Important Things to Know After Purchasing Your eSIM for Japan

Updated: 2024-09-30 11:17:42

Congratulations on purchasing or considering an eSIM for Japan! As you prepare for your trip, it’s important to be fully informed about how to make the most of your eSIM. In this guide, we’ll go over three key things you need to know before or after buying your eSIM for Japan, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted experience.

Staying connected is crucial during your travels, and with CDJapan Rental's eSIM products, you'll have reliable data coverage across Japan. But before you activate and start using your eSIM, here are three important things to keep in mind.

1. Don’t Delete Your Installed eSIM Before the End of Your Trip

One common mistake eSIM users make is deleting their eSIM profile after installing it, especially if they are troubleshooting or switching between different data plans. It’s crucial to remember that once you delete your eSIM, it cannot be recovered. Unlike a physical SIM card, which you can simply reinsert, an eSIM profile will be completely removed from your device when deleted.

If you accidentally delete your eSIM, you will need to purchase a new one, which could interrupt your connectivity during your trip. For this reason, we strongly advise keeping the eSIM installed on your phone until your travels in Japan are complete.

Pro Tip: If you need to switch to another network temporarily (e.g., using WiFi), disable the eSIM instead of deleting it. This allows for easy switching back when needed, without requiring reinstallation.

2. Set Up Your eSIM Only After Arriving in Japan

It's important to set up your eSIM only after arriving in Japan. Many travelers are tempted to activate their eSIM before the trip to ensure connectivity, but doing so can start the validity countdown earlier than expected.

The moment you activate your eSIM, the data plan’s validity period starts. If activated before your arrival in Japan, you might lose valuable usage time. That’s why we recommend waiting until you arrive in Japan to complete the setup process.

Our CDJapan Rental's eSIM products are easy to install and come with clear instructions. You can activate your data plan in minutes by scanning a QR code, giving you immediate access to mobile data as soon as you arrive in Japan.

3. No Refunds After eSIM Activation

One critical thing to know before purchasing or activating an eSIM is that refunds are not available once the eSIM is activated. This is because the eSIM, as a digital product, is considered "used" after activation, even if you have not connected to the internet or if your device turns out to be incompatible.

To avoid any issues, it’s important to check if your phone supports eSIM technology before purchasing. You can find a comprehensive list of compatible devices on our website. Keep in mind that even if your phone is not compatible, or if you experience technical issues, we are unable to provide refunds once the eSIM has been activated.

Pro Tip: Be sure to confirm compatibility before activating the eSIM.
