No passport registration is required for assisted activation service from SIMCARD.SG for SHORT-TERM TOURIST USE ONLY (LESS THAN 30 CALENDAR DAYS).
All activation requests must be submitted at least 48 hours in advance of travel for timely activation.
IMPORTANT: SIMCARD.SG only activates the Prepaid Epic Data Plan and registration service is only provided for customers using for TOURIST and SHORT-TERM use. If you wish to use the SIM Card for long-term (MORE THAN 30 DAYS) or on other Optus prepaid plans, please DO NOT USE OUR ACTIVATION SERVICE.
2. SELF-ACTIVATION
Optus SIM Cards can be activated using NON-AUSTRALIAN PASSPORT WITH VALID AUSTRALIAN VISA after successfully passing through immigration in Australia. You do not need to find an Internet connection to activate the SIM, simply plug in the SIM Card and follow the registration process.
