Limited internet access is available at some hotels and cafes as well as small internet shops however connections are unreliable and slow.

Myanmar has its own cell phone network and cell phones from other countries do not have access yet. The Myanmar SIM cards are different from the 'normal' SIM cards which are used all over the world. Standard size SIM cards can be purchased at Yangon International airport for USD 20 and USD 50 cards and are also available at some shops. Please check with hotel reception or your tour guide for assistance. These SIM cards can be used for both international and domestic calls, one month validity and can be refilled. However you need to check if your hand set will be compatible to the card. You might need to rent a local hand set (available at Yangon International Airport).

We cannot guarantee to be able to purchase a CDMA SIM card and good connection handset due to supply difficulties. Reception throughout the country can be difficult. WiFi is available in certain hotels and restaurants.
