we will be travelling to japan shortly, for 12 days. my wife holds a thai passport and according to a very recent bi-lateral agreement between both countries will not require a visa to enter japan. however, the jr website (under 'eligibility') sort of indicates that thai citizens do require something like a 'visitor' visa in order to use a jr pass..... can you clarify this for us? thank you!!!

Hi there!
The JR Pass does require anyone that wishes to make use of it to enter Japan under a tourist visa. Many countries have an agreement with Japan that specifies that these nationalities are exempt from having to apply for a visa before entering Japan (also knows as visa waiver program), instead your visa is stamped in your passport the moment that you pass trough immigration.
As a Thai passport holder you will now receive a 15 day tourist Visa upon entering Japan, which will allow you to make use of the JR Pass.
I hope this helps!
Daniel
