Check in your phone settings

Not sure which model you have? Your phone can tell you in a few seconds.

  • Any phone

    *#06#

    Open the phone app and dial this code. If an EID number shows up, the phone supports eSIM.

  • iPhone

    1. Settings
    2. General
    3. About

    Look for an EID number. Under Carrier Lock, "No SIM restrictions" means the iPhone is unlocked.

  • Android

    Samsung
    1. Settings
    2. Connections
    3. SIM manager
    Google Pixel
    1. Settings
    2. Network and internet
    3. SIMs

    If you can add an eSIM there, the phone supports it. Menu names change a little from brand to brand.

Unlocked phones only. A phone locked to a carrier cannot add an eSIM from another provider, even when the model supports eSIM. Ask your carrier to unlock it before you travel.
