Sim card question

What information will I lose on my phone when I put a new Sim card in? My phone carrier is asking me to put a new Sim card in my phone. Will I lose my contacts, photos, texts, passwords, apps?

iPhone 11, iOS 15

None, except for contacts you may have put onto it from a non-Apple phone. To preserve these, click here and follow the instructions.

In any case, you should back the iPhone up.

You won't lose them unless you encounter an unrelated issue. Back your data up.

Ok. So if I’ve always had an iPhone. I should be ok and not lose my contacts, you’re saying?
