You can use the Japan Unlimited SIM in any unlocked phone that takes a physical SIM card and supports the 4G Band 1 (2100MHz) frequency. For more information about frequency please visit our support page Frequencies Used – Mobal Japan Unlimited Support

iPhone 14 & 15 devices purchased in the USA don't accept physical SIM cards; so are incompatible with our service. All other iPhone models will work fine, as well as iPhone 14 & 15 devices that are bought outside the USA.

Note: There are currently known issues with the Google Pixel handset range that primarily appear to affect the non-Japanese versions of these devices. Reports indicate that this issue can lead to frequent connection drops / intermittent issues with certain services and so (as we cannot take responsibility for device issues of this kind) we would recommend that you avoid these particular handsets when using our services.

What does "unlocked" mean?
If your device is "unlocked", it means that it can work with a SIM card from any network. If your device is "locked", it is restricted to work only on your regular carrier's network. Your device must be "unlocked" to work with the Japan Unlimited SIM.

How do you know if your phone is unlocked?
If you purchased your device as an "unlocked" or "SIM Free" device from a retailer such as Amazon, then your device is almost certainly already unlocked. This means that it will work with our SIM card. If you purchased your device directly from your carrier (AT&T, T-Mobile, etc.), your device is probably locked and, therefore, it may not work with our SIM card. If you're still not sure whether or not your device is unlocked, simply contact the store where you purchased your device from.

My device is locked. What can I do?
If your device is locked, it may be possible to get it unlocked - simply ask your provider about this.

What Size Is the SIM Card?
Our SIM is multi-size to fit any device (Nano / Micro / Standard) – no need to worry about which SIM size you need.

Choose a plan from ¥1,650 per month when you activate your SIM.

Real Japanese Phone Number

All our Japan Unlimited plans come with a real 070, 080 or 090 Japanese phone number with cheap calls and texts (incoming calls and texts are free). A real number is essential in Japan if you’re working or studying. Some providers supply a ‘virtual’ number, but these aren’t accepted by many institutions.

" I arrived in Japan almost four months ago, and I had no idea how difficult it was going to be to get a mobile-phone service… Knowing that I can now get a SIM card without a termination fee ... is ideal for me "

Billing

For your first month of service, your monthly Plan fees will be pro-rated. For example, if you activate your eSIM/SIM on July 16th, you will be billed half of your regular monthly bill for the period from July 16th until July 31st. On August 1st, you will be billed in advance for the month of August. Going forward, you will be billed on the 1st of every calendar month until you choose to cancel your service.

Any chargeable calls and texts will also be billed to you on the 1st of the month.

You can view fully itemized statements detailing all of your charges in your online account - so you always know exactly what you are paying for!

We accept payments from all major credit/debit cards and Paypal. You can also pay your monthly fees by cash – see below.

payment options

Pay by Cash
If you are living and working in Japan, you may find that it’s not convenient to pay your bill long-term with your international Debit/Credit Card or PayPal account. Some international providers charge transaction fees – or you may not be keeping money in your international account.

Yes! You can collect your SIM from our convenient collection points at airports and cities around Japan – completely free of charge. Simply choose your pick-up point when you add your product to the shopping cart.

If you've ordered a Japan Unlimited Voice+Text+Data SIM, your phone number will be assigned once your SIM card has been activated. Once assigned we will send you an email containing your phone number as well as displaying it in your online Mobal MyAccount

All usage charges are fully itemized in your online account, so you always know exactly what you are paying for. Your log-in information will be emailed to you when you activate your service.

All of your charges are billed in Japanese Yen (JPY).

You can use the Japan Unlimited SIM in any unlocked phone that takes a physical SIM card and supports the 4G Band 1 (2100MHz) frequency.

iPhone 14 & 15 devices purchased in the USA don't accept physical SIM cards, so you'll need a Japan eSIM to use our service. All other iPhone models will work fine, as well as iPhone 14 & 15 devices that are bought outside the USA.

What does "unlocked" mean?
If your device is "unlocked", it means that it can work with a SIM card from any network. If your device is "locked", it is restricted to work only on your regular carrier's network. Your device must be "unlocked" to work with the Japan Unlimited SIM.

How do you know if your phone is unlocked?
If you purchased your device as an "unlocked" or "SIM Free" device from a retailer such as Amazon, then your device is almost certainly already unlocked. This means that it will work with our SIM card. If you purchased your device directly from your carrier (AT&T, T-Mobile, etc.), your device is probably locked and, therefore, it may not work with our SIM card. If you're still not sure whether or not your device is unlocked, simply contact the store where you purchased your device from.

My device is locked. What can I do?
If your device is locked, it may be possible to get it unlocked - simply ask your provider about this.

What Size Is the SIM Card?
Our SIM is multi-size to fit any device (Nano / Micro / Standard) – no need to worry about which SIM size you need.

Data is fast, free and and unlimited, you'll get 1GB, 5GB, 10GB or 30GB of fast 4G LTE data per month.

If you use up your entire monthly plan allowance, your data speed will be reduced to a maximum of 200 Kbps. These reduced speeds may not be sufficient for streaming music or video, but they will still allow activities such as web browsing, emailing, posting to social media, Whatsapp messaging, etc.

Your high speed data allowance will be reset on the 1st of each month.

Your voicemail service will be automatically set-up for you when you activate your SIM. Voicemail is easy to use! Simple instructions are included in your package.

Yes, the Japan Unlimited service supports SMS text messages.
Note, as with all SMS services, your messages can be delayed, corrupted or on occasion, fail to send. If your message is urgent, we would always recommend that you place a phone call rather than sending a text message.

Our Mobal Japan Unlimited SIM cards only work in Japan. They will not work in any other countries.

Some of our services support tethering/hotspot use, however, we cannot guarantee that this feature will work with all devices/operating systems.
To find out more about tethering please visit our support page Creating a Hotspot / Tethering – Mobal Support.

Yes! Using VoIP services for calling and instant messaging can be a great way to keep in touch rather than paying extra for traditional voice calls & texts.

It is a requirement of Japanese law that we must collect ID from users of Japan Voice SIM cards to prevent fraudulent usage. If you are picking up your SIM in Japan, you can simply show your passport when you collect. You must present your full valid current passport, not a copy or scan.

If you choose delivery, you must upload your ID before shipping. Check out our Shipping & Pick-up Options to find the right choice for you.

Be assured that we are committed to protecting your security for the lifetime of your service with us. Your ID information is fully encrypted and stored in a secure environment.

You can use Mobal Japan SIMs in any unlocked device that takes a physical SIM card and supports the 4G Band 1 (2100MHz) frequency.

Google Pixel Users:
With our Japan Tourist Data Only SIM Cards, there are currently known issues with the Google Pixel 7 and above handset range that primarily appear to affect the non-Japanese versions of these devices. Reports indicate that this issue can lead to frequent connection drops / intermittent issues with certain services and so (as we cannot take responsibility for device issues of this kind) we would recommend that you avoid these particular handsets when using our services.

iPhone 14 & 15 Users:
iPhone 14 & 15 devices purchased in the USA don't accept physical SIM cards, so you'll need a Japan eSIM to use our service. All other iPhone models will work fine, as well as iPhone 14 & 15 devices that are bought outside the USA.

For more information about frequency please visit our support pages for Voice SIMs and Data Only SIMs.

Profits Go To Charity

With a Mobal SIM, you don't just travel the world, you make it a better place!
tony smith Mobal chairman

It all started with one man's desire to make calls while traveling...

Mobal was the brainchild of Chairman Tony Smith. As a lifelong international traveler, he was constantly frustrated when trying to keep in touch with family, friends & business contacts on his many trips overseas.

On the back of the success of the international cell phone service he has established a number of charities with a desire to change the world.

In February 2016, Tony set up Seibo, a registered Japanese non-profit organisation with a simple aim: to feed every hungry child in the world a hot meal in school!. School feeding carries many benefits - education, nutrition and health, gender equality, food security, poverty alleviation - in one single meal. The world would be changed if every hungry child in it were to receive a meal at school.

Mobal guarantees that the majority of profits go to its charities, so with your Mobal SIM, you don't just travel the world, you make it a better place!

testimonial

" I was very glad to have located mobal. Nowadays, we are so hooked up on the internet for news, facebook, instagram and whatsapp etc. I would recommend anyone to Mobal if you can't live without internet :) "
Ngo, Singapore

testimonial

" Purchased a Mobal Data SIM for my iPhone while on a cruise around Japan. The SIM arrived here in the U.S. very quickly, so I had it with me to install once I landed in Tokyo. It worked perfectly in all the Japan ports of call. Was able to text, use internet/Google Maps/Google Translate and send/receive emails with no issues. "

testimonial

" I'm a digital nomad and I need to be connected most of the time for my work.
But internet in Japan is really expensive. Imagine 3000 Yen for 3GB and 3000 Yen for a 2GB Recharge! (Don't bother checking. It's the cheapest!) On average, I spend close to 10,000 Yen just on Internet alone.
I don't know about you, but that could've been money spent on other things (like a Tsukiji Foodie Crawl!).
But with Mobal, I don't have to break the bank while I work and explore Japan!
Thank you Mobal! "
