Hi Daniel san, we are planning to go Japan from 30 April to 20 May 2023. Our trip starts from Tokyo and ends in Fukuoka.
If we buy the Whole Japan JR Pass now and start to book seat reservation immediately?
Will the 14 days JR PASS date count starts from today or from 30th April?
regards
Hi there,
Your activation date start when you exchange the JR Pass in Japan, for seat reservations please see here.
Hope this helps!

Hi Daniel-san, thanks for your reply. Can I buy the JR Pass online in Singapore on 30 March and make train seats reservation online for trains for 30 April? If yes which website can I do both online purchase of the JR Pass plus make train seat reservations?
We will only arrive Narita on 30 April but that being the Golden Week we are worried that we cannot get seats on trains from Tokyo Station to Ashikaga Flower Park and Hitachi Seaside Park. Is there any way that we could make train seat reservations already one month ahead of our arrival into Japan?
