A mobile communication terminal includes a measuring portion measuring intensity of received radio waves that are radio waves received from base stations, a selecting portion selecting one of the base stations to which a request for location registration of the mobile communication terminal should be sent, and a requesting portion sending the request to the base station selected by the selecting portion. When the request is sent, the selecting portion initially selects a first base station of the base stations whose received radio wave has the highest intensity measured by the measuring portion, and, subsequently if the location registration in accordance with the request sent to one of the base stations has failed, the selecting portion selects a second base station of the base stations whose received radio wave has intensity lower than the intensity of the received radio wave from the one of the base stations.
