Will my eSIM work as soon as I land in Singapore?

Yes — install it at home on Wi-Fi before you fly, then switch the line on when you land. It joins a partner network in Singapore automatically, usually before you reach baggage claim. Your days only start counting at that first connection.

Do I keep my own number and WhatsApp in Singapore?

Yes. This is a data-only eSIM that runs alongside your home SIM. Your number stays active for calls and texts, and WhatsApp keeps working on your usual number the whole trip.

When do my days start counting?

Only when the eSIM first connects to a network in Singapore — not when you buy or install it. Buying ahead of your trip is completely safe.

Which phones work with a Singapore eSIM?

Most phones from 2018 onward: iPhone XS and newer, Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer, Google Pixel 3 and newer, plus many recent Xiaomi, Oppo and Motorola models. Your phone must also be carrier-unlocked — check yours in 30 seconds on our compatibility page.

Can I hotspot my laptop or tablet in Singapore?

Yes — tethering is included wherever the local partner network allows it, at no extra cost. Handy for sharing data with kids' tablets or getting a laptop online.

How much does a Singapore eSIM cost?

Unlimited data from $1.75 per day — the longer the trip, the lower the day rate. A one-week plan starts from $4.02 in total, always shown in full before you pay. No roaming charges can ever appear afterwards.

What if I change my plans?

If the eSIM hasn't been installed and the plan hasn't started, we refund in full within 30 days of purchase — no questions asked.

Good to know

Singapore requires passport registration to buy a physical prepaid SIM at a counter — an eSIM activates before you land, so you skip the queue at Changi and step off already connected.

Unlimited, honestly.

Unlimited plans run at full speed up to a daily fair-use allowance, then at reduced speed until the allowance resets the next day — you're never cut off. Every plan is prepaid: the checkout total is the whole bill, and we never add overage charges.

Hotspot support varies by plan and destination — where it's available for your plan in Singapore, it's shown in the plan details before you pay.

Two simple ways to buy

Singapore eSIM plans: unlimited, or by the GB.

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

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.

How much data do you need in Singapore?

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

The Singapore eSIM guide.

Singapore packs a lot into a small island, and a data connection is what keeps the day moving: booking Grab rides, tapping into MRT maps, hunting down the best stall at a hawker centre and sharing Gardens by the Bay photos home. Even a short Changi stopover runs smoother when you land already online.

How it works on the day

Scan the QR code at home to install, then flip the eSIM on as you taxi in at Changi (SIN). It latches onto a major Singapore network — Singtel, StarHub or M1 — automatically, while your usual number stays live for calls and WhatsApp.

Choosing your days

Three or four days covers the classic Marina Bay, Sentosa and hawker-centre loop, and it's the go-to for layover travellers breaking a long-haul at Changi. Stretch to a week for two-centre trips pairing Singapore with Malaysia or Bali, where the day rate drops.

Peace of mind

Your Singapore eSIM: data-only, no overage fees.

Your Singapore eSIM handles the internet while you travel. Your home number stays exactly where it is — no surprise roaming charges in Singapore, 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.

Prepaid — no overage charges from us

Turn data roaming OFF on your home SIM and ON for the eSIM. You pay once, up front — we never add data-overage charges on top.

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.
