eSIM Travel Tips for Brazil
Activate before you leave Changi
Buy your HelloRoam eSIM for Brazil before your flight departs from Singapore Changi Airport. Scan the QR code at home or at the boarding gate, enable data on arrival, and you are connected in São Paulo or Rio de Janeiro without hunting for a local SIM card.
Keep your Singapore number reachable
On a dual SIM device, keep your Singtel, StarHub, or M1 SIM active for calls and texts from Singapore. Set HelloRoam as your data line for Brazil. Family and colleagues in Singapore reach you on your regular number without international charges.
Download offline maps for Brazil before you fly
Download Google Maps offline for Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, and any Amazon lodges before leaving Singapore. Signal in the Amazon rainforest and remote parts of the interior is extremely thin. Offline maps and pre-loaded guides are essential for eco-tourism and jungle tours.
Visa and entry: Singapore passport holders need a Brazilian e-visa
Singapore passport holders require a Brazilian e-visa before travel. Apply online through the Brazilian government portal well in advance. Keep your HelloRoam eSIM ready for confirmation emails and any last-minute checks at São Paulo-Guarulhos International (GRU) or Rio Galeão International (GIG).
99 and Uber are the safe ride-hailing options in Brazil
99 (owned by DiDi) and Uber are the recommended ride-hailing apps in Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, and major Brazilian cities. Avoid hailing taxis off the street at airports. Your HelloRoam eSIM keeps both apps running from the moment you clear customs at Guarulhos (GRU) or Galeão (GIG) Airport.
Mobile networks in Brazil: what Singapore visitors need to know
HelloRoam eSIM for Brazil connects on TIM, providing 5G coverage in São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and major urban areas. TIM has broad national reach across Brazil. Remote Amazon rainforest areas have very limited or no mobile signal. Your phone picks the strongest available TIM signal automatically.

On a trip to Europe, my hotel Wi-Fi was so slow and outside Wi-Fi was unreliable. I couldn’t take it anymore so I got helloroam for a few days. It was tricky to set up correctly because of the primary settings (with my original number). But I reached out to their customer service via WhatsApp. Super responsive and helpful, with specific and clear steps to troubleshoot. Appreciate having 4G roaming instead of being stuck with in and out Wi-Fi during my trip!!

Very good experience! The eSIM was easy to set up and worked great in London. It was much cheaper than it would have been to use my own operator there.
