Collection: Japan eSIM

5 products

Japan is the trip Australians plan twice — once for the snow, once for everything else. Powder chasers book Niseko and Hakuba months ahead, while Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka anchor the classic first-timer loop. Whichever Japan you're planning, you'll run the trip from your phone — Google Maps through the maze of Shinjuku Station, translation apps for menus, shinkansen timetables, that six-seat ramen bar a mate swore by.

Why an eSIM for Japan

  • No airport SIM queue. Your eSIM arrives by email as a QR code straight after checkout — nothing to collect at Narita, Haneda or Kansai.
  • Keep your Aussie number. Dual SIM keeps your Australian SIM active alongside, so calls and bank SMS codes still reach you.
  • Prepaid from $3.45 AUD. Pay upfront, no contracts, no roaming bill shock waiting at home.
  • Stay in control. The ESIMStore app (iPhone and Android) shows live data usage, and top-ups are a couple of taps away.

How it works

Pick a Japan plan and check out — your eSIM lands in your inbox as a QR code. Scan it before you fly, while you're still on Wi-Fi at home. Your data activates when you land, on 4G/5G partner networks where available. New to eSIMs? Our step-by-step guide covers the whole process.

Stopping elsewhere in the region? Australians often pair Japan with Hong Kong & Macau or China, and a regional Asia eSIM covers multi-country itineraries with one plan. Whichever you choose, the ESIMStore app keeps your usage in plain sight.

FAQs

Will my iPhone work with an eSIM in Japan?

Yes — most recent iPhones support eSIM, as do current Samsung and Google Pixel phones. Just check your phone is carrier-unlocked before you buy. Your Japan eSIM sits alongside your Australian SIM, so your usual number keeps working.

When should I install my Japan eSIM?

Scan the QR code before you fly, while you're on home Wi-Fi. Your data activates when you land in Japan, so you're online at the arrivals gate, ready to look up the train into the city.

Can I top up if I run out of data in Japan?

Yes — top-ups are available, so running low mid-trip is never a drama. The ESIMStore app shows your live usage so you'll see it coming, and our Australian-based support team can help if you get stuck.
