If your carrier is an Apple Authorized Reseller, you can buy it at one of their shop, or, as you said, you can buy it from Apple, then (if your need it) ask your carrier for help activating it.

The procedure to transfer data/apps/media from an old iOS device to a new one is quite easy.

See this article:--> Transfer data from your previous iOS or iPadOS device to your new iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support, and choose your preferred (doable) method.
