    Sales of registered Suica cards will resume on September 1st!
    Check at stations when you visit Japan!

    Just one correction... the requirement to change the iPhone region to Japan was removed in 2022. You can keep the phone in it's original region.

    help me understand, but isn't there a shortage of Suica card, so they are temporary no longer issuing any new card? It has been this way I think almost a year ago, and there isn't new of when it will become available anytime soon. Unless I'm wrong. So I'm not sure what's the purpose of this recent video guide?

      Although the product is still in short supply,
      Currently, only Welcome Suica and Suica for children under 12 years old can be purchased at the airport.
      The method of charging is the same, so we hope you will find this information useful😀
      We will let you know when it becomes available for purchase at the station‼

      Welcome Suica is currently only available at airports.
      Please purchase at the special ticket vending machine at the airport station‼
      Once the shortage of semiconductors is resolved, it will be possible to purchase tickets outside of airports as well.
      In that case, you can also purchase them at the Japan Travel Center at Tokyo Station😁

    Does this work in rural areas? If I go to Japan I will focus on trips on rural railways; there are so many beautiful lines as you can see on TH-cam. I thought of a JR pass.

      no, you can use it anywhere fortunately. But, a little caveat, you can also charge your mobile suica in some ticket machines that provide an outside card placement by placing your phone (not the insert card type).

    Nice video, the SUICA cards are somewhat available again but the availability varies day to day... Luckily I already have a standard physical SUICA card...
    I have read that one can "inscribe" or register a blank standard SUICA card by imprinting his own name and register: this way one loses the chance to give it back and be refunded the 500 yen deposit, but, on the other hand the card validity is unlimited and, should it be lost, it could be re-issued with a small fee, finding into it the amount it had at the moment of loss...
    Do You know if it is possible to register that already owned "standard card" using the machines or asking to employees on JR dedicated offices? I'd like to make my "standard SUICA" become a "My SUICA"...

      I see that you have a SUICA card without a name😁
      It is possible to change a card with no name to a card with a name‼
      You will need to ask a station attendant at a station with a multi-function ticket machine or visit a Midori-no-Madoguchi (ticket counter)‼
      Please try it when you come to Japan👍
