Starting in May 2024, Japan will introduce the 'Tourist Pasmo', a prepaid transport card designed specifically for foreign tourists. The card, which will be valid for 28 days, aims to facilitate cashless travel across the country. It can be purchased at major airports, including Narita Airport for 2,000 yen and Haneda Airport for amounts ranging from 1,000 yen to 10,000 yen. Users will not need to pay a deposit, although any remaining balance on the card will not be refunded. This new offering follows the discontinuation of the previous 'Pasmo Passport' card for short-term visitors. The 'Tourist Pasmo' features a stylish design with kanji characters associated with travel, making it a potential souvenir for tourists. The card will be accepted on various public transport systems nationwide that support IC cards, similar to the existing Suica card, which also has a tourist version called 'Welcome Suica'.
