Foreword
rd
This Technical Specification (TS) has been produced by the 3 Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).
The contents of the present document are subject to continuing work within the TSG and may change following formal
TSG approval. Should the TSG modify the contents of the present document, it will be re-released by the TSG with an
identifying change of release date and an increase in version number as follows:
Version x.y.z
where:
x the first digit:
1 presented to TSG for information;
2 presented to TSG for approval;
3 or greater indicates TSG approved document under change control.
y the second digit is incremented for all changes of substance, i.e. technical enhancements, corrections,
updates, etc.
z the third digit is incremented when editorial only changes have been incorporated in the document.
Introduction
The present document defines the IM Services Identity Module (ISIM) application. This application resides on the
UICC, an IC card specified in TS 31.101 [3]. In particular, TS 31.101 [3] specifies the application independent
properties of the UICC/terminal interface such as the physical characteristics and the logical structure.
TS 31.101 [3] is one of the core documents for this specification and is therefore referenced in many places in the
present document.

1 Scope
The present document defines the ISIM application for access to IMS services.
The present document specifies:
- specific command parameters;
- file structures;
- contents of EFs (Elementary Files);
- security functions;
- application protocol to be used on the interface between UICC (ISIM) and Terminal.
This is to ensure interoperability between an ISIM and Terminal independently of the respective manufacturer, card
issuer or operator.
The present document does not define any aspects related to the administrative management phase of the ISIM. Any
internal technical realisation of either the ISIM or the Terminal is only specified where these are reflected over the
interface. The present document does not specify any of the security algorithms that may be used.

The following documents contain provisions that, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of the present
document.
• References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or
non-specific.
• For a specific reference, subsequent revisions do not apply.
• For a non-specific reference, the latest version applies. In the case of a reference to a 3GPP document (including
a GSM document), a non-specific reference implicitly refers to the latest version of that document in the same
