Copy contacts from a SIM card
If you have contacts stored on your SIM card, you can copy them to your phone.
Make sure your SIM card is inserted.
1. Tap People.
2. Tap > Settings > Import from SIM.
Tip: If you have a dual SIM phone, you can select the SIM card from which you want to
import contacts. Tap SIM 1 or SIM 2. Dual SIM is not supported by all phones. For
availability, go to www.microsoft.com/mobile/support/wpfeatures.
If you have multiple accounts, you can tap the account name and choose the account you
want to import your contacts to. The default account is Outlook.
3. Tap next. To import all your contacts, tap import.
Tip: To select individual contacts, tap clear, and use the check boxes.
You can’t save contacts to your new SIM card. Instead, they are kept safe in your account.
