Depends on how you buy it. In most cases it will be unlocked when you choose a carrier and you can even specify a sim free unlocked model that has no specific carrier.

Will my new iPhone be unlocked?
Nearly all iPhone models sold on apple.com and at the Apple Store are unlocked. This means they aren’t tied to a single carrier. The exception is when you buy an iPhone with an AT&T Installment Plan. It will be tied — or locked — to AT&T.
Only if you purchase one that is fully unlocked. If they are models associated with specific providers, then they come locked to that carrier and contain an appropriate SIM. If your current provider is one of the four used by Apple, then buying one locked to the carrier you already use should work with your SIM.
