Embedded SIMs (eSIM) Latest Industry Trends: Revenue, Price, Sales Analysis Report 2026
2026年 1月 30日(金曜日) 17:31
On Jan 30, Global Info Research released "Global Embedded SIMs (eSIM) Market 2026 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2032". This report includes an overview of the development of the Embedded SIMs (eSIM) industry chain, the market status of Embedded SIMs (eSIM) Market, and key enterprises in developed and developing market, and analysed the cutting-edge technology, patent, hot applications and market trends of Embedded SIMs (eSIM).
According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Embedded SIMs (eSIM) market size was valued at US$ 1079 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 1899 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 8.5% during review period.
eSIM (Embedded SIM) is a user identification technology that embeds the traditional SIM card directly into the device rather than as an independent removable component. The eSIM ICs is a hardware module that supports eSIM technology, allowing users to use mobile services by downloading and activating operator profiles without a physical SIM card.
Built to GSMA specifications, eSIM ICs incorporate secure elements for authentication, encryption, and remote provisioning, allowing users to switch carriers or service plans over the air. Found in smartphones, tablets, wearables, IoT devices, and connected vehicles, ESIM supports multiple profiles, enhances device design flexibility, and simplifies global connectivity management. In 2024, the shipment volume of eSIM ICs will be about 500 million pieces, with an average price of US per piece.
The upstream of eSIM IC involves the design and fabrication of secure integrated circuits by semiconductor manufacturers, including the development of embedded SIM hardware, secure elements, operating systems, and cryptographic modules. This stage requires advanced foundry processes, secure IC packaging, and compliance with GSMA standards for remote SIM provisioning. The downstream encompasses device makers—such as smartphone, tablet, wearable, automotive, and IoT manufacturers—who integrate eSIM Module into their products, as well as mobile network operators and connectivity platforms that activate, manage, and remotely provision subscriber profiles. Further downstream, eSIM-enabled devices flow into consumer and industrial sectors where users benefit from flexible carrier switching, enhanced device miniaturization, and improved security. Together, the value chain links semiconductor innovation upstream with global connectivity services and mass-market device deployment downstream.
The eSIM market is evolving from a niche convenience feature into a foundational connectivity layer for consumer devices, automotive telematics and massive IoT — driven by demand for remote provisioning, smaller form factors, stronger security, and simplified logistics for device makers and operators. Key growth drivers are automotive OEMs standardizing on embedded UICCs for lifetime connectivity, the explosion of wearables and connected industrial sensors that benefit from zero-touch provisioning, and operators shifting business models toward subscription-based, multi-profile services; likewise, enterprises value the ability to manage fleets centrally (SM-DP+/SM-SR platforms). Obstacles remain: certification and GSMA-compliance overhead, operator commercial resistance in some markets, fragmentation of provisioning ecosystems, and the technical/organizational complexity of integrating eUICC, OTA platforms and lifecycle management. Two important technical trends shape the near future — iSIM (SIM functionality integrated into main SoCs) which pushes further miniaturization and cost down, and tighter convergence of eSIM with secure connectivity stacks and modem vendors (reducing BOM and integration pain). Regionally, adoption is fastest where regulators and operators support remote provisioning and where device segments (automotive, wearables) are concentrated; emerging markets lag where operator models and certification create barriers. For incumbents and new entrants alike the winning strategy is clear: invest in GSMA-compliant security, build strong operator and SM-DP partnerships, offer robust lifecycle management tools, and roadmap iSIM-capable solutions — because once provisioning and business models align, eSIM becomes a default connectivity choice rather than an optional feature.
