Brunei eSIM FAQs
Yes, you can. Around 99 percent of our eSIMs allow quick and easy top ups through the ZenSim app. You can add more data, increase the days, or even include a different destination on the same eSIM right from the Zen Garden.
Open the app, go to the Zen Garden area, and you’ll see the top up button waiting for you.
Travelling for a while: If your trip lasts more than 30 days, you can queue multiple top ups. None of them will interrupt your current plan because each one only activates when the previous eSIM expires.
Travelling to more destinations: Most eSIMs let you attach extra countries via a top up. For example, if you're heading home from Europe and stopping in Singapore, you can add Singapore to your Europe eSIM and it will switch on once you arrive.
Of course! At ZenSim, we offer eSIMs that support over 200+ countries, including Brunei. On top of this we also provide regional eSIMs which cover multiple countries within one eSIM, please see our Travel eSIMs page for more info on these.
Not until you land in Brunei. Installing ahead won’t start your plan; it goes live automatically when you arrive.
Make sure to install before you travel, as WiFi is required for setup and this way your Brunei eSIM will be ready to use when you land.
If you encounter connection issues, see our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or contact support.
Your Brunei travel eSIM kicks in as soon as you arrive in Brunei - provided it was installed beforehand.
If you install it after you land, it should start working right away.
If you run into trouble, see our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or get in touch with us.
Traditional calls and SMS aren’t part of our Brunei eSIM packages - they’re strictly data provision. To talk or text, use internet - based services (WhatsApp, Signal, etc.) with your eSIM data.
Definitely. Install your Brunei travel eSIM up to 30 days before departure, and it will activate automatically when you arrive.
Installing early won’t consume data or days from your plan until you land in Brunei.
If an iPhone shows an activation error when installing abroad, you can safely ignore it - check our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide for guidance.
Your eSIM will activate automatically once you arrive in Brunei. We advise installing your Brunei Travel eSIM before you travel (installation is distinct from activation).
To install, just scan the QR code we send or install via the ZenSim app over WiFi. On landing in Brunei, the eSIM will switch on by itself.
If you have any problems, check our eSIM Troubleshooting Guide or contact us 😊
Hands down, a travel eSIM beats roaming in Brunei. Here’s why:
Cheaper Data: Pay local prices rather than roaming surcharges from your home network.
Instant Setup: No waiting for physical SIM delivery - your eSIM is ready the minute you land.
Full Expense Control: Track data usage and spending in - app, so you avoid surprise fees.
No, these eSIMs only provide data access and do not assign you a phone number. To make calls, please use internet - enabled apps such as WhatsApp or FaceTime.
Your Brunei eSIM is designed for use within Brunei, so once it's been activated there, it won’t work in other countries.
If you're visiting multiple destinations, a better option might be one of our regional Travel eSIMs that cover entire regions like Europe or Asia.
Connection Issues: If you’re experiencing trouble connecting, start with our eSIM troubleshooting guide. If all else fails, reach out to us and we’ll sort it out quickly.
