Hello , I want to know if I active the card on Monday at 17 pm I can use it from Monday 17 pm to Monday 17 pm for the next week?
Thank you

Hi there,

The pass is counted in days (not hours) and the first day is counted as a full day, no matter what time you start using it. E.g. starting the JR Pass on a Monday, will mean that the last day of travel is the following Sunday.
