  1. Masala<\/strong> – Bring Indian spices and masala powders.<\/li>\n\n\n\n

        • Basic Medicines<\/strong>\n
            \n

            • If your phone has 4G capability, you can use it in Japan.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Bank Cards<\/strong>\n
                \n
              • Take your chip-based Visa\/Mastercard debit cards to withdraw money (Japanese yen) from ATMs in Japan.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
