Common questions
Do Japan eSIM plans include calls and SMS?
None of the Japan plans in this import include a phone number, calls, or SMS. Messaging apps use the data allowance.
Can I use a hotspot in Japan?
10 plans say hotspot or tethering is allowed. Others don’t say, so the Hotspot filter only keeps the ones that do.
When does a Japan eSIM activate?
Activation rules aren’t stated on every plan. Install on Wi-Fi, then turn on data roaming only for the travel line after you land.
Does my phone support eSIM?
iPhone XR and later support eSIM, except models sold in mainland China. Many recent Galaxy and Pixel phones do too, if they are unlocked. Use the compatibility checker and look for Add eSIM in settings.
