Question about JDM Fit - Keyless go

I just bought a imported JDM version Fit, as y'all know, JDM Hondas always equipped with the best options than anywhere else. My car has this keyless go function, which is bacially a keyless ignition & locks. There's a smart card I need to carry with me, and I don't need a key. But my question is, what happen if I break my smart card? because today I dropped it and also stepped on it by accident, and I heard cracking sound... damn I was shitting bricks, seriously! You have no idea if that card broke, and I have to go all the way back home to pick up the actual key to drive the car. So what if that card really broke? or damaged?? where and how can I get a replacement? As I stated earlier, I imported this JDM Fit, so I don't live in Japan obviously... Does that happen to any of you here that can share with me?

I would assume that you would be able to obtain a replacement from a dealer in Japan, but would probably have to bring the car to them as there's got to be some sort of code they need to program a new smart card to.

That being said, I would check with on Fitta'er HK website (index) as there's bound to be other people with imports in HK as well as you.

My mechanic cracked mine. another should be able to be programmed and I am sure there are places available to program these cards just like how they program new/duplicate keys as the fit like a lot of other new vehicles come equipped with immobilizers, there is a chip inside the key that has to be read and recognized in order for the car to start. these keys are programmable as if u make a mere duplicate it wont work.I'm sure the same applies for the smart cards.
My fit came with a smart card and two keys.one key with a button for keyless entry and another which has to be literally put in and turned like conventional keys.
