A method and system for implementing a smart card remote operation are provided. A mobile phone gateway, used for communication between a remote management server and a smart card, is set up in advance on a mobile phone. The mobile phone gateway communicates with a UICC by using a BIP protocol, sets up/closes a channel according to an instruction of the UICC, receives/transmits data, and is capable of synchronizing channel states. The remote management server monitors, in a sever mode, a local port by using a TCP/IP data stack, and provides an HTTP/HTTPS protocol access service. The remote management server transmits, as a client, a command and data to the local port. After a data packet is forwarded by the gateway to the UICC and is processed by an SCWS, the gateway carries out data inspection of a certain level and control encapsulation on a response of the UICC.
