Type a model such as iPhone 13 or Galaxy S22 and read the answer, plus the in-phone check that beats any lookup table.

Search your model and see if it takes an eSIM

Two things matter before you buy: does the handset support eSIM, and is it network-locked. The first you can look up; the second only the carrier you bought it from can confirm.

Confirm it on the phone itself

  • Dial *#06# — if an EID line appears, the handset has an eSIM chip
  • On iPhone open Settings, General, About and look for EID
  • On most Android phones open Settings, About phone, SIM status
Some regional variants ship without eSIM, notably mainland China models and certain carrier-tied units. A model table is guidance, not proof — trust what your own handset reports.
This tool runs fixed formulas over the numbers you enter. No plan price is wired into the result, and the answer does not shift with what we earn.

Frequently asked questions

What if there is no EID?+

The handset has no eSIM chip and needs a physical SIM. No travel eSIM will work on it, from us or anyone else.

Can a network-locked phone use a travel eSIM?+

Usually not: the handset rejects other operators' profiles. It has to be unlocked by the carrier that locked it.

What about tablets and smartwatches?+

Many cellular tablets take an eSIM and work fine with a data plan. Most smartwatches use carrier-tied eSIM profiles, so travel eSIMs generally do not work on them.
