E.118 is an international standard that defines the international telecommunication charge card, for use in payphones. It also defines the Integrated Circuit Card Identifier (ICCID), which is used in Subscriber Identity Modules (SIMs, including SIM cards and eSIMs). The standard was first developed in 1988 by what became the Standardization Sector of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU-T) with several revisions having been published since then.
