Abstract

Embodiments of the present subject matter provide a local profile management method, an embedded universal integrated circuit card, and a terminal. The embedded universal integrated circuit card (eUICC) includes a primary platform and at least one installed bundle. The primary platform is a hardware platform. Each bundle includes at least one profile and an operating system (OS). The primary platform includes a processing module, which is configured to: receive a first message sent by a local profile assistant (LPA), where the first message is an operation instruction entered by a user; and separately send a second message to at least one OS corresponding to the at least one bundle, where the second message is used by the at least one OS to perform a corresponding operation. Local management of profiles of different OSs is implemented by using the processing module disposed on the primary platform of the eUICC.
