　　6月27日，日本通信運營商NTT DoCoMo宣佈與中國移動在海外通信服務領域開展合作。雙方將在可遠程寫入簽約用戶信息的「eSIM」使用的系統領域開展合作，使在中日兩國間進出口産品的法人客戶能省去按國家設定通信服務的麻煩。DoCoMo預計該業務將得到農業機械和工業機械領域客戶的使用。

　　此前，要想利用「eSIM」，需要DoCoMo與海外通信運營商之間使用相同系統。通過本次合作，即使系統種類不同，雙方服務商也能交換利用通信服務的設備之間的信息。

　　例如，利用NTT DoCoMo服務的日本農機企業向中國出口産品時，此前需要在出口時更換寫入了簽約用戶信息的IC晶片「SIM卡」。通過此次合作，客戶即使不更換SIM卡也能利用中國的通信服務，能夠高效推進「物聯網（IoT）」。

BEIJING, CHINA / TOKYO, JAPAN, June 27, 2017 --- China Mobile Communications Corporation and NTT DOCOMO, INC. announced today that they have jointly developed the world's first multi-vendor embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM) system within their commercial environments based on the GSMA's Remote Provisioning Architecture for Embedded UICC3.1 (GSMAv3.1) standard.

The system enables interoperability between the two carriers' eSIM systems, which adopt different vendors' subscription management platforms. Previously, for different carriers to reprogram the same eSIM, they had to adopt an eSIM system of one vendor. The new multi-vendor eSIM system announced today incorporates subscription management platforms of two different vendors - one by G+D Mobile Security that DOCOMO has adopted and the other by GEMALTO, which China Mobile has adopted.

China Mobile and DOCOMO have been jointly developing IoT technologies and related business based on the Strategic Cooperation Framework Agreement (SCFA). The new multi-vendor eSIM system is one of the results of this agreement.

Going forward, China Mobile and DOCOMO will continue developing services to enable corporate customers' products exported from Japan to China, such as automobiles, industrial equipment and agricultural machines, to smoothly switch from a Japanese carrier to Chinese carrier without replacing their SIMs.

The new multi-vendor eSIM system for IoT will be demonstrated at China Mobile's booth during Mobile World Congress Shanghai 2017 from June 28 to July 1.
