eSim in Nepal
Nepal Telecom (NT) is going to distribute e-SIM cards to their customers on Shrawan 2079. The company has agreed to use them after negotiating with an international phone service provider, Monty UK Global.
With the availability of e-SIM technology, users don’t need to use a physical SIM card. However, you would need a smartphone that supports e-SIM and customers would also need to make a phone call to register with their current carrier.
