I just purchased my JR Rail pass and have noticed my middle name is not on the ticket . My passport has my first name middle name and my last name. Can I still use this ticket or do I have to cancel it and reorder a new one

Hi there,
In Japan, it is uncommon to have a middle name and therefore we don't ask for it.
As long as your first and last name match, then you can use the JR Pass.
Kind regards,
Daniel
