Getting started

This is an Express Pass add-on, not a park entry ticket. After purchasing, you’ll receive a QR code via email—save it on your phone or print it out.

Arrival

Arrive at the Universal Studios Japan main gate at least 30 minutes before your earliest Express Pass time slot. Security checks are standard and include bag scans.
