How to Check if Your Phone Supports eSIM

There’s a universal way to check this, no matter what smartphone or operating system you’re using. Also, it doesn’t matter which country you’re in. Here’s what to do:

  • Dial *#06# on your smartphone and press "Call".
  • If a 32-digit code (EID) appears on the screen, your phone supports eSIM. If you only see the IMEI number, the option is not available.
  • Press "Done" to complete the verification.

You can also check this in your smartphone’s settings:

  • On iPhone: Go to "Mobile Data" – if your device supports eSIM cards, you'll see the option to "Add eSIM".
  • On Android: Go to "Mobile Network" or "SIM Manager". If the feature is available, you’ll see an option to "Add eSIM".
