Why does this charge appear?
NTT Docomo Japan uses the shortened descriptor "DOCOMO*" on bank statements because their billing system is configured to transmit only the brand identifier within the limited character space allowed by payment processors, dropping the parent company prefix "NTT" entirely. The asterisk following DOCOMO is a standard delimiter used by Docomo's payment gateway to separate the brand name from any additional transaction reference codes that may follow, a common practice among Japanese mobile carriers processing high volumes of monthly recurring charges. If you see this descriptor alongside a charge of around ¥3000, it almost certainly represents your regular NTT Docomo monthly mobile subscription fee for service in Japan.
