Other nationalities should confirm their status on the MOFA visa index or via the nearest Japanese embassy, which lists short-term visit visa categories for tourism, business, conferences and study.
Processing: Varies by nationality; apply several weeks before travel.
The Japanese embassy in the U.S. notes that short-term visit applicants may need to supply at least one month of bank statements and that employment or earning certificates are not accepted in place of a bank statement. Requirements can vary by nationality and purpose of visit, so check the MOFA index and your local Japanese embassy before booking.
