Pasmo cards, like Suica cards, are the answer to the prayers of anyone who has ever frantically patted themselves down for small change upon approaching a train-station ticket turnstile, or confidently produced a paper ticket only to find it’s a shop receipt. What is a Pasmo card?
Pasmo and Suica cards can be used nationwide. They are valid on many JR and non-JR trains in Kyoto, Osaka, Sapporo, Fukuoka, and several other cities outside of Tokyo. Click here to view a map of the areas where you can use a Suica card, and here to see what regions accept Pasmo.
A lot of convenience stores all over Japan accept Pasmo or Suica cards as payment for purchases. There are also vending machines that have card readers so that you can buy drinks and snacks using your IC card. There are even coin lockers at the airports, train stations, and some tourist attractions that can be rented using it too!
A special version of Pasmo, called Pasmo Passport, is available to foreign tourists. The special cards are valid for only four weeks, come without a deposit fee, but do not allow for refunds. Icoca is the prepaid IC card of JR West for JR trains in the Kansai (incl. Osaka and Kyoto), Chugoku and Hokuriku regions.
THE Pasmo CARD. The Pasmo is a type of transportation charge card. There are train station machines that issue them for a small fee, 1000 yen to be exact (500 yen for the card + 500 deposit that you can use immediately)).
Not as helpful. There actually is a difference, no one seems to know about. The Pasmo card, which is issued by Tokyo Metro, can be used to store day-passes. So Rather than having to deal with the paper ticket, you can just tap in and out with the convinience of an IC card, but with the affordability of a day-pass.
Wherever you can use SUICA, you can use Pasmo, and vice versa. Same with charging with new amounts. The only time when it matters which card to have is when you don't need the card anymore and you need to return it for the refund of the ¥500 deposit.
The Pasmo Passport is only valid for 28 days, and, unlike the ordinary Pasmo, it can’t be handed in for a refund. Happily, the ultra-Japanese design (featuring Hello Kitty and other Sanrio characters) means that it makes a sweet souvenir.
