Frequently Asked Questions

Most recent smartphones support eSIM, but you should always check: On iPhone, go to Settings → General → About and look for an EID number. If you see EID, your iPhone supports eSIM. On Android, go to Settings → About phone and look for eSIM, SIM manager or an EID field. Your phone must also be network unlocked to use an international eSIM. If you are not sure, you can share your phone model with Gohub support and we can help you confirm compatibility.
The most comfortable option is: Purchase your Taiwan eSIM a few days before departure while you have stable Wi Fi. Install the eSIM profile on your phone before you fly, but keep the eSIM line switched off. Activate mobile data after landing in Taiwan so your validity starts at the right time. This way you arrive ready to connect without searching for a SIM counter at the airport.
No. A travel eSIM profile is designed for one device only: Once an eSIM is activated on a phone, it cannot be moved or reused on another device. If you change phones or want to use data on a second device, you will need a new eSIM or share connection through hotspot from the main device. For couples, families and small groups, each person should have their own eSIM or connect via hotspot.
Yes. Taiwan eSIM plans can be subject to local regulations and KYC rules. For some plans you may need to: Provide basic personal details that match your passport. Upload a photo or scan of your passport and sometimes a selfie for verification. All KYC requirements are shown clearly on the Taiwan product page and during checkout. Verification is done online and usually only needs to be completed once per eSIM order. Your eSIM can be activated only after the required KYC steps are approved.
In Taiwan, 4G or LTE is the main network that most travelers use and it is widely available in cities. 5G is available in some areas, but: 5G access depends on your device model, supported bands and exact location. Your Gohub Taiwan eSIM can use 4G or 5G where available, and your phone will automatically pick the best signal it can find. If you want to use 5G, check that your phone supports Taiwan 5G bands and be aware that it may still fall back to 4G in many places
Coverage is strong in: Major cities such as Taipei, Taichung, Tainan and Kaohsiung. Main highways, train routes and busy town centers. In more remote locations: Signal quality can drop in mountain regions, remote villages or some coastal stretches. It is a good idea to download offline maps in advance if you plan to hike or drive through rural areas
It depends on your usage, but these ranges work for most travelers: Light use (messages, maps, basic browsing): about 1 GB every 3 days. Normal use (social media, maps, search, some video): around 1 to 2 GB per day. Heavy use (HD video, frequent uploads, constant social media): 3 GB or more per day. Rough guide: 3 to 5 day trip Light user: 2 to 3 GB Normal user: 5 to 8 GB 7 to 10 day trip Light user: 3 to 5 GB Normal user: 7 to 15 GB If you are unsure, choose a plan with a little more data so you have a safety margin.
Yes, hotspot is supported on most Taiwan eSIM plans, as long as: Your phone supports tethering or personal hotspot, and You stay within the data and fair usage limits of your plan. This is very useful if you want to connect a laptop or share data with a companion, but keep in mind that hotspot can use data faster than normal phone use.
A standard Taiwan data only eSIM: Does not include traditional voice calls or SMS. You can still call and message using apps such as WhatsApp, Line, Messenger, FaceTime, Telegram or Zoom over data. It usually does not support SMS verification for banking, government or some app logins, so you should keep your home SIM active if you need those codes. Some plans may include voice or SMS. Always check the plan details before purchase.
Your Taiwan eSIM can work on: High Speed Rail (HSR) routes between major cities. Intercity trains and buses along main transport corridors. Short drops in signal can still happen in tunnels, deep cuttings or remote stretches, especially in mountain areas. Most of the time the connection returns quickly once you are back in open areas.
If your Taiwan eSIM does not connect after landing, try these steps: Turn on data roaming for the eSIM line in your phone settings. Set the Taiwan eSIM as your primary data line in mobile data settings. Restart your phone and wait a few minutes while it searches for the local network. Check that APN and network selection are set to automatic. If you changed any settings manually, reset them to default and try again. If it still does not connect, contact Gohub 24/7 human support via app, email or chat. Share screenshots of your SIM and network settings so the team can guide you step by step.
