An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a display device, at least one embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC), and at least one processor electrically connected to the display device and the eUICC, wherein the at least one processor is configured to receive an enable request for a first profile stored in the eUICC, in response to the enable request, identify whether at least one profile policy rule (PPR) is applied to the first profile, when the at least one PPR is applied to the first profile as a result of the identification, control to display a first screen including information related to the an application of the PPR through the display device, and upon receiving an enable approval for the first profile input through the first screen, process to enable the first profile.

Electronic device, and method for processing profile policy rule of embedded subscriber identification module by electronic device

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device a processor configured to, receive a signal for requesting activation of a communication service for the external electronic device, from the external electronic device using the second communication module; transmit device information of the electronic device to the first external server using the first communication module; receive information for activation of the communication service from the first external server; access the second external server on the basis of an address of the second external server which is included in the information for activation of the communication service; and perform activation of the communication service for the external electronic device using data transmitted from the second external server.

Electronic device, external electronic device, and method of managing embedded subscriber identity modules of external electronic device

An electronic device and an electronic-device-operating method are provided. The electronic device includes an embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM) embedded in the electronic device, the eSIM storing a first profile associated with a first communication service, a physical subscriber identity module (pSIM) configured such that a SIM card is capable of being removably attached thereto or capable of being inserted thereinto, the pSIM storing a second profile associated with a second communication service, a communication processor configured to control the eSIM and the pSIM, and a processor. The processor is configured to receive a signal indicating switching from a dual standby mode to a single standby mode, control a local profile assistant in device (LPAd) configured to control the eSIM in response to reception of the signal, delete a task associated with the eSIM in response to completion of disabling the LPAd, request deactivating of a protocol stack corresponding to the eSIM in response to deleting the task, and reset the communication processor in response to deactivation of the protocol stack.
