Network and coverage
Your eSIM roams on whichever eligible local network gives the best signal: Chunghwa Telecom, Taiwan Mobile. Some plans include 5G where the network offers it.
Why Kokio for Taiwan
Kokio asks for no ID at all: you sign in with a passkey, and we never collect your name or email.
Kokio plans connect by roaming, so there is no local SIM to register.
Pay by card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, or crypto (USDC, USDT or DAI from a Kokio Wallet on Base, or other coins via MoonPay). The plan price is the same whichever way you pay, because Kokio covers the payment processing fees.
Tips for Taiwan
- Your eSIM can use Chunghwa Telecom or Taiwan Mobile. If the signal is weak in the mountains, choose the other by hand in Settings → Mobile Service → your Kokio line → Network Selection.
- Taipei, then Tokyo or Seoul? The Asia plans in the app cover Taiwan, Japan and South Korea on one eSIM.
- Unlimited plans run for 3, 5, 7, 10, 15 or 30 days, and every Taiwan plan can use 5G.
Setup
- Install the eSIM at home on Wi-Fi. It installs once only.
- Land at Taoyuan (TPE).
- iPhone: Settings → Mobile Service → choose the Kokio line for mobile data, with data roaming on.
- Not connecting? Toggle Airplane Mode, then pick a network manually.
