Do I need to show ID to activate my eSIM in Tonga?

No, our eSIMs typically activate online without requiring ID. However, always be aware of any specific local regulations that might apply.

Will my eSIM work in Tonga's outer islands?

Coverage is best in Nuku'alofa and other main towns. Service in more remote outer islands can be limited. Check network coverage maps for specific areas.

Can I keep my WhatsApp number while using an eSIM for data in Tonga?

Yes! Your WhatsApp, Telegram, and other messaging apps will continue to work with your existing number, as they are tied to your account, not your SIM card for data.

Can I buy multiple eSIMs if I'm visiting other Pacific islands too?

Absolutely. Many travelers purchase specific eSIMs for each country on their itinerary to get the best local rates and coverage.
