Hello Carlos,

Sorry, I do not speak your language but have used Google Translate to move to English.

Hello
Our trip to Japan is scheduled to arrive on October 4, 2025, and end on October 21, 2025.
My wife and I are traveling with our 11-year-old daughter (she turns 12 on August 29, 2025).
The plan is to purchase a 7-day Japan Railpass, starting on October 9 and ending on October 15 (7 days).

Questions:
1) If I buy the Japan Railpasses now, would they be 2 for adults and 1 for a minor? Since my daughter is currently 11 years old, is that correct?
2) Can I purchase the passes now even though there are more than 90 days until our trip?
3) Will the passes arrive by mail in Argentina before the trip, and then can I redeem and activate them in Narita upon our arrival?

Well, I'm waiting for your answers because I'm not sure whether to purchase them now or wait until 90 days before the trip. I've read that I can buy them and leave them on standby until I'm within the 90 days I'm going to use them.

Thanks
Carlos

Here are my answers:

1.) The issue date for the pass is leading, to see if someone qualifies for a child pass. Note that passes can only issued 3 months before travel date but it should be fine if you order somewhere in August.

2.) You can, but they will be issued later (around 80 days before your trip).

3.) Yes

Kind regards,
Daniel
