If the error you see is that the SIM is not supported, it means the iPhone is locked to a carrier other than the one you are trying to use the SIM for. You will need to determine what carrier the iPhone is locked to and see if they provide unlocking services and if you qualify.

Only the carrier that has the lock on the iPhone can unlock it. Apple does not unlock iPhones.
