Hi,
I will be traveling to Japan for a business meeting with my parent company. I have a short term visa (90 days max stay ) under "temporary visitor" category. Am I eligible to use JR pass? The visa does not say if it is a short term business visa or a short term tourist visa. Doesn't Japan distinguish the two categories?
Japan railways site says that only foreigners who come for "sightseeing" under "temporary visitor" entry status can use JR pass. It's quite confusing as to how they distinguish "business" and "sightseeing" under the same "temporary visitor" category.
Regards
Deepak
