Device compatibility and unlocking requirements
To use an Albania eSIM, your smartphone must be eSIM-compatible and carrier-unlocked. Most modern models of iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, and other flagship models support eSIM technology. Phones locked to a specific carrier cannot install or activate an eSIM. We strongly recommend checking your device compatibility before purchase.
Dial *#06# to check if your phone is eSIM-compatible. If you see the [EID] code after dialing the number, your phone supports eSIM!
Detailed, step-by-step instructions for checking your phone’s unlock status on Apple and Android devices are available in the “Device unlock check”.
