Abstract
An electronic device includes: a near field communication (NFC) circuit; at least one processor operatively connected to the NFC circuit; and memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to: receive, via the NFC circuit from an external electronic device, an NFC application identifier (ID), identify a subscriber identity module (SIM) profile, from among a plurality of SIM profiles, that corresponds to the NFC application ID, and perform, via the NFC circuit, an NFC communication with the external electronic device based on the identified SIM profile.

An electronic device comprising:
- a near field communication (NFC) circuit;
- at least one processor operatively connected to the NFC circuit;
- and
- memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to:
- receive, via the NFC circuit from an external electronic device, an NFC application identifier (ID),
- identify a subscriber identity module (SIM) profile, from among a plurality of SIM profiles, that corresponds to the NFC application ID, and
- perform, via the NFC circuit, an NFC communication with the external electronic device based on the identified SIM profile.
A method comprising:
- receiving, from an external electronic device, a near field communication (NFC) application identifier (ID);
- identifying a subscriber identity module (SIM) profile, from among a plurality of SIM profiles, that corresponds to the NFC application ID;
