Is coverage good enough for the MRT and TransJakarta?

Very good. Jakarta has some of Indonesia's strongest 4G and 5G, and the MRT tunnels are covered, so live-tracking your TransJakarta bus or MRT connection works throughout the central corridors.

Can I use the same eSIM if I fly on to Bali or Yogyakarta?

Yes - it's a national Indonesia plan, not a Jakarta-only one. The same eSIM keeps working when you fly to Bali, Yogyakarta or anywhere else in the country, so there's no need to buy again.

Good to know in Jakarta

Jakarta's traffic makes Gojek and Grab bike-taxis (ojek) a lifesaver - far faster than a car in gridlock. Keep data live to rebook drivers on the fly, and load the MRT Jakarta app for the cross-city line.

Two simple ways to buy

Jakarta eSIM plans: unlimited, or by the GB.

Every Jakarta eSIM from My Holiday SIM is one of two straightforward types. Pick whichever fits how you travel in Jakarta — you can always top up or switch on your next trip.

Traveller streaming and browsing freely on an unlimited-data travel eSIM

Unlimited plans

High-speed data, nothing to count

Priced per day — the longer you stay, the better the daily rate. Ideal for streaming, hotspot and longer trips where you'd rather not watch a data meter. A fair-use policy keeps speeds fast for everyone; see each plan for the detail.

Best for streaming, video calls & hotspot
Great for longer or open-ended trips
One price per day — no GB anxiety

By-the-GB plans

3GB10GB20GB

A set bundle, brilliant value

A fixed data allowance (say 3 GB or 10 GB) valid for your travel days. The best-value pick for lighter trips built around maps, messaging and a bit of browsing. Running low? Top up in a couple of taps — nothing to reinstall.

Plan your data

How much data do you need in Jakarta?

A rough, honest guide to sizing your Jakarta eSIM so you're not guessing. Most travellers in Jakarta are comfortable on 3–5 GB a week — heavy streamers just go Unlimited.

Jakarta eSIM: your local data guide.

Indonesia's sprawling capital moves on ride-hailing apps - Gojek and Grab motorbikes are the only sane way through Jakarta's gridlock. A Jakarta eSIM gets you a driver from Soekarno-Hatta, live MRT and TransJakarta routes, and QRIS payments at Kota Tua cafes without hunting for a SIM kiosk.

One eSIM for Jakarta and all of Indonesia. It's the national Indonesia eSIM — from $3.14/day with unlimited data, working the same in Jakarta as it does the moment you leave it.

Landing at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (CGK)?

Install the QR at home, then switch the eSIM on as you taxi in — you're online before you reach the arrivals hall.

On the ground

Where you'll lean on data in Jakarta.

Kota Tua (Old Batavia)

Maps and photo uploads around Fatahillah Square, plus Grab to escape once the colonial-quarter crowds build.

SCBD & Sudirman

Reliable 4G/5G for video calls, Gojek and lunch bookings in the skyscraper business district.

Menteng

Navigate leafy embassy streets and cafe-hop with maps and reviews in this upmarket central neighbourhood.

Glodok (Chinatown)

Translation apps and offline maps help thread the narrow market lanes while hunting for street food.

The practical bit

Getting around Jakarta on your eSIM.

Apps you'll want online in Jakarta

Gojek— Essential here: a GoRide motorbike weaves through Jakarta's gridlock faster than any car.
Grab— The main ride-hailing alternative for cars and bikes; compare fares before booking.
JakLingko— Plans and pays for MRT, LRT, TransJakarta and Mikrotrans on one integrated ticket.
Google Maps— Vital for live traffic in a famously jammed city; routes you by road or rail.

How long to stay in Jakarta

Jakarta is often a two- to three-day city break or a transit stop, enough for Kota Tua's old town, the National Monument, malls and nightlife.

How much data for Jakarta

Plan on a balanced 3-5 GB for near-constant ride-hailing, live-traffic maps and messaging across a sprawling city; choose Unlimited if you'll hotspot a laptop for work.

Coverage in Jakarta

5G and 4G are strong across the Sudirman-Thamrin business core, malls, the airport and even the MRT tunnels, though signal can dip in dense back-street kampungs and the far outer suburbs.

Peace of mind

Your Jakarta eSIM: data-only, zero bill shock.

Your Jakarta eSIM handles the internet while you travel. Your home number stays exactly where it is — no surprise roaming charges in Jakarta, no swapping your real SIM out.

Keep your number & WhatsApp

The eSIM is data-only and runs alongside your home SIM. Your number, iMessage and WhatsApp keep working exactly as they do at home.

No roaming bills, ever

Turn data roaming OFF on your home SIM and ON for the eSIM. You pay once, up front — no overage, no metered surprises, no bill waiting when you land home.

One thing worth knowing

Because it's data-only, the eSIM can't receive bank verification (OTP) text codes — those still go to your home number. Keep it reachable on Wi-Fi calling, or use app-based codes.
