Phone manufacturers, including Apple, are moving towards “eSIM*.”If your carriers network does not support, you have to buy a physical nano-SIM. Nano-SIM Apple phones can still be purchased from Canada (most iPhone’s purchased in the USA are not available with a nano-SIM).
Arrange for the purchase of an iPhone and international shipping from Canada with Jet's partner, eZone.
Apple's new iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, sold outside the USA have a physical SIM card.
Apple removed the SIM card tray from all iPhones starting with iphone 14 models. This forces customers to use an eSIM. A digital SIM allows users to activate a cellular plan without having to use a physical nano-SIM card. Visit Apple support for a list of carriers that support eSIM technology outside the USA.
