Can you buy Shinkansen tickets on the day of travel?
If you have plans to travel in Japan but haven't arranged your Shinkansen tickets yet, the bullet train is the optimal choice for comfortable and efficient travel across the country. We provide services that ensure international visitors can smoothly and reliably book their Shinkansen tickets for the following days.
Secure your tickets now!
Same-day tickets can be purchased at the station if seats are available. However, as Shinkansen are commonly used by business people on weekdays and tourists on weekends, it is possible that you may not get a seat on your desired train, or all seats might be fully booked if purchasing on the day.
We recommend buying as early as possible. If you need to purchase Shinkansen tickets urgently for tomorrow or later, please use our FAST SERVICE. Book your tickets in advance and board the Shinkansen with peace of mind on the day of your travel.

Seat guide
Reserved Seat (Ordinary Reserved Seat)
Your seat is reserved and secured when you book your tickets, allowing you to head to the station with peace of mind.
Think of it as "economy class" seating.
Green Reserved Seat
Enjoy better seats and free blankets. Popular among Japanese business people, executives, and those who prefer a comfortable travel experience.
Consider it "business class" seating.
GranClass
Known as the "First Class" of Shinkansen seats.
Available only on the Hokuriku and Tohoku Shinkansen lines, these seats offer airline-like amenities and meals (only on select trains).
They are the most expensive option.
Unreserved Seat
You can take any open seat in the unreserved cars on the departure date (no departure time will be indicated on your ticket).
This is the best option if cost is your priority and you are traveling during less crowded seasons or times.
