A method for provisioning a communication device with an embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM) profile. The method includes releasing a first eSIM profile by an eSIM management server hosting a plurality of unallocated eSIM profiles, and registering the release of the first eSIM profile by a discovery server. The method additionally includes requesting at least some of the information related to the release of the first eSIM profile from the discovery server, wherein the request includes an international mobile equipment identity (IMEI) of the communication device, and retrieving an address of the eSIM management server by the discovery server based on the IMEI. The method further includes providing the address to a local provisioning assistant (LPA) of the communication device by the discovery server, and provisioning the communication device with the first eSIM profile from the eSIM management server by the LPA of the communication device.
