Where can I get my cell & tablet repaired if I break it in Japan?

“I dropped my phone and the screen cracked.”

“Suddenly, the phone won’t turn on.”

If your phone breaks while you are in Japan, you will be in a lot of trouble.

It is difficult to use verizon wireless or AT&T Mobility’s Mobile insurance in Japan.

Have you ever tried to send your phone to the Apple Store or other manufacturers for repair, but your data is initialized or you are told to initialize it?

In addition to that, it is inconvenient if it takes a long time to get your device back.

If this is the case, consider having it repaired at a private repair store.

What are the criteria for a reliable cellphone repair store in Japan?

The standard for a reliable cellphone repair store in Japan is whether or not it is registered as a “Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications Registered Repairer”.

In order to repair iPhones in Japan, it is necessary to meet the strict standards set by the Radio Law and the Telecommunications Business Law.

If they meet these standards, they are registered as a “Registered Repairer” by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications.

If you use an iPhone that has been repaired at a repair store that is not registered, you may be charged with a crime.

When sending your iPhone for repair, always check if the shop is registered first.
