Method and device for transmitting and receiving profile for providing communication service in wireless communication system

A terminal for supporting remote reception of a profile in a wireless communication system, the terminal comprising:

• a plurality of universal integrated circuit cards (UICCs);
• a transceiver;
• and
• a processor configured to:
• control the transceiver to receive, from a server for managing the profile, a second message including a first message, the first message for downloading the profile,
• determine whether a header information of the second message satisfies a criterion, the header information including at least one of a protocol identifier, a data coding scheme, an originator address, or information indicating whether the first message is encrypted,
• transfer, to a first UICC and a second UICC among the plurality of UICCs, the first message if the header information of the second message satisfies the criterion, wherein the first UICC is a UICC physically attachable to and detachable from the UE, and the second UICC is an embedded UICC (eUICC), wherein the first UICC discards the first message, and wherein the second UICC decrypts the first message using an over-the-air (OTA) key, and
• receive the profile based on the decrypted first message.
