2019 Scope
The present document defines the remote management of files and applets on the SIM/USIM/ISIM.
It describes the APDU format for remote management.
Furthermore the document specifies:
- a set of commands coded according to this APDU structure and used in the remote file management on the
SIM/USIM specified in TS 51.011 [1], TS 31.101 [2], TS 31.102 [3], TS 31.103 [6].
- a set of commands coded according to this APDU structure and used in the remote applet management on the
SIM/USIM. This is based on ETSI TS 102 226 [4].
The remote APDU structure for SIM/USIM/ISIM applications shall comply with the one defined in
ETSI TS 102 226 [4]. The present document only contains additional requirements or explicit limitations for
SIM/USIM/ISIM applications.
