My wife dropped her old S8 into water.
It is dead.
She was about to replace it anyway so a new S21FE is on it's way.

What are the chances her current SIM card will work?
Is there a risk that putting it in the new phone could damage that?

It would make the process easier and quicker if it worked

Thanks in advance

It should not affect the SIM card
Though with a SIM card that I'm assuming is a few years old.
Be advisable to get a newer version SIM card anyway.
Your network provider should be able to furnish you with a new one.
But the old one should still work
