In the communication package you get two products: the Japan Travel SIM and the Brastel Card.
With the SIM card you get the data service to use your smartphone or tablet, and the Brastel Card allows you to place calls by using the My 050 app.
As an option you can also get a phone number in Japan allowing you to receive incoming calls, and you may even continue using it after returning to your home country, with other SIM cards or Wi-Fi.
In addition, you can add extra data on the Japan Travel SIM card with credits from the Brastel Card in case you run out of the initial 6GB or 15GB of data.

Available recharge plans
The SIM will initially expire 30 days from the usage start date. Each data recharge will extend the SIM's validity until the end of the third month after the recharge. Upon the first recharge, the initial data provided will be extended to the end of the second month after the start of use. Additionally, any remaining data from your previous top-up (excluding the initial SIM card data) will be extended upon a subsequent recharge, remaining valid until the end of the fifth month after adding this new data. The SIM becomes invalid if no additional recharge is made before the final expiration date. Click here to see an example.

The example above illustrates how the validity of the SIM is extended when the SIM is recharged. For the sake of this example, we will assume no data is consumed.
- A 6 GB SIM starts being used from January 1. The 6 GB will at first expire on January 30.
- A recharge of 2 GB is made on January 20. The added 2 GB will expire on April 30. The expiration date for the initially granted 6 GB is extended to March 31.
- If a recharge of 5 GB is made on April 10, the added 5 GB will expire on July 31. The expiration date of the 2 GB from the first recharge will be pushed back only until June 30 (the fifth month after January, the month when they were added to the SIM).
- If no further recharges are made until July 31, the SIM becomes invalid after this date.
