I need to know any problems I might have getting a SIM card in another country and swapping it w current card in my iPhones (4 and 5).
Need both phone and internet access while there. My carrier has no service (verizon)
Also assume all apps and data on phones will still work?
iPhone 5, iOS 7, Also need same info for iPhone 4
If your iphone is locked to Verizon, then you can't use another carrier's sim card.

The GSM section of your Verizon iPhone 5 is unlocked and will work with any nano-SIM card.
Not all iPhone features such as FaceTime, iMessage, visual voicemail, etc, may work if using a carrier that doesn't support iPhones. If using an unofficial carrier, you may need to enter APN settings to get cell data. LTE may not be compatable.

No. Verizon CDMA is locked (no SIM used for that) but yhe Verizon iPhone 5, 5C, and 5s have an unlocked GSM section. Not so with the 4S
Ah... unfortunately, I have a 4s and am stuck using Verizon's wandering option in other countries.
Verizon will unlock the GSM section of your 4S if you qualify.
I need info on how to use a SIM card from another country to have service on iPhone 4 & 5 while traveling
