I’m new here and i have to book a train trough Stockholm-Copenhagen. On the interrail site it says that for some reasons i cant book the reservation. Went to SJ and theres a lot of seats not taken for that train. But on SJ support it says you need a paper pass with a cover number to be able to book only the seats on SJ. I saw this generate pass cover number thing and i got a code, but im wondering if its legit and i can write it in and use it? Or if they will ask me about it on the train? I’m sorry if its a confusing question but i’ve had problems with interrail all day and is currently kind of stressed hahaha… thank you!

The Pass Cover Number generator is issued by Interrail/Eurail so you are fine using it. 

However, the SJ website will accept anything that you write in the field for the pass cover number.

Oh I didn’t know that, as it stated clearly on SJ that you needed that number from a paper pass. So I was unsure! But thank you so much! :D
