Device Compatibility for International Roaming

📢 All devices can be used normally in Japan. “Compatible for use overseas” refers specifically to compatibility with docomo’s international roaming VoLTE voice calling service while outside Japan.

Since Japan and many other countries have discontinued 3G services, your device must support VoLTE calling in order to use docomo’s international roaming voice service.

⚠️ Some devices may not work at all overseas, while others may only be able to receive SMS but cannot make or receive voice calls.
