During the setting up of my new iPhone XR it wants a sim, whenever I insert a sim it says invalid sim, while the sim is active as well as valid when I am using it on another iPhone, I tried multiple sims but I receive the same message.

Then it's possible the sim slot has an issue. Take it to Apple for diagnostics and repair. If you have tried SIM cards from different carriers and non work, then that's a very distinct possibility.


Also, make sure you are inserting the SIM card the correct way in the Sim Tray.
