I have a iPhone 12 that I will be taking to Sweden, Copenhagen, Norway, To be able to use data for directions, addresses,
No phone calls. Is there a store at the Stockholm airport where I can purchase a sims chip? or what are the name of stores in Stockholm to purchase? (My many trips to Italy this is what I did must purchased a nanochip for data at $25 US dollars and worked great) again not going to use the iPhone for calls, only data, texting and messengers, photos. Thanks

You mention nano sim or a physical sim in the title but e sim in the body. Assuming you want an E SIM for just data look at Airalo. Many forum members have reported using their services and that it worked well.

Ah Menlo Park….grew up nearby…..long ago when it was the Santa Clara Valley, the Valley of the Heart’s Delight….not Silicon Valley….
Anyway …. Have you investigated WhatsApp? I have an iPhone 11 and when in the UK I use it for calling back to the US. Just need for others to have the app on their phones as well.

You are putting an eSim and a sim chip together but they are not the same.
Just so you don’t confuse a clerk at a store, if you want a small sim inserted in your phone - that is a SIM card.
If you want just data , you can buy an eSim (meaning there is nothing physical). You can buy it and set it up before you leave home. There is quite a bit of info here on how to do that.
