Yes, MAXRoam works in Japan. However, to use MAXRoam in Japan requires a 3GSM (or 3G) mobile phone that supports WCDMA 2100. This is still a GSM phone, however it is using 3rd generation technology which is deployed in Japan. There are 2 different 3G standards presently in use. To ensure that you have the correct phone for roaming in South Korea, it is advisable that you check with either your current network operator, or preferably refer to their mobile’s handbook to determine whether or not it is WCDMA 2100 compatible.
