Confusion about "Temporary Visitor Visa"

Hello
I am going to be in Japan in June, visiting Tokyo to Hiroshima. It seems like the best idea to get the JR National Pass but it says I need to have a Temporary Visitor Visa. I am not sure what this means or how to get it, or if customs will stamp my passport. If this is too confusing I'd be happy to clear up my thoughts

Hi there,

The Temporary Visitor Visa is basically the stamp you receive when landing in Japan. Unless you applied for a different visa, this is the visa you'll receive. So you can use the JR Pass without worry.

Kind regards,
Daniel
