Welcome.

It may be that the card simply needs removing, cleaning and reinserting.
If no go, it may be a bad SIM. Your carrier can check it.
It may also be that the phone's SIM reader is faulty.

If you can, try the SIM in another phone, or a friend's SIM in your phone.

You also need.to check.if the phone is unlocked to your phone network. Invalid card could show if the phone is locked to another network.
