A SIM card, or subscriber identity module card, is essential component of any phone. It connects your device to a cellular network and stores vital information, including your phone number.

Many modern models have electronic SIM cards. In fact, any iPhone released after the iPhone 14 in the U.S. will not have a SIM tray. If you have an older version, however, you will have to change your SIM manually.

Here's a step-by-step guide on how to remove an iPhone's SIM card.

How to remove a SIM card from an iPhone

Before removing your SIM card, it is important to know which side the tray is on.

According to Apple, the following models' trays are on the left side:

  • iPhone 13 Pro
  • iPhone 13 Pro Max
  • iPhone 13
  • iPhone 13 mini
  • iPhone 12
  • iPhone 12 mini
  • iPhone 12 Pro
  • iPhone 12 Pro Max

These models will have their tray on the right side:

  • iPhone 11 Pro
  • iPhone 11 Pro Max
  • iPhone 11
  • iPhone XS
  • iPhone XS Max
  • iPhone XR
  • iPhone X

If you have a model older than the ones listed above, check Apple's site to locate where its tray is. You can find the model by going into your iPhone's settings, selecting "General" and then opening "About."

Once you have found the tray, insert a paper clip or SIM removal tool into the small hole. Push inward and the tray should open. Remove the SIM card and you're all set. From there, you can insert the SIM card into a different device or replace it with a new card.
