Methods and apparatus are provided for transferring policy information between a first network and a home network of a User Equipment (UE) accessing Edge Hosting Environment (EHE) in the first network. One method implemented in a first session management function (SMF) in the first network (VPLMN) comprises sending to a second SMF in the home network a request for a Packet Data Unit (PDU) session establishment for the UE indicating that the first SMF requests authorization for home routed session breakout (HR-SBO) for the PDU session and receiving from the second SMF a response message including one or more offload identifiers (IDs), each ID of the one or more offload IDs identifies one or more offload policies for Edge Computing (EC) services, to be applied at the first network. Transferring the offload policies themselves is not always required, only IDs are used.
