  2. Check your EID:
    Settings → General → About, then scroll to EID. If an EID number is shown, your device supports eSIM.
  3. Check your model region:
    Settings → General → About, then tap Model Number. If it ends in CH/A (mainland China) or ZA/A or ZP/A (Hong Kong or Macao), eSIM may not be supported.
