Dear Sir,
I plan to use the paperless entry system when arriving in Japan.

How should I activate jR if there is no tourist sticker /temporary visitor sticker on my passport?

Please advise.

Thank you

Lind a

Hi Linda,

You'll have to get a Temporary visitor (V) visa in your passport. Please ask the staff upon arrival.

Else, you will not be able to use the JR Pass.

Kind regards,
Daniel
