Your QR code is delivered to your email immediately after purchase — typically within seconds. You can install it right away or save it for later, before you fly to North Korea.

For most travelers to North Korea, the Unlimited plan gives peace of mind — stream maps, video-call home, and share photos without worrying about data. For short trips, a 1–7 day data plan is great value.
