Electronic tourist visa to Japan

Currently, many foreign nationals require a visa to enter Japan for tourism purposes. However, certain categories of travelers can take advantage of an e-visa, which can be applied for online from the comfort of their homes. This visa allows you to stay in the country for up to 90 days.

The Japanese government has introduced the e-visa system in order to simplify the visa process for foreign tourists and increase the flow of travelers to the country. Eligible e-visa applicants can easily apply online from any device with a network connection. During the application process, applicants may be invited for an interview at the nearest Japanese consulate or embassy corresponding to their place of residence.

An e-visa notification in original digital form is required for entry into the country. Screenshots or PDF copies of this notice will not be accepted.
