Not support SIM card

I have iPhone 7 and unfortunately, it does not support SIM cards for some time.

I don't have any telecommunication coverage, I am from Iran and I can't afford to change the phone now(Considering the low salary I receive and the low value of my country's currency

1$=450000 Rials)

Model:

A1660

FCC ID: BCG-E3085A

IC:579C-E3085A

Please suggest a solution to my problem

iPhone 7, iOS 15

Remove and reinsert the SIM card.

If it doesn't help visit your carrier, maybe the SIM card is damaged, ask for a replaced (new) card. Normally it is free.

Ask also to check if the SIM tray is bent, as even a tiny misalignment can cause the SIM card to not fully connect with the internal contacts in your iPhone.
