Transferring iPhone to European owner

I originally bought my iPhone at the Apple store. I now want to give it to my daughter who lives in Germany. Am I correct in believing that the phone is unlocked so that all she has to do is to insert her European SIM card in the phone to have it work on her account?

If your phone is unlocked, yes she should only have to insert her SIM card.
