   * [[https://www.mobal.com/japan-esims/|Mobal]] **voice and data eSIM plans ONLY** support roaming SMS and voice, for a 990 yen fee per roaming **activation**. You must be on the docomo eSIM plans for this. SoftBank physical SIMs do not qualify. Sending phone calls and SMS is an additional fee, but receiving SMS outside of the country is free.
     * The cheaper "voice lite" plan does NOT support this feature even though it's an eSIM.
-    * A current Mobal subscriber could not find the entrypoint to activate this feature. On activation, there is a flow that asks you if you want to enable roaming, but it is unclear if this can be enabled retroactively, or if it applies to eSIMs on docomo prior to their addition of the feature.
+    * If your existing Mobal eSIM doesn't support this, contact Mobal support.
+===== Old providers =====
+  * [[https://ifmobile.jp/|IFMobile]] works for existing subscribers, but did not complete activation for a new customer in April 2026.
