Tokyo Subway Ticket: 24, 48, or 72 hours?
Direct answer
Choose the shortest Tokyo Subway Ticket that covers your continuous block of Tokyo Metro and Toei Subway travel. Each ticket runs for 24, 48, or 72 hours from first use—not by calendar day—and does not cover JR or private railway trips.

Adult ¥2,000 · Child ¥1,000Start time matters: every option begins at first use. A late first entry can still work when the remaining 24, 48, or 72 hours match your plans, but calendar dates alone do not define the ticket window.
Before choosing a duration
Check coverage and purchase eligibility
Count only Tokyo Metro and Toei Subway trips
JR lines, private railways and buses are outside the Tokyo Subway Ticket and need a separate ticket or IC card payment.
Use the ticket only if you meet the visitor conditions
The ticket is offered to overseas visitors and qualifying domestic visitors who live outside Tokyo, Kanagawa, Saitama, Chiba, Ibaraki, Tochigi, Gunma and Yamanashi.
Compare actual fares, not a fixed ride count
Tokyo Metro IC fares change with distance, so the same number of rides can produce different totals. Add the fares for the covered trips you expect to take.
Use your own route fares
Compare the ticket with Suica or PASMO
Enter your expected covered subway fares in the TripWorth comparison tool. It compares the matching 24, 48 or 72-hour ticket with pay-as-you-go IC card travel without assuming one average fare.

Before you travel
Check calendar timing and JR coverage
Does a 72-hour Tokyo Subway Ticket cover three calendar days?
Not necessarily. It remains valid for 72 continuous hours from first use, so it can cross calendar dates without being tied to three separate calendar days.
Can I use a Tokyo Subway Ticket on the JR Yamanote Line?
No. Tokyo Subway Tickets cover Tokyo Metro and Toei Subway lines; JR and private railway trips need a separate fare or IC card payment.
