Common compatibility questions
Answers on what affects eSIM support and what to do if your model is not listed.
How can I check whether my phone supports eSIM?+
Dial *#06#: if the screen shows an EID number, the phone supports eSIM. On iPhone you can also look for "Add eSIM" in Settings → Cellular; on Android — in Settings → Connections (or Network) → SIM manager. Or find your model in our list.
Which phones support eSIM?+
iPhone XS / XR and all newer models, Google Pixel 3 and newer, Samsung Galaxy S20 and newer plus the Z Fold and Z Flip series, and most recent flagships from Xiaomi, OPPO, Motorola and Huawei. Exceptions: iPhones sold in mainland China have no eSIM, and some budget versions of Android models skip it — check the exact model.
Will an eSIM work on a carrier-locked phone?+
No. A phone locked to one carrier will not accept another provider's eSIM. Ask your carrier to unlock it before the trip — check under Settings → General → About → Carrier Lock on iPhone, or by inserting a SIM from another carrier on Android.
What if my phone does not support eSIM?+
Buy a local physical SIM card on arrival (usually at the airport or a carrier shop, with your passport), use a pocket Wi-Fi router, or rely on your home carrier's roaming package. A local SIM is often the cheapest for long stays.
Can I keep my main SIM card active?+
Yes. Phones with eSIM work in dual-SIM mode: keep your main SIM for calls and SMS (bank codes still arrive) and use the eSIM for data. To avoid roaming charges, turn off mobile data on the main line.
