Chengdu students' visa for free travel to Japan

From July 1 2009, Japan began to issue "individual tourist visas" to China citizens (excluding visa-free areas such as Hongkong, Macau and Taiwan Province Province). On July, 2065438 1 day, the Japanese government further relaxed the standards for issuing individual tourist visas, and citizens all over the country can apply for free travel.

Due to the increasing number of Japanese tourists visiting China in recent years, the voice of choosing more diversified tourism products is getting higher and higher. Japan decided to implement the "individual tourist visa" system for Japanese tourists with few people and free sightseeing. Different from group tours, individuals can decide their own destinations and hotels without a tour guide, but tourists visiting Japan for non-tourism purposes (business, visiting relatives and friends, etc.). ) does not belong to this visa.

Individual tourist visa holders stay in Japan for less than 15 days, excluding the arrival date. In addition, the family travel system will be abolished at the same time as the individual tourist visa begins.

Those who intend to apply for an individual tourist visa should apply through a travel agency or visa application agency designated by embassies and consulates in China (Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenyang, Chongqing, Dalian and Qingdao). The embassy or consulate will not accept the direct application without travel agency or visa application agency.

Citizens and their families (within the third degree of kinship) within the jurisdiction of the above-mentioned embassies and consulates can apply. There is no limit to the number of participants. Please consult the designated travel agency for specific regulations. In addition, when applying for a personal tourist visa, you need to book a round-trip air ticket and a hotel to stay in Japan through a designated travel agency or visa application agency.
