How to Find IMEI, ICCID, and EID on Your Smartphone (Samsung, iPhone, Pixel)

If you need to activate an eSIM, check your device details, or contact carrier support, knowing how to find your IMEI, ICCID, and EID is essential. These unique identifiers help manage your phone’s connectivity and SIM/eSIM profiles.

In this guide, we’ll show you how to locate these numbers on Samsung, iPhone, and Google Pixel devices.

What Are IMEI, ICCID, and EID?

Before we begin, let’s clarify what these terms mean:

• IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) – A unique 15-digit number identifying your device (used for tracking, carrier locks, and warranty checks).

• ICCID (Integrated Circuit Card Identifier) – A 19-22 digit number tied to your physical SIM or eSIM (used for network activation).

• EID (Embedded Identity Document) – A 32-digit number specific to eSIM-capable devices (required for eSIM activation).

Now, let’s find them on different smartphones.
