There have been a lot of changes to Japan’s entry requirements in the past year. From Covid requirements to 2 week quarantines, those nightmarish measures are a thing of the past and regular tourism has been restored in Japan! But, while a lot of the tough measures have been removed, there are still quite a few important things you need to know in order to make your first hours in Japan as painless as possible!
I’ll categorize them into two key sections. The first will cover things to prepare before your entry to Japan, and the second will highlight what to do as soon as you arrive.
So, this video will help you prepare for traveling to Japan.
