Hello,
I purchased a 14-day JR Pass, and I received my voucher. I noticed that only my first and last names are listed, as the agency I purchased it from insisted that a middle name is not needed for JR Pass. However, my Passport does list my First, Middle, and Last name - and I heard that when exchanging my voucher for a JR Pass in Japan, the agent does check the voucher name against the passport and even asks you to fill out a separate form - where you are asked to list your first, middle, and last names.
Could this pose a potential problem that my JR Exchange Voucher doesn't have my middle name listed? I would have entered it, but the website I purchased it from didn't even have a space to put my middle name in.
Has anyone been in a similar situation?
Thanks!
