Japan runs one of the world's most open short-stay regimes, which makes Beautyworld Osaka straightforward to attend for most international buyers. Citizens of more than 70 countries and regions — the United States, United Kingdom, all EU states, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Korea, Singapore, Brazil and most of Europe — enter visa-free for short-term business and tourism stays of up to 90 days; several ASEAN nationals receive 15 days. Travellers from countries without a waiver (including China, India, the Philippines, Vietnam, Russia and much of the Middle East and Africa) need a short-term visa (tanki shōnin) issued by a Japanese embassy or consulate before departure; applications are normally supported by an invitation letter or confirmed event registration and take 5–10 working days. Carry a passport valid for the whole stay, your organiser badge confirmation, hotel booking and return flight details. Complete Japan's Visit Japan Web immigration and customs QR forms before departure to clear Kansai International Airport faster, and keep the QR codes offline on your phone.
