Thus, the method is efficient for a multiple-profile environment.

Abstract: A method and device for managing an identifier of an embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC) is disclosed. The eUICC receives an identifier information request, determines whether there is a network carrier profile in an enabled state, and provides a response with identifier information corresponding to the identifier information request based on the results of the determination. According to the method, it is possible to separately manage the unique identifier of the eUICC and a network carrier ICCID and to dynamically manage the identifier of the eUICC according to the state of the network carrier profile of the eUICC.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method for selecting a specific provisioning profile from among a plurality of provisioning profiles and an apparatus using same. In a terminal to which an embedded UICC (eUICC) is mounted, the eUICC includes at least one provisioning profile wherein each of the one or more provisioning profile enables a user terminal to communicate with a subscriber management entity supporting at least one network provider. Accordingly, a specific provisioning profile can be selected from among the one or more provisioning profiles, and a network can be connected with a specific mobile communication provider using the selected provisioning profile.
