Myanmar (Burma) – known for its architecture, temples & beaches.
It is one of the Southeast Asian countries that does not get as many tourists as its neighbors, like Thailand, while still having many hidden gems.
While the Shwedagon Pagoda is certainly not a hidden gem, it is a must-see.
The same counts for visiting Inle Lake (especially when the weather is fantastic).
Or the U Bein (Wooden Foot) Bridge for classic photos.
See – visiting Myanmar does not have to be boring at all!
Another thing you should not do when in Myanmar is roam internationally – International roaming can be expensive.
That is why I always recommend local prepaid SIM cards, eSIMs & even travel eSIMs so that you can enjoy low rates for data, minutes & SMS.
Luckily, mobile data rates are low in Myanmar, although they are expensive for the region
The average cost for 1 GB of data is only 1.11 USD… so mobile data is truly cheap in (Southeast) Asia!
So, how much do SIM cards cost in Myanmar?
You can get a Burmese SIM card for 1500 MMK (0.70 USD) from MPT, ATOM (formerly Telenor), Ooredoo & Mytel in their stores. Tourist SIM cards are available from 6500 MMK (3.10 USD) to 99 999 MMK (47.45 USD – MPT, ATOM & Ooredoo). SIM cards are also sold at various airports, including Mandalay International Airport (MDL) and Yangon International Airport (RGN).
Those prices are not too bad, right?
Except for that 99 999 MMK one… that one do be expensive 🗿.
In this guide, I will go over everything you need to know about buying a SIM card in Myanmar. Let's go.

What is the Best SIM Card in Myanmar?
If you want to buy the best SIM card in Myanmar (Burma), I recommend going with MPT or Mytel. MPT has the best 2G and 3G coverage in rural Myanmar (with the slowest overall speeds). Mytel has the best 4G/LTE coverage and the fastest (4G/LTE) speeds.
Myanmar has four mobile network operators offering prepaid services easily accessible to travelers:
- MPT Myanmar
- ATOM (formerly Telenor Myanmar)
- Ooredoo Myanmar
- Mytel Myanmar

Anyone 12 or older living in or visiting Myanmar can buy a Burmese SIM card with some restrictions, and you do have to comply with Myanmar's SIM card registration regulations.
And if you are younger than 12, you can still get a SIM card if your parents buy one for you (in their name).
The main restriction is that you can only have two active SIM cards per mobile operator in your name in Myanmar.
Besides those restrictions, you are free to use Burmese SIM cards.
Regarding the registration requirements, you must show your passport at the point of sale.

You can expect to pay the following for Burmese SIM cards:
- MPT Myanmar: 1500 MMK

- Ooredoo Myanmar: 5000 MMK, 8000 MMK, 49 000 MMK, 99 000 MMK & 300 000 MMK
- Mytel Myanmar: 1500 MMK
The following Burmese mobile operators also have SIM cards targeting tourists:

Use the Wise Currency Converter tool (free) for up-to-date MMK (Myanmar Kyat) to your currency (let's say THB – Thai Baht) exchange rates.
For reference, below are some exchange rates between MMK and USD (US Dollars):
- 100 MMK = 0.50 USD
- 1000 MMK = 0.50 USD
- 10 000 MMK = 4.75 USD
- 100 000 MMK = 47.45 USD
For any other currency, use the Wise Currency Converter tool.
(Travel) eSIMs for Myanmar
The use of (travel) eSIMs has exploded in recent years.
Not only do more phones have eSIM capability (some US-sold iPhones are eSIM-only), but the number of providers adopting technology has proliferated as well.
This includes local mobile operators offering eSIM and platforms selling eSIMs (travel eSIMs).
If you want a local Burmese eSIM, you are out of luck because the mobile operators do not sell them (to prepaid customers).
But remember that you have to comply with Myanmar's SIM card registration regulations, even when you get a Burmese eSIM.
If you do not wish to deal with registration for whatever reason, like privacy, consider getting a travel eSIM for Myanmar.
Many eSIM providers have eSIMs for Myanmar only, eSIMs for multiple Asian destinations & even global eSIMs, which I discuss in my Myanmar eSIM buying guide.

Here is a quick introduction to your Myanmar travel eSIM options:
And I know you love discounts, so use one of these codes when getting a travel eSIM:
- Alosim: PTW for 5% off (as many times as you wish for as many eSIMs as you want)
- Holafly: PHONETRAVELWIZ for 5% off (as many times as you wish for as many eSIMs as you want)

Ooredoo Myanmar

Ooredoo Myanmar is the third-largest mobile operator in Myanmar.
It has one of the better-performing networks in the country.
Ooredoo, as a mobile operator, is also active in Algeria, Indonesia (as Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison), Iraq (as Asiacell), Kuwait, the Maldives, Myanmar, Oman, Palestine & Tunisia.
However, after the 2021 coup d'état, the Ooredoo group announced it would leave the Burmese market (like Telenor did, which became ATOM).
For now, the Ooredoo brand will remain.
Ooredoo uses the following frequencies:
- 2G: 900 MHz
- 3G: 2100 MHz

Ooredoo SIM cards are also sold at Mandalay International Airport (MDL) and Yangon International Airport (RGN).

However, you can be charged up to 300 000 MMK for an Ooredoo SIM card, but that is when you get a premium (bronze, silver, gold, or platinum) phone number (one that should be easier to remember).

Just tell the salesperson you want a normal phone number, and you will be charged 5000 MMK (or 8000 MMK if normal phone numbers are “out of stock”).
Short-term visitors and tourists can also get the Ooredoo Tourist SIM cards.
They are sold for between 3000 MMK to 45 000 MMK with ever-changing benefits (data, (international) minutes & (international) SMS), so I cannot list them for you now 🫠.

Mytel Myanmar

Mytel Myanmar, just Mytel, is the smallest mobile operator in Myanmar.
It is backed by Viettel from Vietnam.
The mobile operator, backed by the Vietnamese Ministry of Defence, usually enters the market by building coverage in rural and underserved parts of the country with basically no competition before heading to urban areas.
That way, mobile operators started or backed by Viettel gain a userbase quickly because the population of rural areas has no to spotty coverage to begin with.
Viettel did the same thing with Mytel in Vietnam, but it also has the fastest speeds in the country.
Mytel uses the following frequencies:
- 2G: 900 MHz
- 3G: N/A – never had it
- 4G/LTE: 1800 MHz (Band 3), 2100 MHz (Band 1) & 2600 MHz (Band 7)

Looking for the next steps to enhance your phone travel experiences? Here is what to do:
Support Phone Travel Wiz
It takes a lot of time to analyze, translate & review the SIM card options worldwide (especially to test them out).
Your support helps me keep producing impartial content by eliminating the need to recommend international SIM cards as the best local SIM card (but some of them CAN be useful).
Every Ko-Fi donation, one-time or monthly, helps me to spend more time creating local SIM card buying guides.
