What Is a Jazz eSIM?
A Jazz eSIM is a digital SIM built into your phone. You do not insert a plastic card. You scan a QR code, and your number is ready to use.
You can save more than one Jazz number on the same phone. Only one can be active at a time. Your existing services and tariffs stay the same, and the eSIM also works on roaming.
Jazz eSIM Price in Pakistan
The Jazz eSIM charge is Rs 1,500. Standard number charges are extra. PTA has also capped the maximum first-time eSIM fee at Rs 1,500.
Some older pages still show Rs 2,000 for an existing number and Rs 5,000 for a new one. Those figures are out of date. Ask the staff to confirm the amount before you pay.
How Much Does It Cost to Convert a Jazz SIM to an eSIM?
Converting your current Jazz number costs Rs 1,500. Your old physical SIM for that number stops working once the eSIM is active.
Moving the eSIM to another phone is free up to 10 times, under PTA’s revised rule. Going back to a physical SIM means another visit to a Jazz outlet. Standard SIM change charges apply.
How to Get an eSIM for Jazz
You must visit an outlet in person. Jazz needs a fingerprint check before it activates the eSIM. Carry your original CNIC, which Jazz asks for during SIM replacement.
- Make sure your phone supports eSIM and is unlocked.
- Visit a Jazz Experience Center, franchise or eligible retailer.
- Ask to register an eSIM on your number.
- Complete the biometric check and pay the fee.
- Collect the voucher with your QR code.
- Connect your phone to the internet.
- Go to Settings > Cellular and tap “Add Cellular Plan.” The camera opens.
- Scan the QR code. Your eSIM will be active in 5 minutes.
These menu names are for iPhone. On Android, the names change from brand to brand.
How to Turn Jazz SIM to eSIM
Follow the same steps and tell the staff you want to convert your existing number. Not sure which number is on your SIM? Use the Jazz number check code before you leave home.
Pick a time when you do not need your number urgently. The old SIM stops working after the switch.
Jazz eSIM QR Code
Jazz gives you the QR code on a voucher at the outlet. The official steps do not offer a QR code download.
Do not share the code with anyone. Do not post a photo of it. Keep the voucher until your eSIM works.
If you lose the code before scanning it, call 111 or visit a Jazz Experience Center. They will deactivate it so nobody else can scan it.
You can scan the same code again on a new phone. First delete the eSIM properly from the old phone. A factory reset also removes your eSIM. You will then need a new QR code from a Jazz outlet.
Check Your Phone and IMEI First
An eSIM adds a second IMEI to your phone. To avoid blocking in DIRBS, send both IMEIs to 8484. Then email screenshots of IMEI 1 and IMEI 2 to [email protected]. Dial *#06# to see your IMEIs.
Jazz lists many supported phones. These include iPhone XR and newer models, several Pixel phones, Galaxy S20 and S21 series, Galaxy Fold and Flip models, Huawei P40 and Oppo Find X3 Pro. The list does not name iPhone 14, 15 or 16. Ask the outlet to confirm your exact model.
Jazz eSIM Packages
Jazz does not sell separate eSIM packages. Your current tariff and services move to the eSIM with your number. You can subscribe to any regular Jazz package as before.
If your balance runs low, the Jazz advance code can give you a small loan balance.
Jazz eSIM Online Order
You cannot order a Jazz eSIM online. The official process is outlet-based, and biometric verification is required first.
PTA is working with NADRA and mobile operators on remote options. One idea is face verification through the Pak ID app. Another is self-service biometric checks in operator apps. These plans are still being finalised.
Travel eSIMs sold online are a different product. Many run on the Jazz network, but they are data-only. They do not come with a phone number. If you are a foreign visitor, ask Jazz which documents it accepts for an eSIM.
Can I add more than one Jazz eSIM?
Yes. You can save several, but only one works at a time.
Can I go back to a physical SIM?
Yes. Visit a Jazz outlet and pay the standard SIM change charges
Is biometric verification required to get an eSIM?
Yes. Jazz verifies your fingerprint before it activates the eSIM
