Your phone must support eSIM and be carrier-unlocked. Look for an EID in Settings → General → About on iPhone (on many phones, dialling *#06# shows it too). Carrier-locked phones, including most JV iPhones, usually cannot add another network’s eSIM. See eSIM phones in Pakistan.

Pay in rupees with JazzCash, Easypaisa or bank transfer and upload the receipt. Your QR code arrives on WhatsApp and email within 6 hours of the payment being confirmed.
