How do I check if my phone supports eSIM?

Open your phone dialer and enter *#06#. If an EID number appears alongside the IMEI, your phone has eSIM hardware. You can also check Settings under Mobile Data or Cellular for an Add eSIM option.

Does my phone need to be unlocked to use a travel eSIM?

Yes. Your phone must be carrier-unlocked to use a third-party travel eSIM. A phone locked to your home carrier will not accept another provider's eSIM.
