Xiaomi 13 and eSIM: what to know

Yes, the Xiaomi 13 supports eSIM. It combines a physical nano-SIM slot with eSIM, so you can keep your home SIM active and add a travel plan digitally. The phone can store more than one eSIM profile, but only a limited number can be active at the same time, so delete profiles you no longer need.

Where to add it: open Settings > SIM cards & mobile networks, then tap Add eSIM (the wording can vary slightly by MIUI/HyperOS version and region).
Find your EID: open the Phone app and dial *#06#, or check Settings > About phone > Status information. The EID is the long number shown next to the IMEI.
Data setup: in SIM settings, choose the eSIM as your mobile data SIM and keep data roaming switched on for that eSIM only.
Travel tip: keep a stable Wi-Fi connection while installing the profile, and set your physical SIM as the default for calls and SMS to avoid roaming charges.

With an eSIM Prime travel eSIM on your Xiaomi 13, install the profile before you leave and activate it when you land. Your main number stays on the physical SIM, so WhatsApp and incoming calls keep working as usual.
