eSIM for Vietnam — 30-day plans 🇻🇳
For travellers visiting Vietnam, a 30-day eSIM covers most short-term stays — from a two-week holiday to a month-long business trip. Validity begins when you connect to a local network after scanning the QR code, not at purchase. If your trip extends beyond 30 days, you can buy and activate a new eSIM while still in Vietnam; just scan a fresh QR code on the same device.

FAQ
What type of trip is a 30-day Vietnam eSIM best suited for?
It fits both tourism and business stays up to a month, and can also cover a long transit if you are connecting through Vietnam for several days. For a visit shorter than a week, consider a 7-day plan instead.
When does the 30-day validity actually start?
The clock starts ticking the moment your device connects to a Vietnamese mobile network after you scan the QR code and install the eSIM. It does not start at purchase or delivery.
What if my trip runs longer than 30 days?
No problem — buy a new 30-day eSIM from KodShop. You can activate it while still in Vietnam by scanning the second QR code. The new validity starts from that second activation, so you get a fresh 30-day window.
Can I install the eSIM before arriving in Vietnam?
Yes, you can install the eSIM profile at any time, but do not scan the activation QR code until you are ready to connect in Vietnam. Installing early just saves steps — the validity won't start until you connect to a local network.
Do I need to remove the eSIM after my trip?
Not required — you can keep the profile on your device for future trips. However, to avoid accidental data charges, disable the eSIM line in your phone's settings when you leave Vietnam. Delete the profile only if you are sure you won't reuse it.
