The present disclosure relates to a communication technique for converging IoT technology with a 5G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate beyond a 4G system, and a system therefor. The present disclosure may be applied to an intelligent service (for example, a smart home, a smart building, a smart city, a smart car or connected car, health care, digital education, retail business, a security and safety-related service, etc.) on the basis of 5G communication technology and IoT-related technology. The present invention proposes a method and an apparatus for enabling inter-device profile movement using only two devices without separately carrying out identity verification or ID authentication verification. A method may be provided, according to one embodiment of the present invention, which comprises the steps of: receiving an input for moving a first profile installed in a first terminal; deleting the first profile on a first eUICC; generating, for data including first profile information, digital signature data of the first eUICC; and displaying data including the first profile information and the corresponding digital signature data as a QR code on a screen of the first terminal.
