eSIM Travel Tips for Canada
Activate before you leave Changi
Buy your HelloRoam eSIM for Canada 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 Toronto or Vancouver 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 Canada. Family and colleagues in Singapore reach you on your regular number without international charges.
Download offline maps for Canada before you fly
Download Google Maps offline for Toronto, Vancouver, and any national parks you plan to visit before leaving Singapore. Canada is a vast country and signal can be thin in remote areas like Banff, Jasper, or the Yukon. Offline maps are essential for road trips and national park hikes.
Visa and entry: Singapore passport holders need an eTA
Singapore passport holders do not need a full visa for Canada but must apply for an Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA) before flying. The eTA is quick to apply for online and costs CAD 7. Apply before your Changi departure. Your HelloRoam eSIM keeps you connected for confirmation emails and any last-minute checks.
Uber and transit apps work well across Canadian cities
Uber operates in Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, and Calgary. Toronto's TTC, Vancouver's SkyTrain, and Montreal's Metro are easy to navigate with Google Maps. All need live data. Your HelloRoam eSIM keeps transit apps and ride-hailing running from the moment you clear customs at Toronto Pearson (YYZ) or Vancouver International (YVR).
Mobile networks in Canada: what Singapore visitors need to know
HelloRoam eSIM for Canada connects on Rogers Wireless, Bell, and Telus, providing 5G coverage in Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, and Calgary. Your phone picks the strongest available signal automatically with no manual network switching needed.

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.

- Public Network Name (PNN)
- The PNN is the network name field inside your eSIM profile, defined in the 3GPP standard TS 31.102 (EF_PNN). Your handphone can read this field to display the name of the network you are connected to.
- Access Point Name (APN)
- Your HelloRoam eSIM sets its Access Point Name automatically during installation. Your handphone picks up the strongest local network without any manual settings to fiddle with.
