Travel eSIM: Lombok and the rest of Indonesia. Unlimited data from $4.00 a day

Yes — definitely. While this page is for Lombok, the eSIM provides data coverage across the whole of Indonesia, not just Lombok. It's the same nationwide Indonesia plan, so you'll stay connected wherever your trip takes you across the country — Lombok is simply one of the many destinations where your eSIM will work.

An Indonesia eSIM is a digital SIM that allows you to activate a high-speed data plan without a physical chip. For Kiwi travelers heading to Indonesia, this means you can bypass expensive roaming daily rates. It works by downloading a network profile to your phone, giving you instant access to local data while keeping your NZ SIM active for calls and texts.

Your Indonesia eSIM is designed to keep you connected to the strongest available signals. We partner with top-tier providers including 3, Fren/Hepi, and more to ensure premium 5G and 4G/LTE coverage. If you are traveling across a region, your eSIM will automatically switch between these local partners as you cross borders, ensuring uninterrupted service.

All Indonesia eSIM plans are data-only, which is the most cost-effective way for Kiwis to travel. You won't receive a new local phone number, but you can keep using WhatsApp, FaceTime, and Viber with your existing NZ number for calls and messages over data.

Yes. If you still want to receive calls and texts on your NZ SIM while abroad, simply keep it in your phone alongside the Indonesia eSIM. Some providers do charge a daily roaming fee for this, so we recommend checking with your NZ carrier before you go.

We recommend installing your Indonesia eSIM the day before you fly or while waiting at the airport in New Zealand. Most plans only begin their "validity period" (e.g., 15 or 30 days) once you actually connect to a network in Indonesia. Installing early ensures you have data the moment your plane wheels touch the tarmac.

For your Indonesia eSIM to access local networks like 3, Fren/Hepi, and more, you must toggle "Data Roaming" to ON for the eSIM line in your settings. This is especially important for regional plans (like Europe or Asia) as it allows the eSIM to jump between different countries. Just remember to keep roaming OFF for your NZ SIM to avoid extra charges!

Yes, all our Indonesia eSIM options support personal hotspots and data sharing. This is perfect for Kiwi families or groups traveling together through Indonesia who want to share a single data pool. You can easily tether your laptop, tablet, or another phone as long as your device supports it.

Absolutely. Modern iPhones and Androids can store multiple eSIM profiles. You might have one for Australia and another Indonesia eSIM for the next leg of your trip. You can simply toggle them on and off in your "Cellular" or "Sim Manager" settings as you move from one destination to the next.

If your eSIM supports it, you can top up directly from the 'Your Order' page on our site — the new data is added to your existing eSIM profile, so there's nothing to re-install. If your plan doesn't support top-ups, you can simply purchase a new Indonesia eSIM and it'll pick up right where the old one left off.

Yes — most of our Indonesia eSIMs support topping up. When you're running low, head to the 'Your Order' page and click "Top up with more data" to choose an additional data pack or extend your daily plan. Top-ups are charged separately via Stripe and are added to your existing eSIM in seconds, so you can keep using the same profile without re-installing anything.
