FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

In most cases, you can top up your existing plan or buy a new one directly online, without having to look for a local store. In China, this is easier to do while you still have some connection, for example in Shanghai, Beijing, or using your hotel's Wi-Fi. If you're already in a more remote area or on a long journey, it's best to plan ahead, as topping up can be less smooth with a weak connection, and jet lag can delay support.
The right data allowance depends mainly on your usage of maps, translation, messaging, and booking services during your trip. In China, people often use apps like WeChat, Didi, Alipay, or translation services daily, which quickly increases your data usage if you're moving around a lot. For a typical trip, a mid-range plan is generally more comfortable than a small data allowance.
Getting your eSIM before you leave is the safest option. In China, buying it locally can be less convenient depending on the language, local procedures, and the fact that you need an internet connection to compare offers, receive the QR code, or complete the setup. With an advance purchase, you're ready to go as soon as you land in Beijing, Shanghai, or Guangzhou.
For China, roaming with French operators is rarely the most economical option for longer stays. Since the country is not in the EU, out-of-plan charges or travel passes can quickly add up, especially if you use maps, translation services, and messaging every day. An eSIM is often more user-friendly and advantageous for short to medium-length stays.
Tethering generally works if your mobile plan allows it and your phone supports it. In China, it's very useful for connecting a laptop on a train, in a café, or in accommodations where the Wi-Fi is slow or requires a local setup process. Just keep an eye on your data usage, as a computer consumes data much faster than a smartphone.
Not automatically, as coverage depends on the plan you purchase. If your itinerary combines mainland China with Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Japan, or South Korea, it's best to check from the outset whether your eSIM includes these destinations or choose a regional Asia plan. This is often the simplest solution to avoid having to switch eSIMs mid-trip.
