You need to have Apple perform diagnostics on your iPhone. It can be done in person at an Apple Retail Store or at an Apple Authorized Service Provider. You can also contact Apple Support and request remote diagnostics.

I had same Issue, when first time buy iPhone 15 Pro Max, NFC is working well, but after 4 months later, it's stop working. I already bring it to Apple Service Provider, they said hardware is fine, the problem is on the software is crashed, so they repaired the software and NFC works again my iPhone state is new (it's cost USD15 to repair) and need to install everything again (So Annoying) , but Today (one months after repair) my iPhone NFC stop working again. i really don't have any idea why is iPhone NFC is so fragile?
