan, destination, available mobile network and compatible device. Some plans support 5G where local coverage is available, while others use 4G or LTE.
Hotspot or tethering may be available only on selected plans. Many travel eSIM products are data-only and do not include a local phone number, voice calls or SMS. Check the current product details before checkout.
08 What happens if I use all my data or accidentally delete the eSIM?
After the full data allowance is used, you may need to purchase another suitable plan unless the selected product explicitly supports a top-up or renewal.
Do not delete an installed eSIM unless instructed to do so. If it is deleted accidentally, contact EziGo support with the order number and device model. The support team can review whether the plan and provider allow the configuration to be restored or reissued.
09 What should I do if my eSIM is not working?
Confirm that the eSIM is enabled for mobile data, select the correct eSIM line and turn on Data Roaming if required by the plan. Restarting the device may help it register on the local network.
Check that you are inside the coverage area and follow any supplied APN or network selection instructions. If the problem continues, contact EziGo support while the issue can still be investigated during the trip.
Still have a question about your travel eSIM?
Send your order number, destination, device model and a short description of the issue so the support team can investigate more efficiently.
