There isn't a way to do this, at least a normal way that won't get your app rejected. Why do you want to do this? Contact lists on newer devices are never saved on sim cards anymore generally, and instead transferred using web services (such as iCloud and Google).

You cant do that . AddressBook Api is for accessing (read/write) the contacts which stored in iPhone . There is no way to access the sim contacts at least by using the public APIs.

Not possible. The closest you will get to that is using the Address book framework. https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/ContactData/Conceptual/AddressBookProgrammingGuideforiPhone/Introduction.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40007744
