Gaijin Card 

While rules of social conduct are very strict in Japan, if you are obviously a foreigner, the general populace will let you get away with breaches in conduct they normally wouldn't forgive.
Using this special status is called "flashing (or showing) your gaijin card."
My visiting friend just flashed her gaijin card and a smile, and stumbled through the ticket gates without paying.
