In this article, I will explain how to get Suica and how to use it to enjoy your trip or your life in Japan!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to get Suica<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Firstly, described as above, Suica was originally a JR card, so Suica can be bought at JR station.
Also other transportation companies like Metro in Tokyo, PASMO can be obtained. And around in Osaka, ICOCA.
The appearance is different, however, nowadays, they are all the same system.
But Suica has a Smartphone app and can be associated with your credit card, I recommended to choose Suica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At JR station, you can buy Suica from the ticket vendor or the station office named “\u307f\u3069\u308a\u306e\u7a93\u53e3”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In June 2024, sales of the new SUICA have been suspended due to a shortage of semiconductors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now you can charge in Suica and enter the station trough the ticket gate touching the sencer by your card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
