Indonesia eSIM

No! This is the single biggest advantage of our eSIM. The Indonesian government requires tourists using local SIM cards to register their phone's IMEI at the airport to avoid being blocked after 90 days. Cellesim eSIMs are roaming-based, which classifies you as a "tourist" and makes you 100% exempt from this entire bureaucratic process. You can buy online and connect instantly without any registration or fear of your phone being blocked. 

Yes, in all key tourist areas. This is the most important question. Our eSIM connects to premium networks that provide strong 4G/LTE coverage not just in Jakarta and Bali (Canggu, Ubud, Seminyak), but also in Lombok, the Gili Islands, and in the main towns/ports for Komodo (Labuan Bajo). Note: You will lose signal on a boat in the open ocean (e.g., on a Komodo boat trip) or in the deep jungle, but you will be connected in all the towns and main tourist spots.

Yes, 100%. Buying a physical "Telkomsel" or "XL" SIM at Bali (DPS) or Jakarta (CGK) airport requires you to find the kiosk, wait in very long queues, and go through the mandatory IMEI and passport registration process. Our eSIM is 100% digital, requires no ID or IMEI registration, and can be installed before you fly. You will be connected the moment you land, ready to use Gojek/Grab.

 To give you the best coverage in this vast archipelago, our eSIM connects to Indonesia’s premium Tier-1 networks, typically Telkomsel or XL Axiata. Telkomsel is widely regarded as the #1 provider with the most extensive coverage, ensuring you stay connected in Bali and on the remote islands where other networks fail.

Yes, absolutely. Gojek and Grab are the essential "super-apps" in Indonesia for everything (ride-hailing, food delivery, payments). Our eSIM provides high-speed, low-latency data, which is crucial for ordering a ride from the airport, tracking your driver in real-time, and making clear WhatsApp video calls. 

Yes. "Bali Wi-Fi" is famous for being unstable, slow, and dropping out during storms or power cuts. If you are a digital nomad in Canggu or Ubud, a Cellesim eSIM is your essential lifeline/backup, providing a stable 4G connection so you can keep working when your villa's Wi-Fi fails. 

 This specific plan is valid only within Indonesia. This is a critical point. If you are on a multi-country Southeast Asia trip, your connection will stop at the border. For this, we highly recommend our Asia Regional eSIM to stay connected seamlessly in all countries. 

 Scan it at home before your flight. This ensures you get immediate data the moment you land at Ngurah Rai (Bali) or Jakarta Airport without searching for free WiFi. 

 Connect to any hotel or cafe WiFi in Bali or Jakarta and contact our 24/7 support via WhatsApp or Email immediately.

How to verify eSIM support on your device

1. iPhone: Settings → Cellular → look for "Add eSIM" or "Add Cellular Plan". You can also dial *#06# , if you see an "EID" (32-digit number), your phone has eSIM hardware.
2. Android: Settings → Connections (or Network & Internet) → SIM Cards → look for "Download a SIM instead" or "Add eSIM".
3. EID check: most eSIM-capable Android phones show EID in Settings → About Phone → Status.

Tip: Even if your phone supports eSIM hardware, it must be unlocked (not carrier-locked) to use third-party eSIMs like Cellesim. Most phones bought outright are unlocked; phones from carrier instalment plans may require unlocking after the contract is paid off.
