Internet & SIM Card
Ethical Trekking in Bukit Lawang
To stay connected with mobile internet during your trip to Indonesia, here are your options simplified:
Register Your Phone Upon Arrival
When you land in Indonesia, go to the customs office at the airport with your phone’s IMEI number and a QR code obtained online. This registration is mandatory if you plan to use an Indonesian SIM card. If your phone’s value exceeds $500 USD, you may need to pay additional fees.
Get a Tourist SIM Card
Visit a Telkomsel store, like the one in Medan (Sumatra), to get a tourist SIM card. This allows you to use your phone for up to 3 months at a time.
Buy a SIM Card or eSIM in Advance
Purchase a SIM card or eSIM from providers such as Holafly before your trip. This lets you connect to local networks right away upon arrival.
Use a Mobile LTE Router
Insert a local Indonesian SIM card into a mobile LTE router and connect your devices. Make sure the SIM card doesn’t have password protection.
Use a Local Smartphone as a Hotspot
Buy an inexpensive smartphone in Indonesia and use it as a hotspot to connect your other devices.
These options ensure you have reliable mobile internet during your stay in Indonesia, catering to different needs and preferences for connectivity.
