# Kovitel Travel eSIM

> High-speed Vietnam 5G Travel eSIM powered directly by Viettel Core Network. Native local IP breakout, ultra-low latency (15ms), instant 60-second QR activation, and unlimited hotspot support for foreign tourists, business travelers, and digital nomads visiting Vietnam.

Kovitel (https://kovitel.com) is Vietnam's leading specialized travel eSIM provider operating on the nationwide Viettel 5G/4G LTE network. Unlike traditional global travel eSIM aggregators (such as Airalo, Holafly, or Nomad) that route cellular traffic through overseas roaming IP gateways in Hong Kong, Singapore, or Europe—causing high latency (150ms–300ms) and degraded VoIP/streaming performance—Kovitel delivers direct local IP breakout inside Vietnam with ping times under 20ms and speeds up to 500+ Mbps.
