Hello everyone,

Staying connected while living in China remains a priority for expats, especially when choosing a mobile operator or to understand the local specificities of mobile plans.

Here some elements to consider:

How to choose your mobile operator in China?

What documents are required to subscribe to a mobile plan in China?

What criteria should you consider when choosing a plan matching your needs?

Are e-sim cards a suitable option for expats? What are the conditions?

What are your local tips for saving money on your mobile plan, especially for international calls (apps, operators, etc.) or mobile data?

Feel free to share your experiences and advice to choose your mobile plan as an expat in China.

Thank you for your contribution.

Go for China Mobile or Unicom for good coverage. You鈥檒l need your passport to get a SIM. For international calls, use apps like WeChat or WhatsApp. E-sims are convenient if your phone supports them. Look out for deals to save money.
