Visa Applications
To apply for a visa, the applicant must apply in person to an embassy or
consulate. There is no system by which a proxy can carry out the application
procedures in Japan.
When applying for a visa at an embassy or consulate, the documents to be
submitted or shown differ according to the purposes of the visit, so please make
inquiries to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or an embassy or consulate
beforehand and then apply with the necessary documents.
When applying for a visa at an embassy or consulate, you might be requested to
submit documents in addition to those mentioned in this pamphlet. Also, please
note that applications might not be accepted if documents are inadequate.
Japan has seven types of visa, including two types of visa for short-term stays. Working
visas are issued for 14 statuses of residence. There are also
cases where a visa is not necessary for landing permission. Purposes for entering Japan are broadly divided into
those requiring short-term stays, such as tourism, and other purposes, such as
work, necessitating long-term stays.
