    When does the 7 day window start?

    On the activation date you choose at the exchange office, not when you order.

    Can I extend a 7 day pass?

    No, but you can order a 14 day pass instead before your trip.

    Is 7 days enough for Japan?

    For a Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka loop with a side trip, yes. For Hokkaido and Kyushu, a 14 day pass is safer.
