Quick Tip: Your "Trip to Japan" voucher and the email aren't your golden tickets in Japan. Keep an eye out for the Paper Exchange Order that we mail – that’s your key.
After your purchase with "Trip to Japan", you've got a 90-day timeframe to turn that Exchange Order into a tangible JR Pass at any Official Exchange Office in Japan.
Once you've got the pass in hand, there's a month-long period to activate and start your travels.
The dates you mark on our calendar? They’re simply letting us know when you're setting foot in Japan, not when you're activating the JR Pass.
Each traveler will get their own Paper Exchange Order.
This is crafted for those holding non-Japanese passports and stamped with a "Temporary Visitor" Visa. If you're a non-Japanese passport holder but have set up a permanent nest in Japan, this pass isn't for you.
A heads-up: That "Temporary Visitor" Stamp is crucial. When going through immigration, skip those fancy automated gates to ensure you get the stamp.
For our Japanese friends living overseas for a decade or more, you're in luck. The JR Pass is available if you have 1) a valid Japanese passport and 2) a document proving your long-term overseas residence.
