Skip the arrivals counter
Buying a local SIM at arrivals usually means a passport, a form and a queue, in a language you may not read. An eSIM is already on the phone when the wheels touch down.


Hong Kong runs on transit apps and messages, and the ride into Kowloon is the first of them. The plan is on before the train moves.

Choose a plan, scan the QR code that lands in your email, and switch the line on when you arrive. Install it on wi-fi before you travel - data only starts counting once you connect at the destination.

A long weekend and a month in Hong Kong need very different plans, so you choose the data and the days. Around 3GB covers a week of maps, messaging and a daily scroll; 10GB carries a fortnight with video calls home.
The QR code arrives by email seconds after payment. Scan it on wi-fi before you leave, and the Hong Kong line comes alive on its own once you land and switch it on.
Stuck on the install, or the line will not attach after landing? Message us and a person replies, whatever the hour is where you are.
Phones from the iPhone XS onward, and most Android flagships since 2019, carry an eSIM slot alongside the usual tray. Adding a travel plan writes it to that slot, and your everyday SIM stays where it is.
Scanning the code from your email writes the plan onto that handset. It installs once and stays there, so scan it on the phone you are actually travelling with.

Any recent iPhone (XS or newer) or Android flagship with eSIM support and no carrier lock works with this Hong Kong plan. Confirm by checking your phone's settings for "Add eSIM".
Just once, to scan the QR code and install the profile over Wi-Fi. The data itself only starts running once you land and connect in Hong Kong.
No. It's a data-only add-on, so your home SIM keeps handling calls and texts from the other slot while this eSIM manages data in Hong Kong.
Yes, top up from the Olysim app or website in a couple of taps - no need to buy an entirely new Hong Kong plan.
