Laos has three operators: Unitel (the largest, with the broadest coverage), Lao Telecom and the smaller ETL. In Vientiane, Luang Prabang and Vang Vieng there is fine 4G, but in the mountainous northern provinces and remote villages the signal quickly weakens or drops out. Unitel reaches furthest along the main roads and in smaller towns. Networks: Unitel, Lao Telecom, ETL.
Choose an eSIM that runs on Unitel for the best coverage outside the cities. For a round trip, 8 to 15 GB is usually enough.
Laos lies outside the EU, so ordinary roaming with your home plan is expensive here.
