How long is the validity of the Japanese visitor visa?

The visa for visiting relatives in Japan is valid for 3 months. A single short-term visa is valid for three months. Dateofissue and dateofexpiry in the upper right corner are expiration dates. You must go to Japan within the validity period, otherwise the visa will be invalid. How many days you can stay in Japan depends on the forstayof at the bottom of the validity period, which is divided into three grades: 15 days, 30 days and 90 days. Writing a few days means you can stay in Japan for a few days. The number of days to stay in Japan is counted from the day you arrive in Japan. Even if you arrive in Japan on the last day of visa validity, you can stay 15, 30, 90 days.

Japanese visas are generally valid for 90 days, and the stay time is 15 days. The validity period is divided into the latest time from the date of signing to entry and the stay time after entry. The validity period is calculated from the date of signature, and the stay period is calculated from the second day after entry. After the Japanese visa expires, you can no longer stay in Japan, and you need to enter and leave the country again to get the stay time. If the validity period runs out, you can't enter Japan again and need to apply for a new visa. In principle, you can apply for a second visa immediately after returning to Japan for the first time, without interval. The only restriction is that the total number of days you stay in Japan cannot exceed 180 days, no matter how many times you apply for a Japanese visa to visit relatives and friends, within 365 days from the day you first entered Japan.
