Hi there good question - Welcome Suica Child is for children up to 12 years old. To purchase a Welcome Suica (Child) card, you'll need to provide the child's birth date and ID, such as a passport. A family member can also purchase the card for a child at any Ticket counter at any stations Or PASMO cards for kids can be purchased at Commuter Pass Issuing Offices - same documentation above required
How do I get the number of my Pasmo card? I purchased Shinkansen tickets and could only see the last 4 digits of my digital Pasmo so wasn’t able to link it.

Hi there Kathy, it depends on your itinerary, I would recommend plotting it in the JR PAss calculator - www.jrpass.com/farecalculator and seeing what it recommends I've also previously talked about it in detial. here - ruclips.net/video/d9BmvzWyfp0/видео.htmlsi=mBOaNzyy81lkfJUN Hope this helps!
Hi, no withdrawals with an apple wallet SUICA or even with the normal SUICA If you want withdrawals you'd need to check with your bank or get something like a Revolut card
thank you so much for this super helpful video! Two quick questions: so if I buy suica on my iphone today -- I guess it's good for tourists or whoever can buy on iphone? and how long is it good for? (travel is a few months away). Just wondering if it's got any sort of expiry.

The welcome suica vending machine, is it open 24/7?

I have a standard Pasmo card from my trip in 2016. Is this still valid, the information online is conflicting :(
It it should still work within a 10 year frame if I’m not wrong
can my old suica card bought like 4-5 years ago be used in Tokyo or eben in other cities like Osaka?
That’s absolutely correct 👍
Can you purchase a narita airport with a suica card?
You can try to locate one at the Narita Airport arrivals
Is the welcome suica card good to be used in Osaka and Kyoto?
Yes 😊

Hello! Can you withdraw from a Apple wallet Sucia card via atm while in Tokyo/Osaka? Is there phone card reader on the ATM similar to the US?
Hi, no withdrawals with an apple wallet SUICA or even with the normal SUICA
If you want withdrawals you'd need to check with your bank or get something like a Revolut card
How do I add Tokyo 1 - day pass to welcome Suica card if I get it? I have an android phone
The 1 day pass and Welcome SUICA are both physical cards so you dont need to use your phone, you will have to purchase them separately
