Coverage and networks
China eSIM plans connect through the supported partner networks stated in the selected package. Coverage is generally strongest in major cities and populated transport corridors, but it can vary in mountain regions, rural areas, underground spaces and remote destinations.
Activation
Install the eSIM before departure while reliable Wi-Fi is available, then follow the activation rule shown on the selected plan. Validity may begin at installation or at the first supported network connection, so review the package details before scanning the QR code.
Device compatibility
Your phone must support eSIM and be unlocked for use with another carrier. Check for an Add eSIM option or an EID in the device settings, and confirm the exact model and country variant before purchase.
Hotspot and tethering
All DALO eSIM plans support personal hotspot and tethering. Share your mobile data with a laptop, tablet or another device. Hotspot usage counts toward your plan data allowance.

China eSIM FAQ
When should I install my China eSIM?
Install it before departure while reliable Wi-Fi is available, but follow the selected plan's activation instructions so the validity period does not begin earlier than intended.
Will all apps work normally with a China eSIM?
Internet access and app availability can depend on local rules, network routing and the selected provider. Check current requirements for essential services before traveling.
How much data should I choose for China?
Maps, translation and messages use relatively little data, while video, social media, hotspot use and remote work require a larger allowance. Match the plan to your trip length and normal habits.
Can I keep my normal SIM while using a China eSIM?
Most compatible dual-SIM phones allow both lines to remain installed. Use the travel eSIM for data and review roaming settings on the regular line to avoid unintended charges.
