An electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device includes a wireless communication circuitry, a processor operatively connected with the wireless communication circuitry, and a memory, operatively connected with the processor, storing configured network slice selection assistance information (NSSAI) and an application. The memory stores instructions, when executed, causing the processor to, when the electronic device is booted, identify a single-NSSAI (s-NSSAI) candidate group including at least one s-NSSAI, based on configuration information of the application, determine a specified number of s-NSSAIs among at least one s-NSSAI included in the configured NSSAI as a first requested NSSAI based on the number of s-NSSAIs included in the configured NSSAI and the s-NSSAI candidate group, and transmit a first registration request message including the first requested NSSAI, via the wireless communication circuitry.
