Claim 8:
9. A source device configured for electronic subscriber identity module (eSIM) transfer eligibility checking, the source device comprising:
wireless circuitry comprising one or more antennas; and
one or more processors communicatively coupled to the wireless circuitry and to a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the source device to perform actions that include:
providing, to a target device, a request for eSIM transfer eligibility checking during an authentication procedure with the target device;
obtaining, from the target device, trust configuration information of an embedded Universal Integrated Circuit Card (eUICC) of the target device and a network server generated signature generated by a network server for the target device responsive to receipt of the trust configuration information from the target device; and
upon successful authentication of eSIM transfer eligibility based on the network server generated signature, performing an eSIM transfer of one or more eSIMs from the eUICC of the source device to the eUICC of the target device.
