Will I have signal at the Nakasu yatai stalls by the river?

Yes. Central Fukuoka, including the Nakasu riverside where the yatai food stalls set up each evening, has strong coverage. You can translate handwritten menus, split the bill and share photos of your ramen without hunting for wifi.

Can I use the same eSIM for day trips around Kyushu?

Yes. This is one national Japan plan, so it works right across Kyushu at no extra cost — from Dazaifu's shrine to the hot springs of Beppu or the volcanic views at Mount Aso. One eSIM covers the whole island and beyond.

Good to know in Fukuoka

Fukuoka Airport is just two subway stops from Hakata Station — one of the shortest airport-to-city hops anywhere — so your eSIM has you reading ramen-stall menus and subway maps barely ten minutes after landing.

Two simple ways to buy

Fukuoka eSIM plans: unlimited, or by the GB.

Every Fukuoka eSIM from My Holiday SIM is one of two straightforward types. Pick whichever fits how you travel in Fukuoka — you can always top up or switch on your next trip.

Unlimited plans

High-speed data, nothing to count

Priced per day — the longer you stay, the better the daily rate. Ideal for streaming, hotspot and longer trips where you'd rather not watch a data meter. A fair-use policy keeps speeds fast for everyone; see each plan for the detail.

Best for streaming, video calls & hotspot
Great for longer or open-ended trips
One price per day — no GB anxiety

By-the-GB plans

A set bundle, brilliant value

A fixed data allowance (say 3 GB or 10 GB) valid for your travel days. The best-value pick for lighter trips built around maps, messaging and a bit of browsing. Running low? Top up in a couple of taps — nothing to reinstall.

Fukuoka eSIM: your local data guide.

Fukuoka is Kyushu's warm, food-obsessed capital, and its airport sits so close to the centre that you'll want data working the instant you land. A Fukuoka eSIM keeps maps, translation and reviews running as you hunt tonkotsu ramen at Nakasu's riverside yatai stalls, shop the Tenjin arcades, or day-trip out to the plum-tree shrine at Dazaifu.

One eSIM for Fukuoka and all of Japan. It's the national Japan eSIM — from $3.14/day with unlimited data, working the same in Fukuoka as it does the moment you leave it.

Landing at Fukuoka Airport (FUK)?

Install the QR at home, then switch the eSIM on as you taxi in — you're online before you reach the arrivals hall.

The practical bit

Getting around Fukuoka on your eSIM.

Apps you'll want online in Fukuoka

my route— Nishitetsu and Toyota's Fukuoka MaaS app bundles buses, trains and taxis; fully data-driven.
Google Maps— Routes Fukuoka's compact subway and Nishitetsu buses and trains citywide; live navigation needs data.
GO— Japan's main taxi app for hailing and paying for Fukuoka cabs; requires mobile data.
DiDi— Widely used ride-hailing across Fukuoka and Kyushu; summoning and payment run on data.

How long to stay in Fukuoka

Fukuoka typically fills two to three days, enough for Tenjin and Hakata, the yatai food stalls and Ohori Park, while also serving as your gateway to wider Kyushu.

How much data for Fukuoka

Fukuoka is compact and easy to get around, so a balanced 3-5 GB comfortably covers maps, translation and food-hunting; a light 1 GB suffices for a short, simple city break.

Coverage in Fukuoka

Being unusually central, Fukuoka has strong 5G across Hakata, Tenjin, the subway and the nearby airport, but signal thins on the outlying islands like Nokonoshima and Shikanoshima and out across rural Kyushu's hills.

Peace of mind

Your Fukuoka eSIM: data-only, zero bill shock.

Your Fukuoka eSIM handles the internet while you travel. Your home number stays exactly where it is — no surprise roaming charges in Fukuoka, no swapping your real SIM out.

Keep your number & WhatsApp

The eSIM is data-only and runs alongside your home SIM. Your number, iMessage and WhatsApp keep working exactly as they do at home.

No roaming bills, ever

Turn data roaming OFF on your home SIM and ON for the eSIM. You pay once, up front — no overage, no metered surprises, no bill waiting when you land home.

One thing worth knowing

Because it's data-only, the eSIM can't receive bank verification (OTP) text codes — those still go to your home number. Keep it reachable on Wi-Fi calling, or use app-based codes.
