The product is brand new; however, please note that we will conduct a test after your order and prior to shipping. Thank you for your understanding. Make your travel in Japan easier with your own Suica Prepaid IC Card . Due to the global semiconductor shortage, Suica card issuance has been paused in Japan, making it a smart choice to secure yours now—avoid the hassle of unavailable cards at Tokyo stations and beyond . Your Suica comes pre-loaded with ¥500, ready for your next adventure. Plus, it includes a ¥500 deposit, which can be fully refunded at JR East stations, ensuring peace of mind as you explore . Please Note: Currently, foreign residents cannot purchase this standard Suica card within Japan. Only the “Welcome Suica,” intended for short-term visitors, is available for purchase. Therefore, if you’re planning for extended use, it’s recommended to secure your Suica in advance. The Suica card generally has no expiration date and can be used for a long time. As long as you occasionally recharge it, it remains active and usable. However, if 10 years pass from the last usage date, the card will automatically become invalid. In this case, any remaining balance can be refunded at a JR service counter. Even if you don’t use it frequently, recharging periodically will keep it active. Why Suica? Simple Travel: Say goodbye to ticket machines. Just tap your Suica at the gate, and the fare is automatically deducted, making your journey seamless ➡️ . Beyond Trains: Suica is not just for trains; use it on subways, buses, and more. Check the Suica Map for all the places where it’s accepted . E-Money Convenience: From buying a drink at a vending machine to a newspaper at a station kiosk, pay effortlessly with your Suica. It’s the ultimate travel companion for a smooth Japan experience . Easy Top-Ups: Recharge your Suica as needed, up to ¥20,000, at machines displaying the Suica logo. Remember, cash is required for top-ups—credit cards are not accepted . Hassle-Free Refunds: Done with your Suica? You can return it at any JR East station. Note that Suica cards from the Tokyo Monorail or other non-JR East issuers may have different return policies. Regardless, you’ll receive your ¥500 deposit plus any unused funds . Enjoy the convenience and make your Japanese journey unforgettable with Suica .
