The Mobal Japan Unlimited Voice+Data SIM isn’t the cheapest option, but the combination of worldwide shipping and the killer feature of having an actual Japanese phone number with voice-calling capabilities is a winner.
Features:
- Buy now, activate later
- 7GB of data at super-fast 4G LTE speeds
- Unlimited data at slower 200 kbps
- Real Japanese phone number
- Text/SMS, so you can download and use Japan apps
This is the ONLY SIM available to temporary visitors that has a real Japanese number with an 070, 080 or 090 prefix. This isn’t an “050” number or a dodgy VOIP number, it’s the real thing, so if you get in an accident, or need emergency assistance, this is the SIM you want.
No one plans to get in a car accident, but we’ve personally come across visitors who have crashed their rental car and were unable to even call their rental car company because they didn’t have a voice-capable SIM.
