First, see this.
So you are preparing for the travel to Japan and are looking forward to enjoy the trip. But at one point, did you think on how to contact your loved ones back home when you are travelling in Japan? If yes, continue reading.
Buying a regular phone in Japan requires you to have a Residence in Japan which will not be given to people travelling as tourists or people having visa less than 6 months. To assist those people, Several Japan companies offer rental phones.
The Japanese rental phones are a good, simple option but at a premium rate. The cheapest rate I know when I wrote this for visitors is 250 JPY/day by JAL ABC on the other hand, a resident can get at as cheap as 900 JPY/month. There are some low cost services like b-mobile, who give SIM Cards that can be used in unlocked phones. But these SIM Cards are generally data only.
You can google for "Japan Phone Rental" to get an idea of the services and rates. I am not going to list the services because they keep changing from time to time and one must not have wrong information if they are reading this blog long after it is created.
If you think that you could not find a good option, you can e-mail me. I will search for you, call the services, inquire and try to find a good option for you.
