Suica (“watermelon card”) is East Japan’s iconic IC pass for trains, buses, and retail taps.

Card flavours

  • Physical Suica / Welcome Suica for visitors
  • Mobile Suica on supported phones

Tips

Coverage is strongest in Greater Tokyo; other IC brands usually interchange, but wrong-area fares may need adjustment. Bind Mobile Suica in four steps via Wallet / Suica apps when your handset qualifies.
