I Will face the same soon.

There is a guide or something to help you with that?

I know that is just a simple task, but it is a really long chain of stuff to do and prevent yourself being at the other side of your services

I lost my SIM shortly after I moved and never got a replacement. I advocate against phone numbers since then :)

My best advice is to find alternatives and don't depend on anything that depends on a phone number. Things can ALWAYS turn wrong.

It’s probably trivial for the average HN reader, the key is to do it before you move. Otherwise it can be difficult since Google Voice is not available in most countries. (Will need a VPN). FYI iMessage is real wonky that I’ve removed my phone number.

Should be obvious but you will lose your phone service, so you want to time it close to when you are leaving.
