Bali eSIM for UK travellers

What roaming from the UK actually costs

Depending on your network, Indonesia roaming means either a daily pass (commonly around £5–8 per day for a capped allowance) or out-of-bundle rates that can run to pounds per megabyte: check your carrier’s Indonesia page before you fly. Over a two-week Bali trip, day passes alone can exceed £70–100. A local eSIM for the whole trip costs a fraction of that, with more data at local network speeds.

A local +62 number makes receiving verification texts for apps such as Gojek and Grab simpler, with SMS arriving on your active Nusio line.

Practical bits for the long haul

• Order before the 16+ hour journey: complete the ID check at home. Our team reviews daily, 09:00–01:00 Bali time (UTC+8). Approved orders receive a QR from 3 days before arrival.
• Keep your UK SIM in for banking SMS: the eSIM runs alongside it (roaming data off, SIM on).
• Prices display in GBP if your browser locale is UK; the actual charge is in IDR and your bank converts it: most UK cards do this at close to the real exchange rate.
• Plugs: Bali uses European two-round-pin sockets (types C/F, 230V): pack an adapter for your type G plugs.
