I am in Colombia I left my SIM card with a family member, But it is tough to bother every time I need a security code. I was thinking about an eSIM, I just bought a phone it is a (red Magic 9s pro) but I am not sure if it has that feature, I remember a long time ago that I was checking on the page of public mobile ( I was not able to find it again) and it said that my phone is not supported by an eSIM. But my girlfriend has an (iPhone13) I think that It could work.

hi @Nightmare12334 eSIM won't help with your situation as the problem with PM is it does not have roaming service in Columbia 

if the 2FA you need is only PM, click the option to ask it to send via email

for other 2FA, you need to ask those sites to change to send to email or authenticator app.

You can login online on a computer and click on Resend Code or Didn't Receive Code and have the 2FA code sent to your email to access your account while you are in Columbia.

The ZTE Nubia Red Magic 9S Pro is compatible with PM but it only have dual SIM and no eSIM. In my opinion the SIM is more flexible since you can pop the SIM out of one phone and pop it into your new phone.

@Nightmare12334 Not sure what are you exactly planning to do with eSIM, but PM service won't work in Columbia. They don't offer roaming outside of North America. 
Are you not able to get the security code via calling? If yes, set up fongo account and forward incoming calls to fongo number. If texting is the only option, use Google Messages through web browser. You will need to somehow scan the QR code from your phone. Once you do that, you can leave your phone on in Canada and let your family member know to just charge it when it runs out.
