Compatibility Verification

How to Verify Your Phone Can Use a UK eSIM

Follow these two simple checks before ordering your United Kingdom 5G profile.

Check 1 • 5-Second Test

Dial *#06# on Your Keypad

Open your phone's phone/dialer app and enter *#06#. A "Device Info" screen will automatically appear.

Look for the "EID" Value:

If an EID (Embedded Identity Document) number or barcode is listed alongside your IMEI, your phone contains an embedded eSIM module and is 100% compatible! If only IMEI numbers appear and no EID is listed, your phone does not support eSIM.

Check 2 • Settings & Carrier Status

Confirm "Add eSIM" in Settings

Apple iPhone: Go to Settings → Cellular (or Mobile Data). If you see an option to "Add eSIM" or "Add Cellular Plan", your iPhone is supported.

Samsung Galaxy: Go to Settings → Connections → SIM Manager → Add eSIM.

Google Pixel: Go to Settings → Network & internet → SIMs → Add eSIM.

Important: Your smartphone must be carrier unlocked. (On iPhone, verify in Settings → General → About → Carrier Lock: No SIM restrictions).
