Does EastESIM's Philippine plan include a local (+63) phone number?

EastESIM's Philippine plan is a data-only eSIM, meaning it provides high-speed internet access but does not come with a local Filipino (+63) phone number for traditional calls or SMS. This design also contributes to bypassing the mandatory SIM registration requirement. For communication, you can easily rely on data-based apps such as WhatsApp, Viber, FaceTime, or Messenger to make calls and send messages. These apps function seamlessly over your EastESIM data connection, keeping you in touch with friends and family back home or fellow travelers.
