My Verizon chip is not registering on an international phone.

I bought a Factory Unlock Samsung Note 8 out of US and was working well with the chip from that Country, when I arrived in US and I put my Verizon chip on it and I tried to make a call or use the internet, says that is not registered on network.

What do I need to do to make the phone work here in US with my Verizon chip please?

No LTE band 13. No CDMA radios. That model isn't compatible with the Verizon Wireless network.

You could try a GSM carrier like AT&T or T-Mobile.
