Hi
I arrive in Japan from the UK on 30th August. On arrival at Haneda airport, does my Passport need to be stamped in order to use my JR Pass?

Hi there,

You need to have a temporary visitor visa in order to use the JR Pass. Most visitors will get this upon arrival, or you can apply for one at your local embassy.

Kind regards,
Daniel
