How to Export Contacts to a SIM Card on a Samsung Galaxy

Samsung Galaxy phones may let you export contacts to a SIM, but the route varies by One UI version and the SIM copy can omit details.
Special offer. See more information about Outbyte and uninstall instructions. Please review EULA and Privacy policy.

You can export contacts to a SIM card on many Samsung Galaxy phones from the Contacts app, but the menu depends on your One UI version and device. For One UI 7 and newer, start at Contacts > More options > Settings > Export contacts. SIM copies may keep only names and phone numbers, so use a full backup or Smart Switch if you need to move an entire contact book.

A Samsung France example updated 25 November 2025 shows this export route on a Galaxy S24 FE running One UI 8.0 and Android 16. In that example, the user selects all or chosen contacts, taps Done, chooses the SIM destination, exports, and confirms. This is a documented example, not a guarantee that every Galaxy exposes the same option. Samsung France’s Galaxy S24 FE example

Use the older Contacts menu if your phone does not show that path

On older software, Samsung’s documented route is through contact management. Depending on the phone, the menu may be a three-line icon at the upper left or a three-dot icon at the upper right; names and placement differ by OS and model.

What a SIM export keeps—and what it may lose

A SIM copy is a basic contact transfer, not a complete backup. Samsung warns that the name and phone number may be copied while other contact information may be lost; names or numbers that are too long may be cut off. Samsung’s SIM export warning

SIM storage is limited, and Samsung’s support information does not give a numeric contact capacity for this procedure. If your contact book contains more entries than the SIM can hold, the full set may not fit. Samsung recommends Smart Switch for transferring a complete contact book when changing phones.

Check whether you are exporting or moving contacts

Exporting or copying leaves the contacts in their original location as well as on the SIM. Moving contacts removes them from the original location. Because menu wording varies, read the confirmation screen and make sure it says Export or otherwise clearly indicates copying before proceeding if you want to retain the originals.
