Mainland China plans only. Hong Kong, Macao and multi-destination packages are not included in this comparison. Check your exact route and device before buying. ## Find plans for your trip Choose a starting point, then select your exact trip length. A longer-validity plan can also suit a short trip. Results cover selected plans, not the whole market. [Short trips · up to 7 days](https://coupongogogo.com/esim/china/?days=7#plans) · [8–14 days](https://coupongogogo.com/esim/china/?days=14#plans) · [15–30 days](https://coupongogogo.com/esim/china/?days=30#plans) Need more than 30 days? Check the provider directly; this selection may not cover your whole trip. ## Check more than data A data-only eSIM does not guarantee a phone number or SMS verification. Confirm hotspot, activation and fair-use terms for your exact plan. [Read the China setup guide ↗](https://coupongogogo.com/guides/china-esim-setup/) ## Choosing a China eSIM? Start with your trip length and total data, then check activation, hotspot and essential apps. Prices below cover selected packages, not the whole market.
