Yes — the Pixel 9 supports eSIM. Before buying, confirm that eSIM is enabled on your unit and that it is not locked to another carrier. eJugaar provides data only; a supported model name does not replace those checks.
What is particular about the Pixel 9
On a Pixel, eSIM is Android's own feature, so setup is most direct here — the "Download a SIM instead?" path in Settings.

What this means for a non-PTA Pixel 9
eJugaar provides roaming data, not a Pakistani local SIM. A manufacturer’s eSIM listing establishes hardware support; the exact variant, carrier unlock and current service conditions still need to be checked before purchase.
It is data only. Calls, SMS and a Pakistani number are not included. Bank OTPs need a separate working SMS number; buying this data profile does not restore an inactive line. Internet calling apps use the data connection.

Check your phone in one minute
Dial *#06# on your Pixel 9. If an EID appears alongside the IMEI, it helps identify eSIM hardware. Also check the exact regional model, Add eSIM controls and carrier unlock. A missing EID on this screen needs a settings or manufacturer check.
One more thing: the phone must not be carrier-locked (JV). For another provider’s eSIM, confirm unlock with the original carrier before buying, especially on a second-hand or imported set. How to tell a JV phone from a non-PTA one.
How to install an eSIM on a Google phone
Google Pixel — 6 steps. Follow the guide for your phone's software version.
- Check compatibility and connect to WiFi
- Settings → Network & internet → SIMs → Add SIM
- Use the issuer QR or manual details
- Enable the line and select it for Mobile data
- Allow roaming for eJugaar data
- Test a small webpage with WiFi off
Your QR is sent after payment verification and eSIM processing. Manual payments are reviewed daily, 10 AM–10 PM PKT; submissions outside those hours wait for review. Same-phone QR import depends on the phone and software. With every QR we also send the SM-DP+ address and activation code, which can be typed in by hand. See the full install guide.
Plans
Plans start at Rs 380 and are all data-only. Validity starts the first time you go online, not on the day you buy — so buying ahead of a trip or a need costs you nothing.
