Hand Stamp Re-entry (再入園スタンプのルール - Sai-nyūen)

Park Re-entry Stamps

🏰 Meaning & Background

The official re-entry system allowing guests to leave the park and return later on the same day. Guests must have their hands stamped with a special invisible ink that glows under UV light at the exit gates.

📜 Cultural Origins

Created to offer flexible mobility for guests dining at nearby shopping malls (like Ikspiari) or resting at partner hotels, while utilizing invisible UV-reactive hand stamps to prevent ticket sharing and fraud.

🚨 Correct Etiquette & Taboos

1. Head to the exit gates and tell the cast member: 'Sai-nyūen shitai desu' (I want to re-enter). 2. They will stamp the back of your hand with invisible, waterproof ink. 3. To return, scan your ticket at the re-entry lane and place your hand under the UV scanner.

イクスピアリでランチを食べるために一度パークを出るので、出口で手の甲にスタンプを押してもらいましょう。 / 再入園する時も、当日のパークチケット(QRコード)が必要なので捨てないでくださいね。
