I have iPhone and travelling to Japan - do I need a different SIM card!

[Haleyj]

I have an  iphone 14 on a sky contract, I am travelling to Japan. Do I need to purchase a SIM card and if so does anyone have any suggestions which one I get? Also will

my phone work on the WiFi there! Thanks

Hi @Haleyj  it will be very expensive to use your sky sim in Japan. You could buy a local one and use it when there or you could just try and rely on free WiFi, depends what you plan on doing there ?

WiFi is an international standard, so yes.

Obviously most (if not all) local wireless hotspots will have their landing page text, sign-up procedure and terms & conditions in Japanese, which may be an obstacle to actually using them.
