Is there 5G in Cambodia?
Mobile internet in Cambodia runs mostly on 4G/LTE; 5G is limited or not yet available. 4G is fast enough for maps, video calls and streaming. Your eSIM uses 4G/LTE, and 5G where the partner network allows it.
Do WhatsApp and FaceTime calls work in Cambodia?
Yes. Voice and video calls on WhatsApp, FaceTime, Telegram and similar apps work normally over the eSIM data in Cambodia.
Do I need to register a SIM or show my passport in Cambodia?
No. Your eSIM is bought online and needs no passport check or registration in Cambodia. A local SIM card, by contrast, requires your passport at a shop.
Will my eSIM work as soon as I land at Phnom Penh Techo (KTI)?
Yes. Install the eSIM at home, switch it on when you land at Phnom Penh Techo (KTI) and Siem Reap-Angkor (SAI), and it connects to a local network within a minute or two. You can order a ride or message your hotel before you leave the airport.
Where does the eSIM work in Cambodia?
Coverage is strong in Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, and Sihanoukville and along main roads. Signal can be weak or absent in remote areas such as Cardamom Mountains: download offline maps before you go.
Which apps are useful for travelling in Cambodia?
Travellers in Cambodia commonly use Grab, PassApp, and Telegram. They all work over the eSIM data. Sign up and receive any SMS verification codes before you travel, as the eSIM has no phone number.
Can I use the same eSIM in Cambodia and nearby countries?
Yes. Regional plans (Asia Pacific, Global Package, and Asia) cover Cambodia and other countries on one eSIM, so you do not need a new one at each border.
Which mobile networks does the eSIM use in Cambodia?
The eSIM connects to Metfone Cambodia and switches to the best available network automatically.
How much data do I need for a week in Cambodia?
For maps, messaging and social media, 1 to 3 GB per week is usually enough. If you make video calls, stream or work online, choose 5 GB or more, or an unlimited plan.
Can I buy my Cambodia eSIM before I travel?
Yes, and it is the best option: install it at home over Wi-Fi. The plan only starts when your phone first connects to a network in Cambodia.
Will WhatsApp still work with my usual number?
Yes. WhatsApp stays linked to your number. Keep your regular SIM on for calls and SMS if you want, and use the eSIM for data.
