To do this I would have to an ATM before going to the Japan rail office at NRT.

Thank you.

Will you be using a Japan Rail Pass？ If so,the pass is good for use on Narita Express. Just get a reserved seat when you get your railpass at Narita. You can also get Narita Express tickets using your Suica at the ticket booth.
