Upon arrival at major international airports like Noi Bai (Hanoi), Tan Son Nhat (Ho Chi Minh City), or Da Nang International Airport, you'll find dedicated counters of local network operators offering tourist SIM cards. This is the most convenient option for many travelers.
Throughout Vietnam, especially in major cities and tourist areas like Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, and Hoi An, you'll find numerous stores of the main network operators (Viettel, Vinaphone, Mobifone, and Vietnamobile). Visit these stores to choose from various data plans and purchase a SIM card.
Sometimes, small stores along the streets will say "SIM Card". They might only sell SIM card credit scratch off cards that give you codes to enter like so: *101*CODE#.
Many convenience stores, supermarkets, and mobile phone shops across the country also sell SIM cards. Keep an eye out for signs advertising SIM cards from different providers.
In tourist areas, you might come across street vendors selling SIM cards. While convenient, it's advisable to choose authorized sellers to avoid scams or unregistered SIMs.
Some network operators offer the option to purchase eSIMs online before your trip. This can be a convenient option, but remember that you'll need an eSIM-compatible device.
One such service that definitely works, and has competitive pricing compared to the local networks is Airalo. This kind of SIM has plans that give 4G and 5G but not necessarily local calling.
