Indonesia eSIM by city
Indonesia coverage, place by place
| Bali | A guide rates south Bali excellent across operators, but says some carriers struggle at rice terraces, dive sites and nearby islands. |
|---|---|
| Lombok | A guide says towns are well served but reception turns patchy elsewhere and above the treeline on Rinjani; download maps first. |
| Yogyakarta | A guide reports good to excellent 4G around Yogyakarta, Borobudur and Prambanan, with limited 5G. |
| Komodo | A dive operator says Labuan Bajo has reliable 4G, but dive sites and liveaboards often have none; send messages before leaving harbor. |
| Jakarta | A guide rates Jakarta excellent on all three major carriers, with fast 4G, though dense areas may get congested. |

Which network works well in Indonesia?
Opensignal's July 2026 report scored Telkomsel highest for coverage (8.6 of 10), Indosat highest for time connected, and XL highest for 5G availability. For islands beyond Java and Bali, coverage is the metric to weigh.
Why are some plans marked Not via Hong Kong?
Plans marked "Not via Hong Kong" use a non-Hong Kong internet route. Most others go through Hong Kong, so some apps and sites may think you are there.
Why does my eSIM show another carrier’s name?
Many travel eSIMs are issued by one carrier and roam on local networks, so your phone can show the issuing carrier’s name while your data runs on a local network. Keep data roaming on for the eSIM.
Will it work on my phone?
Dial *#06# on the phone you’re taking. If you see an EID number, it takes an eSIM. Every iPhone from the XR and XS on does, and the SE from 2020, as do Google Pixel 3 and later and Samsung Galaxy S20 and later. The phone must be carrier-unlocked. Not sure? Text PHONE and your model and we’ll check.
When do I install it?
At home, on wifi, before you fly. Then switch it on when you land. Tell us your landing day and we text you the switch-on steps that morning.
Does it come with a phone number?
No. It’s a data-only eSIM. WhatsApp, LINE, iMessage and FaceTime all work over it, and your home number can stay on for calls and codes.
What if it doesn’t work?
If we can’t issue your eSIM, we refund you in full. If it won’t install or connect, text us and we help you get connected.
