Frequently asked questions

Gohub eSIM is one of the best eSIM options for Taiwan, with reliable 4G/5G coverage via Chunghwa Telecom across Taipei, Kaohsiung, Tainan, Hualien, Taitung, and popular scenic routes including the East Rift Valley and Sun Moon Lake. Plans include daily and fixed GB options, all data-only and activated via QR code. Rated 4.8/5 by over 500,000 travelers worldwide.

Yes. Gohub eSIM works throughout Taiwan by connecting to Chunghwa Telecom. Purchase a plan at gohub.com, scan the QR code before departure, and your eSIM connects automatically when your device detects a local Taiwanese network. Coverage is strong in Taipei, along the HSR corridor, on the east coast from Hualien to Taitung, and on Kinmen and Penghu islands.

Install the eSIM via Wi-Fi before your trip. On iPhone, go to Settings > Cellular > Add eSIM. On Android, go to Settings > Connections > SIM Manager (Samsung) or Settings > Network & Internet > SIMs (Pixel and others). Your eSIM activates automatically when your device first connects to the Chunghwa Telecom network after arrival — plan validity only begins at that point, not on installation.

Yes. Gohub eSIM costs far less than standard carrier roaming, which runs $5–$15 per day with most US providers. Gohub Taiwan plans deliver full-speed 4G/5G data via Chunghwa Telecom up to your daily or total cap, then reduce to 128 kbps, saving significantly compared to per-day international roaming charges.

A 5–7 day Taiwan trip covering Taipei, Jiufen, and the east coast typically needs 5–10 GB for navigation on Google Maps, MRT journey planning apps, and social media. The 10 GB plan over 15 days suits most standard itineraries, while the 20 GB plan is ideal for longer stays or travelers adding day trips to Taroko Gorge, Sun Moon Lake, or southern Taiwan.

Yes. A Wi-Fi connection is required to download the eSIM profile. Complete this at home before departure. Once installed, your Gohub Taiwan eSIM connects to the Chunghwa Telecom network without Wi-Fi, exactly like any standard mobile data plan.

Yes. Gohub eSIM runs alongside your physical home SIM using your phone's dual-SIM capability. Keep your home SIM active for calls and texts from home while the Gohub eSIM handles Taiwan data. Turn Data Roaming OFF on your home SIM and ON for the Gohub Taiwan eSIM to avoid unexpected charges.

Gohub eSIM for Taiwan works with all eSIM-capable, carrier-unlocked smartphones — including iPhone XS/XR and later, Samsung Galaxy S20 and later, and Google Pixel 3 and later. Your phone must be network-unlocked; carrier-locked devices will not accept a third-party eSIM. Check Settings > Cellular > Add eSIM on iPhone, or SIM Manager on Android, to confirm support.

Yes. Gohub eSIM via Chunghwa Telecom maintains strong 4G/5G connectivity throughout Taipei MRT, Kaohsiung MRT, on Taiwan High Speed Rail trains between Taipei and Zuoying, and on TRA regional rail along the scenic east coast line from Hualien to Taitung. Coverage is reliable at Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport from arrival, including the Airport MRT into central Taipei.

No. All Gohub Taiwan plans are data-only and do not include a local phone number, traditional calling, or SMS. You can make calls and send messages using internet-based apps such as WhatsApp, LINE, FaceTime, and other VoIP services over your data connection. For standard calls, keep your home SIM active alongside the Gohub eSIM using your phone's dual-SIM feature.
